Central serous chorioretinopathy: a pathogenetic model

Despite numerous studies describing predominantly its demography and clinical course, many aspects of central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR) remain unclear. Perhaps the major impediment to finding an effective therapy is the difficulty of performing studies with large enough cohorts, which has meant that clinicians have focused more on therapy than on a deeper understanding of the pathogenesis...

Atypical Central Serous Chorioretinopathy

Bullous central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR) is a rare variant of CSCR characterized by severe serous retinal detachment which especially involves the inferior quadrants. Corticosteroid therapy administered for systemic or ocular misdiagnoses may induce and exacerbate CSCR. The purpose of this study was to report diagnosis and treatment results of an unusual case of bullous CSCR induced by s...

Central serous chorioretinopathy.

BACKGROUND Central serous chorioretinopathy is a condition typically affecting young adults between 25 and 50 years of age. It is predominating in type A personality trait men. Central serous chorioretinopathy is defined clinically as a detachment of the sensory retina that is commonly unilateral but can also be bilateral. Laser photocoagulation has been used widely with central serous choriore...

Central serous chorioretinopathy.

The pathogenesis of central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) is still not fully understood. The involvement of corticosteroids is undisputed, although their exact role has not been clarified; other parts of the underlying mechanism of CSC have been mainly elucidated by imaging techniques such as fluorescein and indocyanine green angiography. Even though most cases of CSC are self-limiting, severe...
