Traumatic Choroidal Rupture With Late Serous Detachment of Macula

Indirect choroidal tears at the posterior pole: a fluorescein angiographic and perimetric study.

“…Delayed breakdown of the choroidoretinal barrier associated with new vessels invading the retina through a choroidal rupture adjacent to the macula was initially reported by Gass (1970). Such disturbances may cause permanent macular changes with severe visual loss, though laser therapy has proved beneficial in some individuals (Fuller and Gitter,' 1973 nation of our case records of patients with choroidal tears shows that less than 10% developed this complication. Late leakage of fluorescein dye into the retina following choroidal neovascularisation in a tear adjacent to the macula, which later subsided spontaneously, was described by Smith et al (1974).…”

Intravitreal anti-VEGF treatment for choroidal neovascularization secondary to traumatic choroidal rupture

“…However, in cases of symptomatic CNV development and activity of the lesion verified by FFA imaging prompt treatment is indicated. Before the anti-VEGF aera secondary CNV membranes were treated with laser photocoagulation [6], photodynamic therapy [4, 5] or vitreoretinal surgery [7]. There is nowadays consensus that secondary CNV membranes should receive intravitreal anti-VEGF treatment as first-line-therapy [17].…”
