Retinocytoma is a rare benign form of retinoblastoma. It is usually found on routine examinations and also while screening families of patients with retinoblastoma. Distinctive features are a translucent retinal mass with calcification, retinal pigment epithelial disturbance, chorioretinal atrophy and absence of growth. We report a case with all the above features along with diffuse vitreous seeds and optical coherence tomographic documentation of intralesional cavitary lesions. |
