Congratulations to the winner of our March quiz, Christina Canakis, MD, Vitreoretinal Fellow at the Department of Ophthalmology, Tulane University Medical Center, New Orleans, La. The correct answer to our March challenge was idiopathic polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy. For a complete discussion of this case, see the Clinicopathologic Reports, Case Reports, and Small Case Series section in the April ARCHIVES (Rosa RH, Davis JL, Eifrig CWG. Clinicopathologic correlation of idiopathic polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy. Arch Ophthalmol. 2002;120:502-508).

Montage fundus photograph of left eye (October 11, 1995) reveals peripapillary red-orange nodular lesions contiguous with elevated, sinuous, tubular lesions extending through the macular region. Note subretinal pigment epithelial hemorrhage superotemporal to the optic disc and the red-orange nodular or polypoidal lesions just posterior to the hemorrhage (arrow). Also note the serosanguineous retinal detachment and few hard exudates inferotemporally.
