[Hamartoma of the pigment epithelium and retina. Apropos of a case].
The retinal pigment epithelium and retinal hamartoma is a rare benign tumor. We describe a case of combined hamartoma of the pigment epithelium and retina in an eight year-old-girl with strabismus and amblyopia. The fluoresceinic angiography and the echography allowed to exclude a malignant tumor of the retina or the choroid. The clinical follow-up confirmed that the lesion was stationary. History, pathogeny, differential diagnostics and treatment are discussed.
