ABSTRACT
Variations in the morphology of the aneurysm and its serosanguineous complications serve to make a retinal arteriolar macroaneurysm, a common masquerading entity, particularly if it is accompanied by another unassociated retinal vascular abnormality. The authors present a patient who had an unusually large retinal arteriolar macroaneurysm in conjunction with a congenital retinal macrovessel. [Ophthalmic Surg Lasers Imaging 2009;40:513-515.]
