To present a pediatric case of acute retinal pigment epitheliitis (ARPE) and propose a classification based on imaging findings and prognosis.
A case report with literature review.
The case demonstrated hallmark ARPE features alongside an atypical disease course, indicating a broader clinical spectrum. Multimodal imaging plays a crucial role in differentiating ARPE from mimicking retinal disorders.
ARPE may represent a spectrum of subtypes with varying prognostic implications. A classification based on age, laterality and imaging biomarkers could improve diagnostic accuracy and patient management.
介绍一例小儿急性视网膜色素上皮炎（ARPE）病例，并根据影像学表现和预后提出一种分类方法。
病例报告并进行文献综述。
该病例显示出典型的ARPE特征以及非典型的病程，提示其临床谱更广泛。多模态成像在鉴别ARPE与类似视网膜疾病方面起着关键作用。
ARPE可能代表一系列具有不同预后意义的亚型。基于年龄、病变侧别和影像学生物标志物的分类方法可提高诊断准确性和患者管理水平。
