Congenital simple hamartomas of the RPE are benign, solitary, stationary, well-demarcated lesions seen in the retina. They are usually characterized by their pigmentation, superficial or deep involvement of the retinal layers and abrupt margins, and convex tenting of the surface. They have been recently studied extensively using SD-OCT and OCT-angiography. We have described a case of bilateral multiple congenital simple hamartomas of the RPE and their imaging characteristics.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
