To report the response of cavernous haemangioma of the disc to PDT.
A 32 years old lady presented to us with complaints of sudden onset of blurry vision in her right eye. What seemed initially as polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy turned out as cavernous haemangioma of the disc after pneumatic displacement of the sub-retinal haeme. She was treated with PDT as she was prone to recurrent haemorrhage from the lesion due to her low platelet count.
Complete regression of the cavernous haemangioma was noted as early as the second week itself and remained regressed for 4 months.
PDT can be safe option for patients presenting with symptomatic cavernous haemangioma of the disc or retina.
报告椎间盘海绵状血管瘤对光动力疗法（PDT）的反应。
一名32岁女性因右眼突然出现视力模糊前来就诊。最初看似息肉样脉络膜血管病变，在视网膜下出血经气体置换后，结果诊断为椎间盘海绵状血管瘤。由于她血小板计数低，该病变易于反复出血，因此对她进行了光动力疗法治疗。
早在第二周就注意到海绵状血管瘤完全消退，并持续消退了4个月。
对于出现有症状的椎间盘或视网膜海绵状血管瘤的患者，光动力疗法可能是一种安全的选择。
