초록
저자들은 고도근시에 의한 망막하 신생혈관의 형성으로 심한 시력장애가 있었던 2명의 환자에서 특별한 치료없이 자연경과 관찰중 망막하 신생혈관의 자연 퇴축으로 인하여 많은 시력의 회복이 있었던 경우를 경험하였기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.
Majority of the eyes with subfoveal neovascular membrane lose the central vision. We observed two patients who regained significant central vision as the result of the involution of subfoveal neovascularization. On follow-up fundus examination, the subretinal lesions revealed grayish neovascular membranes stained with fluorescein, but did not show the fluid leakage. And subretinal hemorrhage and subretinal fluid were gradually resolved. We assumed that functioning retinal pigment epithelium within the macula and young age were the important factors of the spontaneous improvement of visual outcome.
