title: Types of central serous retinopathy, analysis of shape, topographic distribution and number of leakage sites.
abstract: The analysis of 212 fluorescein angiograms of the same number of eyes showed that Type I is by far the most prevalent form of central serous retinopathy. Type I appeared in 92.45%, Type II in 6.60% and the Intermediate type in 0.95% of the examined eyes. The patients were mostly male (81.13%) between 30 and 49 years of age (95.28%). The number of leakage sites in Type I central serous retinopathy varied from 1 (83.67%) to 5 (1.02%). Solitary leakage appeared in 83.67%, while uniform spreading of fluorescein into the subretinal blister in Type I central serous retinopathy appeared in 85.71% of eyes. Most leakage sites (32.50%) were located in the upper nasal quadrant, while the lower temporal quadrant was least affected (15.83%). The foveal avascular zone was affected in 4.14% and the papillomacular bundle in 20.83% of the examined eyes.
