ABSTRACT

Introduction: The simple congenital hamartoma of the retinal pigment epithelium (HCSEPR) is a benign, unilateral and solitary tumor, which is usually located near the macula, adjacent to the fovea, and remain unchanged throughout life. Case Report: A 62-year-old is diagnosed by clinical symptoms and optical coherence tomography (OCT) of (CSHRPE) discovered in a routine eye examination. Remains unchanged in subsequent revisions. Discussion: correct differential diagnosis of malignant lesion with other character should be performed, and proper follow up for screening of possible complications including exudation and retinal contraction. Conclusion: The differential diagnosis of CSHRPE with other types of tumors is very important, for this we rely primarily on OCT.
