Résumé
BACKGROUND: Sclerochoroidal calcifications are rare and benign lesions. The diagnosis is made upon their fundoscopic and echographic appearance. Because of their possible association with diseases involving disturbances of calcium and phosphate metabolism, these parameters should be investigated as well. CASE REPORT: We present a patient with the classical features of sclerochoroidal calcifications. In fluorescein and indocyanine-green angiographies a presumed subretinal neovascular membrane was observed. CONCLUSION: The diagnosis of sclerochoroidal calcifications should be complemented with angiographic investigations because of a possible association with a subretinal neovascular membrane. In two such cases reported previously in the literature, the neovascular membrane was treated by laser coagulation. In one case, as in ours, no treatment was undertaken. The good prognosis of sclerochoroidal calcifications remained unaltered in all cases.
