Choroidal osteoma in an infant.
OBJECTIVE
To report an 8-month-old infant with choroidal osteoma.


METHODS
Case report.


RESULTS
The patient, who had bilateral yellow stippling at the posterior pole, was followed up for 8 years. Both fundi developed creamy, irregular scalloped lesions. Computed tomography showed a bony plate at the posterior pole bilaterally.


CONCLUSIONS
We believe that this is the youngest patient reported to have choroidal osteoma.
