Aneurysmal neovascularization type 1

Description

Aneurysmal neovascularization type 1, also known as polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV), is a condition characterized by the presence of sub-pigmented epithelial neovessels with aneurysmal or polypoidal dilatations. This entity is within the spectrum of pachychoroidal diseases.

Comments

After studying the patient with AVI, we observed the presence of a cluster of VCP in the nasal margin of the pigmented epithelial detachment (PED).

Indication

We present a 74-year-old male referred for indocyanine green angiography (IGA) to rule out CPV.
