Popis: Objective. To report a rare presentation of solitary retinal capillary hemangioma manifesting with combined retinal detachment as initial presentation and its successful management. Methods. A 35-year-old healthy Indian male presented with combined retinal detachment associated with solitary retinal capillary hemangioma as initial presentation; a clinical entity still not reported in literature. Patient was managed with pars plana vitrectomy combined with retinectomy, endolaser, & silicon oil tamponade with good visual & anatomical recovery. Results. Patient had good clinical outcome with final best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of 6/ 24 and well attached retina at last follow-up. Conclusion. Solitary retinal capillary hemangiomas can rarely present with advanced vitreo-retinal complications like combined retinal detachment as initial manifestation that can be effectively managed with skilled & appropriate surgical intervention.
