RESUMO
PURPOSE: To describe a case of presumed combined hamartoma of the retina and retinal pigment epithelium associated with preretinal neovascularization. DESIGN: Observational case report. METHODS: We report clinical and angiographic findings of a 26-year-old woman. RESULTS: The patient presented with mild vitreous hemorrhage and slowly decreasing vision in the right eye. A combined hamartoma of the midperipheral retina and retinal pigment epithelium with an epiretinal membrane causing traction to the macula was found. Fluorescein angiography showed areas of capillary nonperfusion and a large preretinal neovascularization peripheral to the hamartoma. CONCLUSIONS: A combined hamartoma may be associated with retinal capillary nonperfusion and preretinal neovascularization, suggesting that significant retinal ischemia can occur with a combined hamartoma.
