Optical Coherence Tomographic Findings in a Patient with Choroidal Osteoma
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Medical Case Reports - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
Abstract: We present a case of choroidal osteoma in a 63-year-old man. Fundus examination revealed a yellowish-brown lesion in the posterior pole. Ultrasonic B-scan echography showed a highly reflective lesion. Optical coherence tomography image of this lesion revealed hyporeflective with intrinsic hyperreflective dots. OCT is a useful noninvasive diagnostic examination to identify the intrinsic structure in patients with choroidal osteoma. Keywords: choroidal osteoma, optical coherence tomography
