Novel treatment (new drug/intervention; established drug/procedure in new situation)
Paediatric choroidal osteoma treated with ranibizumab

Summary

An 11-year-old patient presented with blurred vision in both eyes resulting from bilateral choroidal osteoma. The patient was treated with a course of monthly intravitreal injections of ranibizumab for 3 months and this led to improvement of visual acuity. This effect was sustained without the need for further injections over a 2-year period of follow-up.
