Successful Technique for Closure of Macular Hole Retinal Detachment Using Autologous Retinal Transplant

Macular hole retinal detachment (MHRD) for the most part develops in highly myopic eyes. Several surgical methods have been introduced to treat MHRD. We describe our experience with the autologous retinal transplant in patient with MHRD. A 49-year-old female presented with a 2-week history of a sudd...

description Macular hole retinal detachment (MHRD) for the most part develops in highly myopic eyes. Several surgical methods have been introduced to treat MHRD. We describe our experience with the autologous retinal transplant in patient with MHRD. A 49-year-old female presented with a 2-week history of a sudden decrease in the central vision in the right eye (RE). A 3-port, 25-gauge pars plana vitrectomy was performed with the ILM dye staining and peeling. Endodiathermy was applied around a 1.5-disc diameter neurosensory donor site in the supertemporal retina. The graft was cut with standard 25-gauge curved scissors. Perfluoro-n-octane (PFO) was instilled. The free graft was gently handled until its packing into the macular hole. Two months following the initial PPV, the macular hole was closed, and vision improved from 0.05 to 0.25 logMAR.
