CHRONIC CENTRAL SEROUS CHORIORETINOPATHY IN THE PEDIATRIC POPULATION: A CASE SERIES.

Abstract

The purpose of this article was to describe 3 cases of chronic central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR) in the pediatric patient population. Retrospective case series. The authors report three pediatric patients with CSCR. All patients initially presented after failed vision screens or during routine office examinations. All patients presented with macula-involving subretinal fluid (SRF) and multimodal imaging features consistent with CSCR. At the last follow-up, one patient had minimal residual SRF, one patient had a small recurrence of SRF, and one patient had persistent SRF. Although CSCR classically occurs in adults, it can be seen in pediatric patients. Given the rarity of this condition in the pediatric population, CSCR may go undetected and underreported, with diagnosis resulting from failed vision screens.
