2023, Progress in Retinal and Eye ResearchCitation Excerpt :Acute posterior multifocal placoid pigment epitheliopathy (APMPPE), first described by Gass in 1968, is a rare, idiopathic, self-limited, inflammatory condition typically affecting healthy adults who present with transient acute central or paracentral vision loss related to multiple creamy white or yellow placoid outer retinal and RPE lesions (Gass, 1968). One third of the patients report a preceding viral or flu-like illness prior to symptom onset (Gass, 1968; Holt et al., 1976). With more advanced retinal imaging, including ICGA and more recently OCT and OCTA, it is clear that this disease is primarily the result of inner choroidal or choriocapillaris ischemia likely originating from an inflammatory etiology (Burke et al., 2017; Dhaliwal et al., 1993; Dolz-Marco et al., 2017; Howe et al., 1995; Klufas et al., 2017; Mrejen et al., 2016; Yuzawa et al., 1994).
