[Retinal pigment epithelial atrophic tracks secondary to central serous pigment epitheliopathy].
OBJECTIVE
We report the cases of three patients with retinal pigment epithelial atrophic tracks secondary to central serous pigment epitheliopathy specially focusing on fluorescein angiographic findings. This entity is considered an atipical manifestation of central serous chorioretinopathy called chronic diffuse retinal pigment epitheliopathy.


CONCLUSIONS
We have studied 69 patients with the diagnose of central serous pigment epiteliopathy in our unit; 10.14% manifested diffuse retinal pigment epitheliopathy and 5.79% showed retinal pigment epithelial atrophic tracks. Both eyes were involved in 100% and all of them were males with a median age of 53.33 years. We can conclude that this entity usually affects adult males and it is frequently bilateral.
