| Abstract;We report 3 cases of high myopia with foveal detachment, retinoschisis and no macular hole. Case 1, a 55-year-old female, refused surgery and developed macular hole 6 weeks after her initial visit. Case 2, a 69-year-old female, underwent triamcinolone acetonide-assisted vitrectomy with gas tamponade. Postoperatively, foveal detachment and retinoschisis gradually decreased and completely resolved 44 weeks after surgery. Case 3, a 71-year-old female, underwent indocyanine green-assisted vitrectomy with gas tamponade. Postoperatively, foveal detachment and retinoschisis completely resolved only 6 weeks after surgery. However, retinal detachment with a small retinal break in the posterior staphyloma occurred 8 weeks after surgery. The clinical course of these 3 cases was consistent with previous reports indicating the efficacy of vitrectomy for foveal detachment and retinoschisis without macular hole. Retinal break in the posterior staphyloma may develop after vitrectomy with internal limited membrane peeling. (author abst.) |
