    Description
    We present the case of a 33 year-old woman with visual loss of her left eye since childhood. Fundus examination revealed a retinal arteriovenous malformation with vessels originating from the optic nerve and extending to the fovea and equator, corresponding to a type 3 retinal racemose hemangioma (A). Infrared reflectance imaging confirmed findings described in funduscopy (B). Spectral domain optical coherence tomography shows dilated vessels in the internal and external retinal layers and adjacent intraretinal fluid (C).
