Bilateral peripapillary exophytic retinal hemangioblastomas.
A 14-year-old Iranian girl was referred for evaluation of bilateral elevation of the peripapillary retina. Fluorescein angiography was consistent with bilateral peripapillary exophytic retinal hemangioblastomas as seen in angiomatosis retinae (von Hippel's disease). Argon laser photocoagulation of the more severely affected left eye was performed with minimal effect upon the tumor.
