| Abstract |
|
Numerous cicatrizing and granulomatous diseases that simultaneously involve choroid, retina and their intervening Bruch's membrane may cause choroidoretinal vascular anastomoses. Anastomoses at capillary level and in neovascular granulomatous tissue are probably not uncommon under these and related circumstances, but choroidal connections to large-caliber segments of otherwise normal retinal arterioles and venules are unusual. We retrospectively studied 44 eyes of 44 patients with choroidal ruptures after blunt trauma. Of 44 choroidal ruptures, three patients had chorioretinal ruptures and choroidoretinal vascular anastomoses. This report describes three cases of large-caliber choroidoretinal anastomoses after chorioretinal ruptures. |
