title: Progressive subretinal fibrosis and multifocal granulomatous chorioretinitis.
abstract: We describe a case of progressive subretinal fibrosis and multifocal chorioretinitis along with its findings on both fluorescein and indocyanine green angiography. The progressive subretinal fibrosis syndrome is a severe subset of multifocal choroiditis. The clustering of lesions around the nerve optic head may mean that the disease is spread through the flow in and out of the eye around the optic nerve.
