The main group consisted of 16 patients (16 eyes) who underwent surgical treatment using the developed technique of inverted internal limiting membrane (ILM)/ERM flap, preserving an intact retinal zone 0.5 mm wide concentrically around the MH. The control group included 18 patients (18 eyes) who underwent surgery using the peeling technique, classic circular maculorrhexis, and tamponade of the vitreous cavity with a gas-air mixture (SF6).</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Postoperatively in all patients of the main group the edges of the hole were aligned with a preserved local hyporeflective area in the ellipsoid zone of the photoreceptors, and its size gradually decreased with the course of the follow-up (3, 6, and 12 months). The macular hole remained unclosed in two patients from the control group. In the main group there was a statistically significant increase in the mean best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) from 0.19±0.11 preoperatively to 0.57±0.21 by the end of the follow-up (<i>p</i><0.05). The improvement in BCVA in the main group was more pronounced compared to the control group (<i>p</i><0.05). The main group also showed a gradual increase in central retinal sensitivity at all follow-up points. The control group exhibited similar changes, but the increase in central retinal sensitivity was less significant compared to the main group (<i>p</i><0.05).</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>The proposed surgical technique allows achieving high anatomical and functional outcomes without prolonged vitreous cavity tamponade by removing all ERMs that create tangential traction at the edges of the hole, and peeling of the ILM, which serves as a substrate for the subsequent development of epiretinal fibrosis. Additionally, it delicately preserves the proliferative epiretinal tissue at the hole's edge and the retinal structures, establishing the long-term functional outcome of surgical treatment.</p>","PeriodicalId":23529,"journal":{"name":"Vestnik oftalmologii","volume":"140 5","pages":"46-55"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142681855","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Clinical symptoms of HES include late-onset convergent strabismus (esotropia) with a vertical component and restricted ocular motility in the context of substantial eye enlargement associated with high myopia. Identification of the pathognomonic sign (dislocation of the posterior pole from the muscle cone) requires the use of multislice computed tomography (MSCT) of the orbits. Considering the mechanism of HES development, the surgical treatment of choice is various techniques for approximating the superior and lateral rectus muscles, which can be regarded as pathogenetically oriented treatment. If necessary, these procedures may be supplemented by classical interventions.

Three-dimensional distribution of acinar lobules, ducts, and myoepithelial cells is necessary for the effective functioning of the organ. LG is the main organ of immune surveillance of the ocular surface system. The embryogenesis of the gland is regulated by the interaction of genetic mechanisms, internal epigenetic (enzyme systems, hormones) and exogenous factors. There is no doubt that there is a clear genetic program for the implementation of the complex process of embryonic development. The mechanisms regulating LG organogenesis initiate the work of a huge number of structural oncogenes, transcription and growth factors, etc. Studying the expression and selective activity of regulatory genes during organ development, their participation in the differentiation of different cell types is a current trend at the nexus of clinical genetics, molecular biology, embryology and immunocytochemistry. Due to its relatively simple structure and accessibility, human LG is a suitable object for potential application in regenerative medicine. Development of a universal protocol for obtaining functional differentiated secretory epithelium of LG capable of expressing tissue-specific markers is an urgent task. Determining the nature and origin of stem cells and progenitor cells will allow the isolation and multiplication of these cells in culture.
