PURPOSE: To assess the efficacy of treatment on acute posterior multifocal placoid pigment epitheliopathy (APMPPE) and relentless placoid chorioretinopathy (RPC). METHODS: Cases were identified from three UK uveitis centers. Retrospective analysis of visual acuity recovery; OCT structural outcomes; and retinal lesion quantification in observed and treated cases of APMPPE/RPC. RESULTS: There were nine APMPPE and three RPC cases. Out of 12 patients, six were female. Median age: 26.5 years (range, 20-57 years). Four cases (six eyes) were observed, and eight cases (15 eyes) received corticosteroids ± immunosuppression. 4/4 observed and 6/10 treated foveal involving eyes regained 0.00 LogMAR vision. Observed lesions achieved more favorable anatomical outcomes. New lesions post-presentation developed in 1/6 (16%) observed eye versus 10/15 (66%) treated eyes. In three cases, a delayed, rebound lesion occurrence was observed post-high-dose corticosteroids. CONCLUSIONS: While subject to potential treatment bias, in this small case series, natural history alone appears non-inferior to corticosteroid treatment.
