Subretinal Hemorrhage From Retinal Arterial Macroaneurysm Simulating Malignancy

Retinal Vascular Diseases Hypertensive Retinopathy and Macroaneurysm

“…Edema of the macular and optic disc caused by malignant hypertension may impair vision. Exudative macroaneurysms have a worse prognosis than hemorrhagic macroaneurysms [18], some cases of macroaneurysm may complicate into a macular hole which holds a bad prognosis as well [19].…”

Case Report of a Retinal Arterial Macroaneurysm Using Diagnostic Optical Coherence Tomography and Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography

“…In contrast to fluorescein angiography, OCT angiography is unable to depict abnormalities in vascular permeability and therefore does not display pooling, staining or leakage 18,19 . However, OCTA images are not concealed by hyper- arterial macroaneurysm hemorrhage in the space beneath the retinal pigment epithelium may produce a dark lesion simulating an ocular tumor such as malignant melanoma 24 . The case history and the dilated fundus examination of the fellow eye are of value when confirming the RAM diagnosis.…”

Retinale arterielle Makroaneurysmen (RAM) – Pathologie, Differenzialdiagnose und Therapie

“…Die FAG erlaubt in diesen Fällen eine einfache Abgrenzung. Aus-geprägte, vor allem entfärbte Blutkoagel sind nicht selten für maligne Melanome gehalten worden [16,17] [18,19]. Dieses Ziel kann mit einer Laserkoagulation des RAM erreicht werden.…”
