Ampiginous variants (“relentless placoid chorioretinitis”) [19] have been described as a form of APMPPE that resembles serpiginous choroiditis with a prolonged course and widespread distribution of lesions [20]. Figure 6.4 demonstrates the clinical course of this entity. Fundus exam showed multiple yellow, gray, and white placoid lesions in the posterior pole (Fig. 6.4a) with corresponding scotomata in the 10-2 MP-1 microperimetry (mean sensitivity = 13 dB) (Fig. 6.4b, c). Despite immunosuppression, placoid lesions in ampiginous choroiditis often progress (Fig. 6.4d). In this example, 10-2 MP-1 demonstrates near-complete loss of central sensitivity (mean sensitivity 1 dB) (Fig. 6.4e, f).
