Abstract Background:Birdshot chorioretinitis is rather frequent in Caucasians but rare in the Japanese. About 10% of the cases develop choroidal neovascularization in Caucasians, but only one such case has been reported in Japan.

Purpose:To report a case of birdshort chorioretinitis with choroidal neovascularization.

Case:A 54-year-old male was referred to us for blurring in both eyes. He had had cataract surgery and trabeculotomy for both eyes 2 years before. He had received surgery for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment one year before.

Findings and Clinical Course:Corrected visual acuity was 1.0 in right eye and 1.2 in left eye. Both eyes showed disc hyperemia, dilated and tortuous retinal veins, and numerous exudates in the posterior fundus. He was treated by systemic and topical prednisolone. Uveitis recurred in both eyes 10 months later. Both eyes showed multiple retinal exudates in the whole fundus, leading to the diagnosis of birdshot chorioretinitis. The right eye showed choroidal neovascularization 15 months after his initial visit, followed by identical lesion in the left eye 2 months later. Both eyes received vitreous injection of anti-VEGF and sub-Tenon injection of triamcinolone. The fovea in both eyes turned into pigmented scar.

Conclusion:In the present case, chronic uveitis resulted in choroidal neovascularization. Vitreous injection of anti-VEGF and subtenon injection of triamcinolone seemed to be effective but failed to prevent macular scarring and visual failure.
