Abstract

Purpose: To report a case of posttraumatic retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) tear complicated with exudative retinal detachment that underwent spontaneous resolution.

Methods: Case report.

Results: A 61-year-old healthy female presented with sudden-onset loss of vision in the left eye for 5 days following blunt trauma. She had undergone left upper eyelid and eyebrow laceration repair elsewhere. A comprehensive ophthalmic examination revealed a subfoveal RPE tear with exudative retinal detachment in the left eye. There was spontaneous healing of RPE tear and complete resolution of exudative retinal detachment 2 weeks following the initial presentation.

Conclusions: RPE tear is an extremely rare complication following blunt trauma. The size of the RPE tear can play an important role in determining the final visual prognosis in such cases.

外伤后视网膜色素上皮撕裂及相关渗出性视网膜脱离的自发性消退

目的：报告一例外伤后视网膜色素上皮（RPE）撕裂并发渗出性视网膜脱离的病例：方法：病例报告：一名 61 岁的健康女性在钝性外伤后突然左眼视力丧失 5 天。她曾在其他地方接受过左上眼睑和眉毛裂伤修复手术。全面的眼科检查显示，左眼眼底 RPE 膜下撕裂，伴有渗出性视网膜脱离。初次就诊两周后，RPE撕裂自发愈合，渗出性视网膜脱离完全消退：RPE撕裂是钝性外伤后一种极为罕见的并发症。结论：RPE撕裂是钝性外伤后极为罕见的并发症，RPE撕裂的大小在决定此类病例的最终视力预后方面起着重要作用。
