Efficacy of anti-VEGF in the treatment of choroidal neovascular membrane secondary to pattern dystrophy simulating fundus flavimaculatus

Abstract: Pattern dystrophies are a group of inherited disorders of the retinal pigment epithelium. A 44-year-old female came with loss of vision in her right eye. The fundus of both eyes showed flecks in the posterior pole with a CNVM in the right eye. FFA and SD OCT confirmed the presence of CNVM. The patient underwent treatment with anti-VEGF injection. Post treatment, the vision improved with a reduction in subretinal fluid along with a scarring CNVM. To conclude, we report an extremely rare case of PDSFF associated CNVM and its favourable response to anti-VEGF injection
