Ophthalmoscopic examination, optical coherence tomography, and autofluorescence show the cystoid macular edema, but fluorescein angiography is normal, without leakage of dye in the late times. The patient responds well 8 weeks after stopping antineoplastic. Paclitaxel can cause cystoid macular edema and lifting a recovery both anatomical and functional of the macula. }, volume = 2, pages = {1}, journal = {Latin American Journal of Ophthalmology}, issn = {2637-6229}, issn = {2637-6237}, url = {https://doi.org/10.25259/LAJO-2-2018}, doi = {10.25259/LAJO-2-2018} }
