Melanocytoma of the optic disc is a benign melanocytic tumour that rarely causes visual impairment. We report a rare case of choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in association with optic disc melanocytoma and its response to intravitreal injection of the anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), bevacizumab. The choroidal neovascular membrane regressed following a single intravitreal bevacizumab injection with formation of a scar. CNV associated with optic disc melanocytoma is rare. Intravitreal anti-VEGF treatment may be an effective treatment for CNV associated with optic disc melanocytoma.
视盘黑色素细胞瘤是一种良性黑素细胞肿瘤,很少引起视力损害。我们报告一例罕见的脉络膜新生血管形成(CNV)合并视盘黑色素细胞瘤病例,以及其对玻璃体内注射抗血管内皮生长因子(VEGF)药物贝伐单抗的反应。单次玻璃体内注射贝伐单抗后,脉络膜新生血管膜消退并形成瘢痕。视盘黑色素细胞瘤相关的CNV很罕见。玻璃体内抗VEGF治疗可能是视盘黑色素细胞瘤相关CNV的有效治疗方法。
