Objectives: Evaluation of orbital arteries blood flow in acute central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) with color Doppler ultrasonography.

Material and Methods: Between January 2006-February 2007, orbital blood flow of 16 patient with acute CSC were examined by color Doppler ultrasonography and compared with 16 healty controls. Peak systolic rate (PS), end diastolic rate (ED), resistive index (RI), pulsatility index (PI) of all cases was evaluated.

Results: Mean RI and PI values of central retinal artery (CRA) of the patient group were 0.57±0.02 and 1.04±0.05, of the control group were 0.67±0.03 and 1.33±0.08 (p<0.05). Mean PI of ophthalmic artery (OA) of the patient group was 1.31±0.07 and of the control group was 1.57±0.05 (p<0.05). There was no significant difference in other parameters (CRA-PS, CRA-ED, ophthalmic artery (OA)-PS, OA-ED, OA-RI and posterior cilier artery (PCA)-PS, ED, PI, RI between CSC patients and control group (p>0.05).

Conclusion: Etiopathogenesis of CSC is still discussed. The significant differences can occur in ocular blood flow parameters of CSC with color Doppler ultrasonography. ©2008, Firat University, Medical Faculty.
