[Retinal cavernous hemangioma (author's transl)]. 1979

P Turut, and P François

The retinal cavernous hemangioma is a unilateral retinal or prepapillary vascular malformation disposed in clusters, sometimes recovered by a fine glial membrane which can in some cases be complicated by retinal or vitreous hemorrhages. In fundus fluorescein angiography, it is characterized by a delayed and incomplete filling with accumulation inside the angioma in the later phases of the angiogram, but without leakage through its wall. The authors report 7 cases, 5 are pure typical forms and 2 cases present an association of retinal cavernous hemangioma and Leber-Coats angiopathy. These mixed forms set the problems of relationship between these 2 diseases.
