Autoantibodies Against Bestrophin in Non-Paraneoplastic Acute Exudative Polymorphous Vitelliform Maculopathy.

ABSTRACT

Acute exudative polymorphous vitelliform maculopathy (AEPVM) has recently been identified as a paraneoplastic manifestation of various cancers. Yet, the first reported cases of AEPVM in the literature were reported in seemingly healthy individuals. It is not clear whether those individuals harbored unidentified mutations or occult cancers, or truly represented a separate subset of AEPVM. Here, we report two cases of mutation-negative, autoantibody-positive non-paraneoplastic AEPVM. We present multimodal ocular imaging to demonstrate the presentation of this subset of AEPVM.
