Sumario:PURPOSE: Presentation of a case report of a unilateral ampiginous choroiditis. METHODS: This is an observational case report. RESULTS: A 70-year-old woman was referred to us with unilateral scattered chorioretinal lesions. The multifocal pattern of the lesions and the angiographic features led to the diagnosis of ampiginous choroiditis. CONCLUSION: Ampiginous choroiditis is a primary inflammatory choriocapillaropathy with characteristics of both acute posterior multifocal placoid pigment epitheliopathy and serpiginous choroiditis.
