Objective To investigate the features of ocular fundus of retinal pigment epithelial detachment (PED) in Chinese patients more than 50. Methods The clinical data of 31 continuous patients (34 eyes) with PED diagnosed by ocular fundus photochromy, fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) and indocyanine green angiography ( ICGA ) from Oct, 2001 to Aug, 2004 were analyzed retrospectively. Results In 34 eyes with PED, the results of FFA showed serous PED in 18 (52.9%), hemorrhagic PED in 8 (23.5%), and serosanguineous PED in 8 (23.5%); the results of ICGA revealed PED associated with choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in 12 (35.3%), PED associated with ploypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV) in 17 (50.0%), PED associated with both CNV and PCV in 1 (2.9%), and avascular PED in 4 (11.8%). Conclusions PED in Chinese patients more than 50 can be associated with CNV, PCV or other avascular diseases, and PCV is the most common intercurrent choroidal vascular disease. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis, 2006, 22: 224-227)
