Herein we describe the occurrence of an acquired torpedo-like maculopathy in a patient with genetically confirmed BEST1-associated vitelliform macular dystrophy. Multimodal imaging suggests limited exudation from subclinical macular neovascularization as a potential trigger, promoting local fluorophore accumulation and lesion development on a background of chronic retinal pigment epithelium dysfunction.

Abstract
Herein we describe the occurrence of an acquired torpedo-like maculopathy in a patient with genetically confirmed BEST1-associated vitelliform macular dystrophy. Multimodal imaging suggests limited exudation from subclinical macular neovascularization as a potential trigger, promoting local fluorophore accumulation and lesion development on a background of chronic retinal pigment epithelium dysfunction.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
