We report a case of atypical circumscribed choroidal hemangioma with retina
l detachment in a 41-year-old man referred with the diagnosis of Harada dis
ease.
B Scan ultrasonography showed an hyperechogenic area extended through the s
clera. Careful examination of the fundus showed a small peripapillary orang
e mass and an inferior retinal detachment.
Surgical exploration revealed an extrascleral hemangioma. Proton beam irrad
iation was followed by retinal reattachement within three months. No recurr
ence has been observed 18 months after treatment.
