چکیده
Multimodal Imaging of... Klin Monatsbl Augenheilkd hamartoma or the splenic hamartoma. The exact incidence of retinal astrocytic hamartoma (RAH) is not well known, but it is estimated at one case per 100000 births per year [1]. The astrocytic hamartoma is a neuroglial tissue and produces astrocytes within the optic nerve [2], and consequently it often appears within papillary region. Congenital hypertrophy of retinal pigment epithelium (CHRPE) is also a developmental anomaly occurring during dif-

Optical coherence tomography and fundus autofluorescence findings in presumed congenital simple retinal pigment epithelium hamartoma
Aim: Presumed congenital simple retinal pigment epithelium hamartoma is a rare benign lesion of the macula that mimics congenital hypertrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and combined hamartoma of the retina and the RPE; newer imaging modalities can help in diagnosis. We report three patients with presumed congenital simple RPE hamartoma, and describe the enhanced-depth imaging optic...
متن کاملMultimodal imaging of combined hamartoma of the retina and retinal pigment epithelium associated with an acquired vitelliform lesion
BACKGROUND We present a case of a combined hamartoma of the retina and retinal pigment epithelium associated with a subfoveal acquired vitelliform lesion induced by vitreomacular traction. The purpose of this report is to present a unifying hypothesis of these concurrent findings, as aided by multimodal imaging. CASE PRESENTATION A 25-year-old white man presented with a 6-month history of a v...

Multifocal and bilateral lesions are likely to be associated with tuberous sclerosis and neurofibromatosis 2 but are ...

Neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF-2) is characterized by multifocal proliferation of neural crest-derived cells. The characteristics finding of NF-2 is bilateral vestibular schwannomas. Combined hamartoma of retina and retinal epithelium (CHRRPE) is another associated finding. A 9 year-old-male child presented with left eye decreased vision for 3 months. Visual acuity was 0.0 and 0.8 LogMAR in the r...
