Differential diagnoses to be considered include: retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) hypertrophy, choroidal nevus, choroidal melanoma, melanocytoma, true hyperplasia of RPE, inflammatory pigmented fundus lesions, and pigmented colobomas. Table 1 summarizes methods for deciding on the possible cause for the pigmented area and its possible course.
