Eleven patients, 40 to 71 years old, had a choroidal vasculopathy that led to hemorrhagic and exudative macular degeneration. The patients had peculiar polypoidal, subretinal, vascular lesions associated with serous and hemorrhagic detachments of the retinal pigment epithelium. This macular disorder, which we have named idiopathic polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (IPCV), appears to represent a distinct entity that differs clinically and demograph-ically from age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and other macular diseases associated with subretinal neovascularization. Recognition of this condition is important because it may have specific risk factors, natural course, and management considerations that differ from those of age-related macular degeneration
11 名 40 至 71 岁的患者患有脉络膜血管病变，导致出血性和渗出性黄斑变性。这些患者具有独特的息肉样、视网膜下、血管病变，伴有视网膜色素上皮的浆液性和出血性脱离。我们将这种黄斑疾病命名为特发性息肉样脉络膜血管病变（IPCV），它似乎代表一种与年龄相关性黄斑变性（AMD）和其他与视网膜下新生血管有关的黄斑疾病在临床上和人口统计学上不同的独特实体。认识到这种情况很重要，因为它可能具有与年龄相关性黄斑变性不同的特定风险因素、自然病程和管理注意事项。
