Indocyanine green angiography for the detection of subretinal nematodes in diffuse unilateral subacute neuroretinitis (DUSN).
OBJECTIVE
Observational case-report on the clinical, fluorescein and indocyanine green angiographic findings in a patient with a presumed subretinal nematode.


METHODS
Retinography, angiography with sodium fluorescein and Indocyanine green were performed in a 45 year old man who presented with a neurosensory macular detachment. The lesion studied with fluorescein angiography was atypical for a choroidal neovascular membrane but suggestive of ocular cysticercosis. Additional indocyanine green angiography was therefore perfomed.


CONCLUSIONS
Indocyanine green angiography could be a useful tool for the detection of subretinal nematodes.
