Title: [Hemangioma racemosum of retina: a case report]. Author: Malukiewicz-Wiśniewska G, Tsanakas M. Journal: Klin Oczna; 1999; 101(4):301-3. PubMed ID: 10581900. Abstract: PURPOSE: To report a case of haemangioma racemosum, a rare congenital disease. PATIENT: Female patient, aged 17, with unilateral decrease of visual acuity. Examination showed retinal arteriovenous malformations. Fluorescein angiography demonstrated variably sized arteriovenous communications, tortuosity and dilatation of the malformed vessels as well as normal vessels. CONCLUSION: The reported case shows the difficulties that may be encountered in differentiating haemangioma racemosum from hemangiomas associated with other disorders. A complete physical examination and angiography are essential in distinguishing difficult cases.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
