We congratulate the authors for a well‐written and informative paper on the clinical and imaging aspects of macular serpiginous choroiditis (MSC).[1] Classically, serpiginous choroiditis (SC) is described as a white‐dot syndrome of unknown etiology affecting the choriocapillaris and overlying retinal pigment epithelium.[2,3] It is a rare, usually bilateral, and chronically recurring inflammatory disease beginning in the peripapillary area and spreading centrifugally to involve macula in a snake‐like manner over months or years.[4] However, in a few patients, the lesion arises at the macula. This finding is described as MSC.[5]
