Abstract
A case of juxtapapillary capillary retinal angioma associated with a vascularized epiretinal membrane of the macula in a 6-year-old girl is presented. Von-Hippel-Lindau-Syndrome was revealed by molecular genetic methods, and further family members were identified as gene carriers. The retinal angioma embedded in an epiretinal membrane was removed completely with the membrane by pars plana vitrectomy with a good functional result. Histopathology confirmed the diagnosis of capillary angioma.Entities:
