Atypical associations of retinitis pigmentosa: A case series
Abstract
Central visual acuity in retinitis pigmentosa (RP) can be compromised by posterior subcapsular cataract, cystoid macular edema, epiretinal membrane, and macular hole formation. However, features like posterior pole neovascularization, central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR), and proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) are rare in RP. We report three such cases of atypical associations of common retinal diseases in RP that were detected on multimodal imaging.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a case series, done in people. Its evidence level is 5 of 5 (Very low · case / narrative / animal / in vitro / in silico). Case reports, narrative reviews, and animal, cell or computer-model studies give the weakest evidence for human health.
