Chronic Central Serous Chorioretinopathy-Like Maculopathy as Atypical Presentation of Chorioretinal Folds

Purpose: The purpose of this case report was to present the clinical data and management of a 69-year-old female patient with chorioretinal folds who developed chronic central serous chorioretinopathy-like maculopathy. Case Presentation: A 69-year-old female patient presented with a recent-onset slight decrease in visual acuity in her left eye. Her past ocular history was clear. Regarding her medical history, she had only hypertension, treated with per os medications. The patient underwent a complete ophthalmological examination. At presentation, the visual acuity was 6/6 in the right eye and 6/7.5 in the left eye. Intraocular pressure was 16 mm Ηg in both eyes. On fundoscopy, chorioretinal folds were noticed in the left eye. Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography, fluorescein angiography, and indocyanine green angiography confirmed the diagnosis of chronic central serous chorioretinopathy-like maculopathy in the left eye, since other causes of chorioretinal folding were excluded. The right eye was normal. No treatment was given to the patient, and at the 6-month follow-up there was improvement in visual acuity, which was 6/6, and decreased subretinal fluid. Conclusions: Central serous chorioretinopathy-like maculopathy should be taken into account for the differential diagnosis of patients with chorioretinal folds.
