Multimodal Imaging in a Case of Presumed Solitary Circumscribed Retinal Astrocytic Proliferation

Provisionally referred to as presumed solitary circumscribed retinal astrocytic proliferation (PSCRAP), the lesion is a rare, benign retinal tumour that typically presents as white-yellow, opaque, and well circumscribed. Typically, the lesion is stable or may regress spontaneously. In light of the adjacent pigmentation of the tumour and from our retinal imaging, we suggest that the lesion originates from the deep neurosensory retina or the retinal pigment epithelium. Herein, we present a case of this entity in a 36-year-old man with a roundish, parapapillary tumour in his right eye and share its characteristics in the different diagnostic imaging modalities.
