Internal Limiting Membrane Flaps for Coexistent Macular Hole and Retinal Detachment in Eyes with Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy.
Purpose: To evaluate logical surgical approaches to closing macular holes in eyes with proliferative diabetic retinopathy with retinal detachment.
Methods: Retrospective, interventional case series.
Results: 10 eyes in 10 patients were included in this study. The inverted internal limiting membrane (ILM) flap technique was used in 2 eyes, while inverted ILM insertion was used in 5 eyes, and free ILM flaps in 3 eyes. Closed macular holes and retinal reattachment were observed in all eyes. Best corrected visual acuity improved from 1.33 ± 0.39 preoperatively to 1.02 ± 0.36 postoperatively ( p =0.03).
Conclusion: Various surgical approaches utilized in managing macular holes may effectively close macular holes and reattach retinas. This trial is registered with NCT 03618498.
