Multimodal imaging including optical coherence tomography angiography of benign familial fleck retina

Abstract

A 44-year-old woman presented with complaints of pain in the right eye (RE). Fundus examination revealed disc edema in the RE along with retinal flecks sparing the macula in both eyes (BE). Fundus autofluorescence demonstrated a symmetrical pattern of white flecks in BE. Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) revealed the lesions at the level of retinal pigment epithelium with impingement onto the outer retina. SD-OCT angiography through the flecks revealed hyperreflective lesions at the level of avascular retina. RE B-scan revealed a T-sign. Based on these findings, she was diagnosed with BE benign familial fleck retina (BFFR) with RE posterior scleritis. We describe the multimodal imaging features in a middle-aged patient with BFFR and provide an insight into the probable pathogenesis.
