ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To report the clinical features and management of circumscribed choroidal hemangioma.METHODS:
Seven patients with circumscribed choroidal hemangioma were reviewed retrospectively. One eye having a small tumor without subretinal fluid was observed. Four eyes with large tumors around the posterior pole were treated with laser photocoagulation or/and transpupillary thermotherapy. Stereotactic radiosurgery with a gamma knife was applied in 2 eyes with large tumors on the peripheral retina.RESULTS:
In all cases, the retinal detachment showed complete resolution. Tumor thickness was decreased in 2 cases treated with stereotactic radiosurgery. Visual acuity was either improved or unchanged in 6 eyes and decreased in one eye after treatment.CONCLUSIONS:
Circumscribed choroidal hemangioma is a rare intraocular tumor. These tumors can be treated with variable modalities based on their size, location, and subretinal fluid. They have a favorable prognosis. Stereotactic radiotherapy is a reasonable treatment alternative for large symptomatic choroidal hemangiomas.
