Posterior non-vascularized proliferative extraretinopathy and peripheral nodular retinal telangiectasis.
Peripheral telangiectatic nodules in the inferotemporal retina were associated with proliferation of posterior fibrocellular epiretinal membranes in seven eyes of five patients. The membranes showed great variation in their extent (localized or widespread), their location (epimacular, paramacular or peripapillary), and their effects (no effect, underlying retinal striation or full-thickness retinal folding). Pars plana vitrectomy and membrane peeling was performed in three eyes.
