{Abstract}: The aim of this study was to investigate the multimodality imaging features of retinal cavernous hemangiomas (RCHs).
The clinical data of three patients with RCH were reviewed and the imaging findings were analyzed.
The color photographs of the fundus showed bead-like vesicles in the retina. Some vesicles showed plasma erythrocyte separation - with plasma on the top and erythrocytes at the bottom - which was consistently detected as high spontaneous fluorescence on fundus fluorescence angiography. Other vesicles were surrounded by thick walls and fibrous tissue, showing high spontaneous fluorescence, although they did not show any changes on fluorescence angiography. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) could not discriminate the different characteristics of the vesicles, but could clearly discriminate the appearance of the vesicles and their location on the retina, as well as other structural features.
Fundus color photography, fundus fluorescein angiography, and OCT can aid in acquiring a better understanding of the structural features of cavernous hemangioma and its relationship with retinal vessels.
