Abstract
POLYPOIDAL CHOROIDAL vasculopathy (PCV)1-10 is a distinct clinical entity characterized by persistent, recurrent serous leakage and hemorrhage in the macula in the elderly population, caused by a peculiar form of choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in the inner choroid. Indocyanine green (ICG) angiography clearly demonstrates polypoidal and aneurysmal dilations of the terminals of the branching vascular network from the choroidal circulation in PCV.2,10-12Keywords
