This 16YO presented with a chronic inferior macula-off rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD). Vision was 20/200.
What’s most unique about this detachment is the rare appearance of intraretinal macrocysts inferonasally.
These cysts are a sign of very long-standing retinal detachments. The multiple demarcation lines also indicate chronicity.
Learning Points:
During RRD repair, the cysts require no special modifications and resolve following retinal reattachment.
