“…63 Enhanced depth imaging optical coherence tomography findings of sclerochoroidal calcification are typical. [64][65][66] Fung et al 66 studied 13 eyes at a mean age of 74 years and found that the mass was within the sclera in all cases, causing thinning or complete absence of overlying choroid (mean choroidal thickness 28 mm) ( Table 1) (Figure 8). The lesion showed anterior tumor surface topography elevated with undulating rocky (38%) or rolling (62%) anterior scleral surface.…”

“…4 On FAF, lesions may be hyperautofluorescent, but hypoautofluorescent lesions with a hyperautofluorescent halo have also been observed. 3,10,11 Fung et al 3 hypothesized the hyperautofluorescence was due to thinning of the choroid, revealing hyperautofluorescent sclera or calcific tissue. Another explanation has been proposed by Caminal-Mitjana et al 10 based on correlating FAF and spectral domain-OCT findings.…”

Another explanation has been proposed by Caminal-Mitjana et al 10 based on correlating FAF and spectral domain-OCT findings. The authors assert that choriocapillaris compression by scleral lesions leads to RPE dysfunction and accumulation of lipofuscin, a fluorophore, within the RPE.…”

“…FA findings over lesions may demonstrate hypofluorescence in the arterial phase followed by progressively intensifying hyperfluorescence, possibly due to increased scleral staining around the lesions. 10 In areas of RPE atrophy, the transmission of choroidal vasculature through window defects may be seen. FA may also reveal CNV, a rare association with SCC.…”

A 62-year-old Caucasian male was referred to retina for choroiditis and uveitis. Multiple areas of yellow irregularities were noted on fundus exam throughout the periphery of both eyes, corresponding to lesions at the sclerochoroidal junction on OCT. A diagnosis of sclerochoroidal calcifications (SCC) was confirmed by B-ultrasonography, fundus photography, OCT imaging, and fluorescein and indocyanine green angiography. Systemic metabolic studies were performed, which showed reduced renal function with increased serum calcium; however, SCC lesions in this case were most likely idiopathic. In this work, we report the clinical findings, appearance on multimodal imaging, and systemic associations of sclerochoroidal calcification. Sclerochoroidal calcifications are an unusual clinical finding that tends to be idiopathic, but a focused workup and specialist referral may be warranted to exclude systemic conditions associated with abnormal calcium-phosphate metabolism or hypokalemic metabolic alkalosis syndromes.

“…По данным J. Caminal-Mitjana и соавт. [17], зоны изоаутофлюоресценции в очагах поражения при сопоставлении их с томограммами соответствовали зонам отсутствия кальцинатов. Гипоаутофлюоресценцию наблюдали в местах выпячивания комплекса РПЭ-хориокапилляры, что коррелировало со значительным уменьшением толщины хориокапиллярного комплекса.…”

Diagnostic imaging for sclerochoroidal calcifica-tion

The article presents two clinical cases of sclerochoroidal calcification. This is a rare benign condition that usually does not display itself and is only occasionally diagnosed. It can also be accompanied by systemic disorder of mineral metabolism. The data obtained through medical imaging indicate partial destruction of the choroid at the site of the damage that causes secondary changes in the overlying retina.
