[Analyses of central serous chorioretinopathy from indocyanine green angiography].
OBJECTIVE
To compare and analyse the characters of Indocyanine Green Angiography (ICGA) and Fundus Fluorescein Angiography (FFA) in Central Serous Chorioretinopathy (CSCR) and explore its pathological significance.


METHODS
35 cases of CSCR were examed with Heidelberg Retina Angiography. Simultaneous images of ICGA and FFA were analysed.


RESULTS
Among the 35 cases, 29(83%) revealed more lesions in ICGA than in FFA. The lesions appeared in FFA were all associated with ICGA changes.


CONCLUSIONS
The increasing of choroid hyperpermeability is an early change, which causes the overlying RPE dysfunction and structural damage. Some points related to the laser and medical treatment to CSCR were also discussed.
