Optical Coherence Tomography-Angiography of a large retinal microaneurysm
A 63-year-old healthy woman was referred for a retinal examination. Dilated fundus examination of the left eye revealed small retinal hemorrhage with surrounding exudation, most consistent with a large retinal microaneurysm, which was confirmed by fluorescein angiography and optical coherence tomogr...

Summary: | A 63-year-old healthy woman was referred for a retinal examination. Dilated fundus examination of the left eye revealed small retinal hemorrhage with surrounding exudation, most consistent with a large retinal microaneurysm, which was confirmed by fluorescein angiography and optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A). OCT-A has the potential to clearly delineate the anatomy of retinal aneurysms and could be used for diagnosis and surveillance, possibly replacing the current gold-standard fluorescein angiography. |
