HAMARTOMA COMBINADO DE RETINA Y EPITELIO PIGMENTARIO RETINIANO. DIAGNÓSTICO MEDIANTE TOMOGRAFÍA DE COHERENCIA ÓPTICA Y ANGIOFLUORESCEINGRAFÍA COMBINED HAMARTOMA OF THE RETINA AND RETINAL PIGMENT EPITHELIUM DIAGNOSED BY RETINAL ANGIOGRAPHY AND OPTICAL COHERENCE TOMOGRAPHY

2008 
Clinical case: This report is based on the case of a 35-year-old woman who developed a combined hamartoma of the retina and retinal pigment epithelium in her right eye. The diagnosis was determined based on the fundus examination: hyperplasia of the retinal pigment epithelium cells, tortuosity of the vessels and epiretinal membrane. Discussion: Optical coherence tomography and retinal angiography are important to rule out malignant melanoma of the choroid and retinoblastoma. Regular follow-up is essential because reduction in visual acuity can be related to an epiretinal membrane, neovascular membrane or vitreous hemorrhage (Arch Soc Esp Oftalmol 2008; 83: 193-196).
