Résumé:Copyright 2019, SLACK Incorporated.
A 57-year-old female presented with macula-involving retinal detachment secondary to degenerative retinoschisis. She was repaired with transscleral cryotherapy to both inner and outer retinoschisis breaks followed by intravitreal sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) gas injection and anterior chamber paracentesis. Postoperative imaging at 4 months showed preserved fovea and completely attached retina. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first report in the literature treating retinoschisis-related detachment with this minimally invasive technique without subretinal fluid drainage.
