Combined hamartoma of the retina and RPE: an unusual cause of the dragged disc appearance.

C A Harper, G A Gole.   

Abstract

Combined hamartoma of the retina and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), is a rare, benign, congenital fundal lesion which contains a mixture of glial tissue, blood vessels and pigment epithelium. Such tumours are variably pigmented and may be wrongly diagnosed as malignant melanoma or retinoblastoma. We report two cases which were located in the periphery of the fundus and which produced a dragged disc appearance.
