A 27-year-old woman with mild myopia presented with blurred vision and photopsia of the right eye for 2 weeks. She had no particular medical or ocular histories.\nThe patient’s best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 1.0 OD (oculus dexter) and 1.5 OS (oculus sinister). Relative afferent pupillary defect was negative. There were no abnormal ocular findings OS. Slit-lamp examination revealed no inflammation in the anterior chamber or vitreous. Funduscopic examination showed multiple, faint, subretinal white dots at the posterior pole to the equator and macular granular change (, arrowheads). In addition, retinal vascular sheathing was observed at the midperiphery (, arrows). Fluorescein angiography (FA) showed hyperfluorescence continuing from the initial phase corresponding to the white dots (, arrowheads) and the staining of the optic disk. The retinal sheathing sites showed vascular staining with leakages in the late-phase OD (, arrows). Indocyanine green angiography showed no abnormal appearance in the initial phase and multiple hypofluorescence at the wider area than the white dots (, arrowheads). Enhanced depth imaging optical coherence tomography (EDI-OCT) revealed the discontinuity of the ellipsoid zone at macular area OD (, arrows) and that the subfoveal choroidal thickness (SCT) was 295 µm. Humphrey perimetry (30-2 Swedish threshold interactive algorithm standard test) showed a mild blind spot enlargement OU (oculus uterque) (mean deviation [MD] value: −1.83 dB OD and −1.08 dB OS). Multifocal electroretinography (mfERG) showed entirely decreased amplitude, except normal central amplitude OD, and mildly decreased amplitude at the retinal site that corresponded to the peripapillary area OS. Infection screening, including tuberculosis, syphilis, human T-cell leukemia virus type 1, and toxoplasmosis, showed negative results on QuantiFERON and serological testing or with antibodies for these agents. The chest X-ray was normal and serum angiotensin-converting enzyme was within normal limit. The patient received a diagnosis of MEWDS OD and was followed up with no treatment. One month after the first visit, the white dots and retinal vascular sheathing spontaneously resolved. After 3 months, the ellipsoid zone at the macula restored and the SCT decreased to 237 µm, together with increased BCVA of 1.5 OD (). On Humphrey perimetry, the MD value improved to −0.28 dB OD and −0.69 dB OS.
A 32-year-old female presented with decreased central vision in the right eye to our tertiary eye center (Khatam Eye Hospital) affiliated to Mashhad University of Medical Sciences. Institutional review board approval was obtained for this case report. Complete ophthalmic examination was done. BCVA was 20/100 on the right and 20/20 on the left one. Ophthalmoscopy revealed bilateral multifocal yellow-orange elevated choroidal masses with distinct borders at the posterior pole. The left eye was conspicuous in its macular tumor as well as juxtapapillary foci, indicative of multifocal nature of the lesion ().\nFundus autofluorescence (FAF) images revealed the calcified parts of the tumor to be isoautofluorescent (AF) or mild hyper-AF on the left, whereas the lesion was variable (hypo-hyper AF) on the right side, possibly due to RPE changes, which in turn stemmed from decalcification, CNV, and subretinal fluid (SRF) (). Fluorescein angiography (FAG) demonstrated variable hyperfluorescence of the tumor on both sides as well as CNV in the right eye (). Indocyanine green angiography (ICG), in early to mid-phase, showed the well-defined tumor to be hypofluorescent with CNV on the right side ().\nB-scan ultrasonography (NIDEK Echo scan US-4000, Gamagori, Japan) indicated hyperechogenicity of the tumor on both sides. Enhanced depth imaging optical coherence tomography (EDI-OCT) (Spectralis HRA + OCT, Heidelberg Engineering, Heidelberg, Germany) disclosed the thinning of choriocapillaries as well as large choroidal vessels, which were invisible in the calcified parts. Outer retinal abnormalities were attributed to CNV in the right eye. These regions also showed the disturbance of the outer retinal layers whereas the inner retina turned out to be entirely intact. The tumor displayed smooth undulating surface with horizontal layered hyperreflective lines in the tumor (). Orbital computerized tomography (CT) scan showed hyperdense plaques, with bone like homogeneity in the posterior pole. Two plaques were seen in the left eye ().\nThe final diagnosis of bilateral multifocal choroidal osteoma in association with CNV in the right eye was made based on multimodal imaging findings. The decalcified portion of tumor on the right was yellowish-white in color.\nThe safe conclusion pertaining to the above details was suggestive of the trend whereby tumor calcification and CNV had led to visual loss on the right eye. Thus, the patient received injections of intravitreal bevacizumab (Avastin, Genentech Inc., San Francisco, CA) in the right eye, which subsequently improved the BCVA to 20/40. This BCVA sustained during nine months of follow-up.
