title: Multimodal imaging of membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis type II.
abstract: To report the fundus findings on multimodal imaging of a membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis type II (MPGNII) patient. A 41-year-old woman had a medical history of renal transplantation for MPGNII 5 years prior to presentation to our clinic for ophthalmic examination. Fundus examination showed macular retinal pigment epithelial changes and large peripapillary atrophy in the right eye, and yellowish bilateral drusen-like deposits peripherally. Fundus fluorescein angiography and indocyanine green angiography revealed multifocal hyperfluorescence in the peripheral retina with accompanying deposits. A hyperautofluorescence pattern was seen in the fundus autofluorescence (FAF) images of the deposits. Spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) scans of the drusen-like material showed retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) elevations with moderate hyperreflectivity underneath. Multiple imaging modalities of the posterior segment can provide detailed information about the ocular involvement of MPGNII and help us to confirm the diagnosis and to follow the lesions.
