Suspect asymptomatic lesions: Congenital hypertrophy of the Retinal Pigment Epithelium (CHRPE)
Congenital hypertrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium is a rare benign tumor of the ocular fundus that may vary according to three types. It is frequently asymptomatic and diagnosed during routine ophthalmology exam. This lesion has an important differential diagnosis with retinal disease and may...

description | Congenital hypertrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium is a rare benign tumor of the ocular fundus that may vary according to three types. It is frequently asymptomatic and diagnosed during routine ophthalmology exam. This lesion has an important differential diagnosis with retinal disease and may be related to systemic diseases, therefore, it is essential to recognize it and keep the follow-up. In this paper, three different cases of each type of CHRPE were described and documented. Abbreviations: CHRPE = Congenital hypertrophy of the Retinal Pigment Epithelium, RPE = Retinal Pigment Epithelium, CDVA = Corrected Distance Visual Acuity, PIO = Intraocular Pressure, FA = Fluorescein Angiography, FAP = Familial Adenomatous Polyposis, RPEH-FAP = Retinal Pigment Epithelial Hamartomas Associated with Familial Adenomatous Polyposis, OCT = Ocular Coherence Tomography |
