Acute Posterior Multifocal Placoid Pigment Epitheliopathy Complicated by Fatal Cerebral Vasculitis: Response

Abstract

In any case, we acknowledge that the importance of smoking in the pathophysiology of APMPPE-associated vasculitis may have been underrecognized and underreported to date, and we encourage all readers of our report, and of the subsequent discussion associated therewith, to take note of this. We again thank Dr. Knox for astutely raising awareness of this topic.
