Özet
We report a 58-year-old otherwise healthy woman with unilateral endophytic optic disc hemangioma and associated serous retinal detachment and exudation. A standard verteporfin dose was given and a photodynamic treatment (PDT) protocol was followed. A moderate vitreous hemorrhage occurred four days after PDT. The hemangioma regressed markedly 6 weeks after the procedure and serous retinal detachment showed marked resolution.
