Abstract
-
The author has recently experienced a case of subretinal cysticercosis(OS) which simulated subretinal tumor such as choridal melanoma. In close observation, subretinal cysticercosis was found that it had a characteristic heaving and undulatory morements. Any ocular complication such as uveitis was not found. This case was not associated with other systemic lesion. Subretinal cysticercosis was removed surgically but prognosis for vision was expected to be or because it involved macular region.
