  • Title: [Considerations on the pathogenesis of acute posterior multifocal placoid pigment epitheliopathy (author's transl)].
    Author: Grüner HJ, Gronemeyer U.
    Journal: Klin Monbl Augenheilkd; 1979 Aug; 175(2):205-10. PubMed ID: 522412.
    Abstract:
    Considerations brought about by one of the authors own cases are presented on the pathogenesis of acute posterior multifocal placoid pigment epitheliopathy. Two theories are hitherto mainly discussed: (1) Primary changes in the pigment epithelium are pathogenetically responsible, (2) primary changes in the choriocapillaris cause secondary changes in the pigment epithelium. The authors, led by their own observations tend to place the disease in the group of primary diseases of the pigment epithelium.
