Abstract
Background: Duplication of the optic disc is a rare phenomenon. Differentiating between true duplication and pseudo-duplication requires a comprehensive set of diagnostic procedures. Advancements in imaging provide new insights into this condition.
Case presentation: This report details a unique case involving an 8-year-old Han Chinese girl diagnosed with uveal colobomas and pseudo-duplication of the optic disc in both eyes. The extensive multimodal examination included assessments of vision, fundus examination, fundus photography, B-scan ultrasonography, ultra-widefield swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography, fundus fluorescein angiography, fundus autofluorescence, and magnetic resonance imaging.
Conclusion: Ultra-widefield swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography proves to be a vital tool for examining and monitoring uveal colobomas with pseudo-duplication of the optic disc.
期刊介绍:
JMCR is an open access, peer-reviewed online journal that will consider any original case report that expands the field of general medical knowledge. Reports should show one of the following: 1. Unreported or unusual side effects or adverse interactions involving medications 2. Unexpected or unusual presentations of a disease 3. New associations or variations in disease processes 4. Presentations, diagnoses and/or management of new and emerging diseases 5. An unexpected association between diseases or symptoms 6. An unexpected event in the course of observing or treating a patient 7. Findings that shed new light on the possible pathogenesis of a disease or an adverse effect
