Özet

In this article, we reported a patient with two rare retinal vascular anomalies together; congenital retinal macrovessel (CRM) and prepapillary vascular loop. We diagnosed this two rare anomalies incidentally during an eye examination in the right eye of a 70 years old male patient. Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 20/20 in both eyes. There were no signs of complications. Fundus fl uorescein angiography (FFA) of the right eye revealed an abnormal artery. At optic coherence tomography (OCT) of the right eye, abnormal vessel was seen at fovea. Neurological examination, brain and orbital magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and MRI angiography of the brain and the orbit were normal. CRMs, where an aberrant retinal vessel is present in the posterior pole and may cross the avascular foveal region and prepapillary vascular loop formations are seen rarely. Before our case only one case in the literature has been reported in the same condition.
