title: Case report: associated retinal neovascularization and choroidal hemangioma.
abstract: Choroidal hemangiomas are vascular hamartomas that may be associated with secondary changes. Although subretinal fluid and associated neurosensory retina and retinal pigment epithelial changes are well documented, two cases in which retinal neovascularization was felt to be secondary to choroidal hemangiomas are presented. Long term follow-up reveals mild changes of the retinal neovascularization in both cases. The neovascularization did not affect the visual prognosis of the involved eyes.
