Activity Outline
Central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR) is an idiopathic
retinal disease in which fluid accumulates below the neurosensory retina,
causing a serous detachment. CSCR has been typically viewed to be benign due to
its self-limiting nature. However, as some cases can be chronic, management can
be challenging.
Over recent years there have been major evolutions in how we view and manage this classic disease, through deeper pathophysiological understandings and the availability of new treatment options and imaging tools.
Learning Objectives
- Understand the typical signs and symptoms of central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR)
- Know the current pathophysiological mechanisms believed to underlie CSCR and the pachychoroid disease spectrum
- Be aware of management options, investigational techniques, and treatment indicators for patients presenting with CSCR
- Be aware of masquerade presentations and differential diagnoses associated with CSCR
