DELAYED ONSET OF SPONTANEOUS LARGE FULL THICKNESS MACULAR HOLE CLOSURE.
Purpose: Reporting this rare case of spontaneous delayed-onset full-thickness macular hole (ftMH) closure after unsuccessful initial surgical treatment encourages to have new perspectives on the mechanism behind this retinal process.
Methods: Uneventful 27-gauge vitrectomy was performed in a 71-year-old female patient for large (460 µm) macular hole (MH). The surgery was combined with peeling of the ILM, SF6 tamponade and head down positioning for 3 days. No closure of the MH was detected within 4 weeks after surgery and visual acuity remained unchanged. The patient refused a re-vitrectomy.
Results: More than four years after surgery a progressive closure of the macular hole was detected clinically and on optical coherence tomography with recovery of vision to 0.4 LogMAR (20/50).
Conclusion: This rare case shows that full mechanisms of macular hole closure yet remain unclear and need to be studied further.
