Congenital Hypertrophy of the Retinal Pigmented Epithelium


Today, I had the opportunity to research Congenital hypertrophy of the retinal pigmented epithelium (CHRPE). CHRPE is usually found before patients reach the age of 30 and may enlarge with time/ There has been an association made between people with Gardner's syndrome and CHRPE. CHRPE lesions are typically solitary, flat, well-demarcated, hyperpigmented lesions of the retina. To learn more about CHRPE, click on the link below!
