Abstract. Purpose:To report a case of acute posterior multifocal placoid pigment epitheliopathy(APMPPE)with choroidal folds. Case:A 64-year-old male presented with impaired vision in his right eye since 3 weeks before. Best corrected visual acuity was 0.7 right and 0.6 left. His right eye showed yellowish-white patches in the posterior fundus. Optical coherence tomography(OCT)showed serous retinal detachment with choroidal folds. Fluorescein angiography showed inverted phenomenon, leading to the diagnosis of APMPPE. Peroral prednisolone at the initial dosis of 30 mg with tapering was followed by improved visual acuity to 1.0 3 weeks later and normalized OCT findings. Conclusion:This case illustrates that choroidal folds may be present in APMPPE suggesting involvement of the choroid by inflammatory process.
