ObjectiveTo evaluate the clinical features of 18 cases of juxtapapillary capillary hemangioma.MethodsIn 18 cases of 18 cases of juxtapapillary capillary hemangioma,the clinical datd of 19 eyes,the results of funds fluorescein angiography(FFA) of 16 eyes ,and the follow-up observation of 7eyes were retrospectively analyzed.ResultsIn 18 cases,the sex retio of male and female is 1:2 with the average age of 28.9 years.Peripheral retinal angioma was found in 3 cases(4eyes). In19 eyes,thr center of hemangioma was located beyond the rim of optic,most of which was in inferotemporal quadrant of the optic (7/19) with the size of 1-2.5 disc diameter (DD).Most of the tumors were red in colour (12/19).In the result of FFA of 16 eyes ,wash-out at the late phase was found in 13 eyes.decreased acuity was found in all 7 cases that were followed up more than 12 months (including 5 cases treated by laser photocoagulation).retinal detachment did't occur in 6 cases without exudative retinal detachment after being follow-up for 54.5 months of the average term.ConclusionMost of the juxtapiallary capillary hemangioma are orange or red oval tumors.The center of hemangioma are located beyond the rim of the optic.The patients often complain gradually decreased visual acuity when they are in prime of their life with exudation and edema in different degree around the tumor,FFA is helpful for the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of this disease.(Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,2004,20:1-4)
