Macular holes in the setting of macular telangiectasia type 2 can be difficult to manage. The rates of anatomical closure after macular hole surgery are less favorable in patients with macular telangiectasia than in those with idiopathic macular holes. These differences may be due to the influence of unique pathogenic mechanisms that modulate macular hole dynamics in patients with macular telangiectasia. In this report, the authors document the multimodal imaging findings of a patient with macular telangiectasia demonstrating spontaneous macular hole closure. These findings may improve the understanding of the natural course of this entity and may have relevance for clinical management.
2型黄斑毛细血管扩张症患者的黄斑裂孔可能难以处理。黄斑裂孔手术后,黄斑毛细血管扩张症患者的解剖学闭合率低于特发性黄斑裂孔患者。这些差异可能是由于独特的致病机制影响了黄斑毛细血管扩张症患者黄斑裂孔的动态变化。在本报告中,作者记录了一名黄斑毛细血管扩张症患者自发闭合黄斑裂孔的多模态影像学表现。这些发现可能会增进对该疾病自然病程的理解,并可能与临床管理相关。
