From: Full-thickness macular hole formation in proliferative diabetic retinopathy
Type 2 pathway of FTMH formation in the right eye of a 59-year-old woman with PDR. (a) Lamellar macular hole (LMH) with foveoschisis induced by ERM and fibrovascular proliferation (FVP) was shown on OCT. (b) 1 year later, the ERM and FVP (arrow) separated from the fovea, but abnormal macular configuration persisted. (c,d) 1 month later, widespread type of FVP was noted on fundus photography, and a large FTMH (598 μm, arrow) developed. Subretinal fibrosis (arrowhead) was shown on OCT. (e,f) 1.5 years after surgery, the retina was attached on the fundus photography, and OCT showed U-shaped closure.
