FAST DROP IN VISUAL ACUITY IN A 47 YEARS OLD MALE: SLOW DOWN WITH THE YELLOW!

Stefano Mercuri Daniela Bacherini Gianni Virgili Fabrizio Giansanti

Acute syphilitic posterior placoid chorioretinitis (ASPPC) is a rare disease which may resemble many other retinal diseases.Multimodal imaging is important for diseases characterization, and new techniques may aid us in the understanding of their etiopathogenesis.
Accurate patient’s medical patient history is fundamental to spot the correct diagnosis as soon as possible with the purpose to avoid ocular complications and complications linked to syphilis progression.
