  • Title: Retinochoroidal coloboma: varieties of clinical presentations.
    Author: Steahly LP.
    Journal: Ann Ophthalmol; 1990 Jan; 22(1):9-14. PubMed ID: 2310120.
    Abstract:
    Several presentation and associated clinical problems can be seen with retinochoroidal colobomas. We review five cases of retinochoroidal coloboma with no specific clinical problems and present five cases with clinical visual impairment. The five symptomatic cases include: one with extensive bilateral involvement; one with associated rhegmatogenous detachment and peripheral tears; one with retinal detachment and apparent holes in the intercalary membrane; one with subretinal neovascularization; and a case with diabetic retinopathy, optic nerve coloboma, and peripheral retinochoroidal coloboma in one eye and a total coloboma in the other eye.
