Type 3 pathway of FTMH formation in the right eye of a 29-year-old woman with PDR. (a) Fundus photography showed PDR with FVP located mainly on the upper retina (incomplete arcade type). (b) OCT showed TRD with foveoschisis. (c,d) 1 month later, FVP became more condensed on fundus photography, and MHRD (MH minimal diameter 452 μm) developed. (e,f) 4 years after operation, the retina was attached while a persistent MH enlarging gradually with time was revealed by OCT; vitrectomy with anterior lens capsule flap insertion was performed. (g,h) 4 months after surgery, the retina was attached and the FTMH was closed.
