CO-EXISTENCE OF RARE CONGENITAL ANOMALIES: OPTIC DISC PIT WITH MACULOPATHY AND OPTIC DISC COLOBOMA

Optic disc pit and optic disc coloboma are rare congenital anomalies of the optic nerve. Their co-existence, particularly with optic disc pit maculopathy, is extremely uncommon. A 20-year-old male presented with decreased vision in the right eye. Fundus examination revealed a temporally located optic disc pit associated with an adjacent optic disc coloboma. Optical coherence tomography demonstrated disc pit maculopathy with schisis-like retinal separation and serous macular detachment. This case highlights the rare association of optic disc pit, maculopathy, and optic disc coloboma.

Abstract

Optic disc pit and optic disc coloboma are rare congenital anomalies of the optic nerve. Their co-existence, particularly with optic disc pit maculopathy, is extremely uncommon. A 20-year-old male presented with decreased vision in the right eye. Fundus examination revealed a temporally located optic disc pit associated with an adjacent optic disc coloboma. Optical coherence tomography demonstrated disc pit maculopathy with schisis-like retinal separation and serous macular detachment. This case highlights the rare association of optic disc pit, maculopathy, and optic disc coloboma.
