Özet

Purpose: To present the multimodal imaging characteristics including optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) as well as indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) of quiescent type 1 neovascularization (NV) in an asymptomatic eye with angioid streaks (AS). Observations: A 67-year-old male patient was admitted to our clinic for routine eye examination. The presence of a quiescent type 1 NV was detected on both ICGA and OCTA in juxtafoveal localization under the retinal pigment epitheliumin the right eye. At the end of the one year of follow-up, the patient was asymptomatic and the type 1 NV was still quiescent. Conclusions and Importance: In comparison to ICGA, OCTA seems to be an easily repeatable non-invasive imaging tool which enables us early detection and monitoring of type 1 NV lesions even in asymptomatic patients with AS. © 2018 The Authors
