[Clinico-angiographic indications for surgical intersection of the superficial temporal artery in patients with central chorioretinal dystrophy].

Clinical and angiographic assessment of the status of 28 patients with sclerotic central chorioretinal dystrophy, carried out before and after surgery, has revealed a discrepancy between the improved hemodynamics in the orbital artery and vascular coating and the clinical results of the operation. Analysis of the fluorescent angiograms of the fundus oculi has helped detect the patients with the 'dry' and pseudotumorous forms of the disease, for whom crossing the superficial temporal artery is indicated.
