Özet

A 24-year old female patient presented to our clinic with bilateral visual impairment since birth. Best corrected visual acuity was light perception in both eyes. At fundus examination there were mulberry-like, yellowish-white nodules along the peripapillary margins. There was attenuation of retinal vasculature, bone-spicule-like pigment deposition in the general fundus, macular edema in the right eye and macular atrophy in the left eye. Fundus autofluorescence (FAF) imaging of the bilateral peripapillary retina and optic nerve head showed increased autofluorescence. It is important to clinically detect retinal astrocytic hamartoma (RAH). It may be with Leber's Congenital Amaurosis and optic nerve drusen.
