Retinal Vasoproliferative Tumor in Association with Neurofibromatosis Type 1.
Retinal vasoproliferative tumor is an uncommon benign vascular tumor that most often occurs sporadically. Vision loss can occur secondary to retinal fibrosis, subretinal exudation, and neovascular glaucoma. This report describes a functionally monocular patient with neurofibromatosis type 1 who had a vasoproliferative tumor with neovascularization of the iris that was successfully treated with intravitreal bevacizumab and cryotherapy.
