Optical Coherence Tomography Imaging of Choroidal Abnormalities in Neurofibromatosis Type 1

الملخص EN

We report a case of neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) examined by infrared fundus autofluorescence (IR-FAF) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) to characterize the associated choroidal abnormalities.

The conventional ophthalmoscopic findings were unremarkable.

However, IR-FAF revealed multiple bright patchy lesions in the choroid of the posterior pole, in both eyes.

OCT demonstrated irregular hyperreflectivity at the sites of these lesions.

Patients with NF1 may have typical choroidal lesions that are visible on IR-FAF, which can be confirmed through OCT.
