Dec 12, 2019 · Focal choroidal excavation (FCE) is an unusual configuration characterized by focal thinning and pitting of the choroid in the absence of staphyloma or scleral ectasia. The etiology and clinical implications of FCE are currently unknown. We report a case of bilateral multiple FCEs in a patient with a long history of paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH).

Aug 31, 2018 · Focal choroidal excavation (FCE) is a recently described entity, seen on optical coherence tomography, and is characterized by one or more areas of focal depressions in the choroid in the absence of posterior staphyloma or scleral ectasia [1, 2].Since its first description in 2006 by Jampol et al. [], the etiopathogenesis of FCE remains unclear.. FCEs are classified into …

Oct 16, 2021 · Focal choroidal excavation (FCE) is characterised by a foveal or parafoveal, focal concavity in the choroid with retina and retinal pigmented epithe-lium (RPE) tracing the deformity.1 With advance-ments in optical coherence tomography (OCT), the entity has become increasingly recognised, with various groups2–6 having attempted to characterise

Significance: Although rarely seen, clinicians should closely monitor patients, especially pregnant patients with focal choroidal excavation (FCE), as it can convert between subtypes and has been linked to pachychoroidal disease and potential for vision loss. Purpose: This study aimed to report a case of the conversion of conforming FCE to nonconforming FCE with spontaneous …

Focal choroidal excavation appears to be a manifestation of pachychoroid spectrum disease associated with choroidal thickening and pachyvessels on structural OCT and choroidal hyperpermeability on indocyanine green angiography. Dilated choroidal vessels, increased choroidal thickness, and choroidal hyperpermeability are demonstrated in a series
