Macular findings after macular hole formation. (A) A fundus photograph at the time of macular hole diagnosis. (B) A FA obtained after the diagnosis of the macular hole showed enlargement of the hyperfluorescent area (arrows). (C) An IA obtained after the diagnosis of the macular hole showed the CNV (arrowheads). (D) An OCT image of the macular hole showing an irregularity of the RPE/Bruch complex. (E) The intraoperative discovery of an adherent ERM. The macular hole was retracted and distorted by ERM peeling. (F) An OCT image after surgery, showing a disrupted photoreceptor cell layer, the ellipsoid zone, and an irregularity of the RPE/Bruch complex after macular hole closure. (G) A fundus photograph obtained after macular hole closure. (H) Hyperfluorescent area in a FA was clearly observed post-operatively (arrows) after the vitrectomy and the cataract extraction. (I) An IA showed that the CNV remained after macular hole surgery and its closure (arrows).
