Abstract

To report a case of circumscribed choroidal hemangioma complicated by retinal detachment and regressed spontaneously after childbirth.Clinical examination, fundus photography, spectral domain optical coherence tomography with enhanced depth imaging, fundus autofluorescence, fluorescein angiography, indocyanine green angiography, and microperimetry.A 41-year-old woman was referred with a 2-week history of decreased vision and scotoma in the left eye. She was in her sixth month of pregnancy. Fundus examination revealed a circumscribed choroidal hemangioma appearing as a solitary orange-red mass in the upper peripapillary area and neurosensory retinal detachment of the macula. After the birth, spontaneous regression of the retinal detachment was observed.Pregnancy may cause exacerbation of choroidal hemangioma, and regression of the exudation may occur spontaneously after delivery. Treatment is not indicated when symptoms or signs of exudation disappear.
