title: [Bone choristoma of the bilateral choroid and asymmetric microphthalmia].
abstract: The authors report a case of associated bilateral asymmetrical microphthalmia and osseous choristoma of the choroid in a seventeen year old young woman. This association, to the author's knowledge, has not been previously reported in the literature. The bone choristoma was present in the eye's posterior poles and the clinical features were studied by electroretinography, fluorescein angiography, A-B scan ultrasonography, computerized axial tomography and nuclear magnetic resonance. The authors hypothesize that a choroid developmental tumor was produced by exposure to the rubella virus during embryonic life.
