<p>Optic disc pit maculopathy: tamponade of maculoschisis</p>

Abstract: PurposeTo present rapid and safe closure of the pit-macula communication (PMC) by core vitrectomy and adequate duration gas tamponade as our preferred method of resolving optic disc pit (ODP) maculopathy and to define the term “maculoschisis” in ODP maculopathy as an alternative to the term “schisis-like.”Patient and methodsA twenty-four-year-old female presented with an optical coherence tomography (OCT) confirmed ODP and a “giant” communicating maculoschisis cavity. Central macular thickness (CMT) measured 9… Show more

“…Caution is required in the use of physical viscosity at high Mach number, since negative stress can lead to the tensile instability (Morris, 1996b;Monaghan, 2000;Gray et al, 2001). For subsonic applications this is usually not a problem since the strain tensor and velocity divergence are small compared to the pressure.…”

“…The rationale of the PPV use is based on the removal of the vitreous traction on the macula which contribute to the development of ODP-M [1,7]. Additionally, the removal of the source of SRF leakage is considered a main aim in treatment of ODP-M [8][9][10]. In our case, PPV and ILM peeling allowed to remove vitreous traction, whereas the inverted ILM flap over the ODP allowed for prevention of fluid leakage to sub-and intraretinal space from vitreous cavity, and it is reported to be an effective method of ODP-M treatment [11].…”
