Fig. 1. Spectral domain optical coherence tomography scan of the macular zone (before surgery). Retinal detachment. Macular hole (red arrow) with a diameter of 380 µm
Fig. 2. Intraoperative fundus image: macular hole in the center of the retina (white arrow). Retinal detachment in the superior, temporal and inferior quadrants
Fig. 3. Spectral domain optical coherence tomography scan of the macular region (24 h after surgery). The macular hole is closed, there is a hyperreflective structure represented by the fibrin film on the retinal surface (blue arrow)
Fig. 4. Spectral domain optical coherence tomography scan of the macular region (one month after surgery). Apparent macular profile (green arrow). The “retinal pigment epithelium — Bruch's membrane” complex and discontinuous external limiting membrane are visible
Fig. 5. Spectral domain optical coherence tomography scan of the macular region (six months after surgery). Apparent macular profile (green arrow). The “retinal pigment epithelium — Bruch's membrane”complex is visible. Partially restored segmentation of the external retinal layers (discontinuous external limiting membrane), partially restored photoreceptor zone of the retina
