Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This multicenter, retrospective, observational comparative study. We occasionally encounter FTMHs in which PVD has not been achieved and VMT is absent. These FTMHs cannot be defined by stage in the Gass1) or IVTS3) classification. It is not known whether traction is involved in the development of these atypical macular holes, but they are often classified as Gass stage 2 or 3 according to the size of the hole.

The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical features and surgical outcomes of FTMHs without focal VMT and to discuss possible underlying mechanisms.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The clinical characteristics and surgical outcomes the patients diagnosed with FTMH without focal VMT in the macula (classified as VMT-) are presented, in addition to a comparative analysis of the patients presenting with classic stage 2 FTMH with focal VMT (classified as VMT+) according to international classification criteria.
