Résumé
The variety of retinal tumors ranges from harmless lesions to benign, locally destructive tumors and life-threatening diseases, and they are not always easy to distinguish from each other. The differential diagnosis includes real neoplasia, reactive inflammatory pathologies and vascular anomalies of the fundus as well. If possible, the diagnosis should be made clinically in order to avoid the danger of tumor cell spread via invasive diagnostic tools. Nevertheless, genetic analysis of the pathology is gaining more importance and adds to the precise characterization of the diagnosis. Depending on the tumor entity, therapy in a specialized center is necessary.
