Abstract
entral serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR) is an idiopathic disorder characterized by serous detachment of the macula and retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) detachment. Its etiology and pathophysiology are still unknown. However, CSCR can arise secondary to chronic treatment with steroids. We present two cases in which CSCR developed in patients on oral steroid therapy and resolved after treatment was stopped. We also offer a review of the literature. (Korean J Med 75:221-224, 2008) Key Words: Corticosteroid; Glomerulonephritis; Central serous chorioretinopathy
