Abstract
Case reports

The clinical characteristics of three patients with circumscribed choroidal haemangioma and subfoveal exudation detected by optical coherence tomography are described in this paper. The three patients were successfully treated with photodynamic therapy.

Discussion

Photodynamic therapy is the most adequate therapeutic option for circumscribed choroidal hemangioma associated with subfoveal exudation. Some questions such as whether attempts should be made to obtain a complete tumour regression, laser settings or the way the spots must be applied remain unresolved.

Resumen
Casos clínicos

Se presentan las características clínicas de tres pacientes con hemangioma coroideo circunscrito y exudación subfoveal, detectada mediante tomografía óptica de coherencia, tratados con éxito mediante terapia fotodinámica.

Discusión

La terapia fotodinámica es actualmente la alternativa terapéutica más efectiva para tratar los hemangiomas coroideos circunscritos asociados a exudación subfoveal. Respecto a la utilización de este tratamiento quedan por definir algunas cuestiones como son si se debe buscar o no la desaparición total de la masa tumoral, los parámetros de láser más adecuados en estos casos o la forma de aplicación de los impactos.
