Oral propranolol for exudative retinal detachment in diffuse choroidal hemangioma.
T he main abnormality of the uveal tract in patients with Sturge-Weber syndrome is diffuse choroidal hemangioma (DCH). Diffuse choroidal hemangioma can lead to a total retinal detachment and secondary neovascular glaucoma. Radiotherapy and photodynamic therapy are currently the preferred methods of treatment. Low-dose lens-sparing radiotherapy or proton beam irradiation can induce tumor regress...
متن کاملCLINICAL SCIENCES Palladium 103 (Pd) Plaque Radiation Therapy for Circumscribed Choroidal Hemangioma With Retinal Detachment

Serous retinal detachment accounts for decreased vision in most patients. Diagnosis of this tumor is challenging with many patients initially misdiagnosed with choroidal melanoma or metastasis. Several ancillary tests such as ultrasonography, fluorescein a...
