Abstract
Acute multifocal posterior placoid pigment epitheliopathy is a chorioretinal inflammatory disease characterized by whitish lesions with ill-defined margins, deep to the retina and concentrated in the posterior pole. We report the case of a 17-year-old man who presented with the typical findings of bilateral acute multifocal posterior placoid pigment epitheliopathy. He developed secondary central retinal vein occlusion in the right eye. Systemic manifestations and additional investigations resulted in a diagnosis of sarcoidosis.
