ABSTRACT
We included 97 patients with unilateral rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) with posterior vitreous detachment who underwent vitrectomy, and examined pigmentary lesion (PL) characteristics around the sites of original tears using pre- and postoperative ultra-widefield scanning light ophthalmoscopy, green light fundus autofluorescence (FAF) imaging, and intraoperative digital video. If PL did not involve RRD, we used OCT to preoperatively assess any pathologic changes to the lesion. A total of 116 retinal tears (mean count, 1.2 ± 0.5; range, 1-4 per eye) were observed in the detached retina. Overall, 102 (88%), 63 (54%), 14 (12%), and 25 (22%) tears were accompanied by lattice degeneration (LD) or PL, both LD and PL, only LD, and only PL, respectively. In green FAF images, LD showed normal to mild-hyper fluorescence, whereas all PL showed hypofluorescence. On OCT, PL were located at the RPE level, while choroid abnormalities were unclear. In the retinal areas of 22 eyes, which were not affected by RRD, we observed PL without retinal tears; some were accompanied by vitreous traction and tractional retinal detachment. Pre-, intra-, and post-operative assessments of original flap tears suggested that PL might be a risk factor for RRD, developing alongside or separately from LD.
