PurposeThe purpose of this study is to present the outcomes of a series of patients with choroidal neovascular membrane (choroidal neovascularisation (CNV)) secondary to a choroidal osteoma undergoing anti-VEGF monotherapy.Patients and methodsRetrospective series of patients with choroidal neovascularization secondary to choroidal osteoma. All patients underwent clinical and imaging assessment (fundus photo, B-scan ultrasonography, fluorescein angiography, and optical coherence tomography-where available), and were managed with intravitreal anti-VEGF injections (Bevacizumab). Visual acuity and central retinal thickness were recorded pre treatment and at the end of the follow-up period.ResultsEight patients were included in this study. Of this, 6/8 had predominantly classic or classic and 2/8 patients had minimally classic or occult CNV. Each patient received 3-10 injections of bevacizumab. Median follow-up was 9 months (3-15 months). Visual acuity improved in 5 patients, by 2-6 Snellen lines. CNV completely regressed in 5 cases and partially regressed in 3 cases. Mean CRT reduction was 122 μm (6 to -230 μm).ConclusionIntravitreal bevacizumab can be an effective treatment modality in the management of vision threatening CNV secondary to choroidal osteoma.
