Optical coherence tomography visualization of posterior vitreous membrane adhesion in uncomplicated solitary retinal astrocytic hamartoma

Introduction Retinal astrocytic hamartomas are benign tumors of the retinal nerve fiber layer with a characteristic appearance on ophthalmoscopic examination. Although these lesions may be found in isolation without systemic involvement, they usually occur in association with tuberous sclerosis. To our knowledge, there are few reports presenting optical coherence tomography(OCT)findings of vitreoretinalinterface changes associated with this tumor 4, 6. Herein, we describe a case of uncomplicated solitary retinal astrocytic hamartoma and OCT examination findings.
