A Bullous Variant of Central Serous Chorioretinopathy Treated With Sclerotomy

Bullous serous central chorioretinopathy (bCSCR) is an atypical form of CSCR characterized by large serous detachment. This variant presents significant diagnostic challenges, and optimal treatment strategies are not well defined. This report presents a case of a 31-year-old man with bCSRC treated with scleral thinning surgery in four quadrants with scleral windows created in the two inferior quadrants. The etiology, pathogenesis, and optimal treatment of bCSCR are not fully understood. Various therapeutic options, including photocoagulation and photodynamic therapy, have been employed with varying degrees of success. We describe a case of scleral thinning (sclerectomy) with two inferior sclerotomies without subretinal drainage, which resulted in a positive outcome. <b>[<i>Ophthalmic Surg Lasers Imaging Retina</i> 2025;56:116-119.]</b>.

Abstract

Bullous serous central chorioretinopathy (bCSCR) is an atypical form of CSCR characterized by large serous detachment. This variant presents significant diagnostic challenges, and optimal treatment strategies are not well defined. This report presents a case of a 31-year-old man with bCSRC treated with scleral thinning surgery in four quadrants with scleral windows created in the two inferior quadrants. The etiology, pathogenesis, and optimal treatment of bCSCR are not fully understood. Various therapeutic options, including photocoagulation and photodynamic therapy, have been employed with varying degrees of success. We describe a case of scleral thinning (sclerectomy) with two inferior sclerotomies without subretinal drainage, which resulted in a positive outcome. <b>[<i>Ophthalmic Surg Lasers Imaging Retina</i> 2025;56:116-119.]</b>.
