RÉSUMÉ
A series is presented of sixteen cases of retinal capillary haemangioma (RCH) from consecutive patients at an ophthalmology teaching hospital in Mexico City. There were seven primary haemangioblastomas, and nine due to von Hippel-Lindau disease (VHL). All cases associated with VHL already had systemic manifestations, such as, cerebellar, medullary and renal tumours. Treatment of capillary haemangiomas must be individualised, based on several factors, including the number of lesions, exudation, or presence of retinal detachment. A multidisciplinary approach is essential.

Se presenta una serie de 16 casos de hemangioma capilar retiniano de pacientes valorados en un hospital oftalmológico de enseñanza en la Ciudad de México: 7 de ellos eran hemangioblastomas primarios y 9 eran secundarios a enfermedad de von Hippel-Lindau. Todos los casos relacionados con esta enfermedad presentaban en ese momento manifestaciones sistémicas como: tumores cerebelosos, medulares o renales. El tratamiento para el hemangioma capilar retiniano debe ser individualizado con base en diversos factores como el número de lesiones, la exudación o la presencia de desprendimiento de retina asociado. Se debe de contar con un abordaje multidisciplinario (AU)
