Abstract

We present a rare case of retinal racemose angioma complicated with fleeting macroaneurysm (MA). A 50-year-old female presented with diminution of vision in her right eye for 6 years. Fundus examination showed a racemose angioma with hemorrhagic MA temporal to the fovea in the right eye. On subsequent follow-ups, spontaneous thrombosis of MA was noted with the development of new MA inferior to the fovea, with intraretinal hemorrhage extending into the fovea. Focal laser to MA resulted in resolution of MA with improvement in vision. We report optical coherence tomography angiographic features of the fleeting MA in a case of racemose angioma.<br />Competing Interests: There are no conflicts of interest
