title: [Central serous chorioretinopathy: clinical-anatomic correlations].
abstract: BACKGROUND
  Central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR) is a retinal disease characterized by a serous retinal detachment (SRD) responsible for a macular syndrome in young patients, often in the context of stress. In our study, we aimed to describe through multimodal analysis the clinical, angiographic and tomographic characteristics of CSCR while identifying prognostic factors and highlighting functional-anatomic correlations.
  
  
  METHODS
  We conducted a retrospective, descriptive and analytic study over a period of 6 years on 35 eyes of 34 patients with CSCR. The simultaneous analysis of clinical exams and imaging allowed for correlation between the anatomic lesions and visual function.
  
  
  RESULTS
  A correlation was found between the leakage point on angiography and pigment epithelial detachments (PED) in 8 eyes (28.5%), and retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) irregularities in 6 eyes (21.4%) on optical coherence tomography (OCT). Factors associated with poor functional outcome were: poor initial visual acuity, greater subretinal fluid height (P=0.054), presence of highly reflective dots on OCT within the SRD (P<0.05) and the number of PED's (P=0.008).
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Although CRSC often a resolves spontaneously, the functional prognosis can be affected by macular sequellae. A comprehensive assessment of the anatomical lesions is essential to detect poor prognostic factors.
