Objective To observe the findings of indocyanine green angiography(ICGA) and fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) of the patients with multifocal posterior pigment epitheliopathy(MPPE). Methods ICGA and FFA were performed in 6 cases(7 eyes)of MPPE and the findings were analysed and compared between these examinations. Results Five cases(5 eyes)were found to be in the active stage of the disease under FFA,and among them 4 eyes(80%)showed delayed choroidal perfusion at the early stage of ICGA.During the active stage of the disease,ICGA showed leakage relative to FFA leakage,and there were diffuse hyperfluorescence around the points of leakages as well as in the posterior pole of ocular fundus.In convulescence,although FFA revealed no obvious leakage,ICGA still denoted the presence of leakages. Conclusions MPPE was considered to be the more serious type of central serous chorioretinopathy showing the same but more extensive ICGA abnormality. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,2000,16:6-8)
