ABSTRACT
Combined hamartoma of retina and retinal pigment epithelium (CHRRPE) has been considered as a congenital benign entity with evidence of choroidal neovascularization membranes (CNVM) being associated with it in literature. This case series gives insight into the pathogenesis and the predisposing factors leading to CNVM formation in peripapillary CHRRPE using swept-source optical coherence tomography. In addition, lack of typical markers of CNVM (subretinal fluid/pigment epithelial detachment) in CHRRPE highlights the utility of optical coherence tomography angiography and the subtle optical coherence tomography findings such as “Bridge Sign” that could be instrumental in early diagnosis of CNVM in CHRRPE.
