Purpose: To report a case of retinal angiomatous proliferation (RAP) treated by ablation of the feeding and draining vessels that recurred by 6 months postoperatively.
Design: Interventional case report.
Methods: Images from fluorescein angiography, indocyanine green (ICG) angiography, and optical coherence tomography (OCT) were examined before and after ablation.
Results: The hot spot on late-phase ICG, the leakage on fluorescein angiography, the pigment epithelial detachment, and macular edema on OCT decreased postoperatively. However, a large hyperfluorescent lesion was detected on ICG 6 months postoperatively with recurrent cystoid macular edema.
Conclusions: A new RAP lesion can develop even after the original lesion seemed to resolve after ablation.
