Abstract

To report a case of an unusually large cavernous hemangioma of the optic disk. Case report with funduscopic, fluorescein angiography, and magnetic resonance imaging correlations. A 20-year-old woman with no ocular or systemic history was diagnosed with cavernous hemangioma of the optic disk in a routine eye examination. Fundus examination revealed an extremely large cavernous hemangioma of the optic disk, almost 4.5 disk diameter. Fluorescein angiography showed delayed filling of the lesion with intravascular plasma-erythrocyte separation and no leakage. No systemic involvement was found. This case represents an atypical presentation of cavernous hemangioma of the optic disk, among the largest reported in the literature. After a 5-year follow up period, no change has been documented.
