Abstract
Retinal arteriovenous malformations (racemose angiomas) are usually described as non-changing congenital vascular anomalies. The authors describe prominent retinal vascular changes that occurred in the fundus of a patient with a complex retinal arteriovenous malformation as part of the Wyburn-Mason syndrome during a follow-up period of 17 years.

Die Autoren beschreiben auffällige Veränderungen der Netzhautgefäße am Augenhintergrund eines Patienten mit komplexen arteriovenösen Mißbildungen als Teilsymptom eines Wyburn-Mason-Syndroms über eine Nachuntersuchungszeit von 17 Jahren.
