Abstract
Choroidal osteoma is a rare tumor that is benign in nature, which is an ossifying tumor involving the choroid. We report a case of a 37 year old male patient presenting with unilateral, gradual, painless, progressive loss of vision; diagnosed as choroidal osteoma with choroidal neovasculae membrane with subretinal fluid and intraretinal oedema on fundus examination and confirmed on optical coherence tomography. The calcified mass was noted on B-scan ultrasound and computed tomography. Then patient was treated with intravitreal injection of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor once in a month for 3 months and patient was observed to have significant visual recovery and regression of subretinal fluid. We describe its distinguishing features with emphasis on multimodal and aggressive approach which ensures appropriate management of this rare tumor.
