Choroidal ischemia drives macular neovascularization in persistent placoid maculopathy
Purpose: To describe a case of persistent placoid maculopathy (PPM) complicated by macular neovascularization (MNV) that developed in areas of prior choroidal ischemia as illustrated with sequential optical coherence tomography angiography. Observations:

Management of Uveitis-Related Choroidal Neovascularization: From the Pathogenesis to the Therapy
Inflammatory choroidal neovascularization is a severe but uncommon complication of uveitis, more frequent in posterior uveitis such as punctate inner choroidopathy, multifocal choroiditis, serpiginous choroiditis, and Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome.
