PURPOSE: To report the result of photodynamic therapy with Visudyne (PDT) on a child with choroidal neovascular membrane (CNV) secondary to toxoplasmic retinochoroiditis.
METHODS: An 11-year-old child with a unilateral lowering of visual acuity secondary to an extrafoveal choroidal neovascular membrane was submitted to PDT.
RESULTS: One week after PDT, the patient's vision had improved from 10/160 to 20/70, with marked improvement in the angiographic findings. The CNV evolved with decreasing of leakage until 45 days after operation, when it regressed to a chorioretinal scar formation, with final vision of 20/25.
CONCLUSION: PDT promoted an early recovery of visual acuity in an eye with choroidal neovascularization secondary to toxoplasmic retinochoroiditis.
