Abstract
A 32-year-old man presented with coexisting orbital hemangioma and juxtapapillary exophytic capillary hemangioma. Fluorescein and indocyanine green angiography revealed exophytic juxtapapillary retinal capillary hemangioma. The orbital cavernous hemangioma was surgically removed, and the retinal capillary hemangioma was observed without treatment. Subretinal hemorrhage gradually absorbed and clinical symptoms improved. Juxtapapillary exophytic capillary hemangioma can cause subretinal bleeding secondary to external pressure from an adjacent orbital cavernous hemangioma. Coexistence of both tumors suggests a common etiology.
