Background/Purpose:
To present the first reported case of outer retinal tubulations in the setting of a rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.
Methods:
Case report.
Patients:
A 56-year-old man presented with a right eye retinal detachment of unclear duration. On examination, he was found to have a chronic-appearing rhegmatogenous retinal detachment involving the peripheral macula with a demarcation line.
Results:
Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography revealed outer retinal tubulations in the area of demarcation but not in the area of the detached retina.
Conclusion:
Outer retinal tubulations have been described in a wide spectrum of retinal diseases. The authors herein present the first reported case of outer retinal tubulations in the setting of a rhegmatogenous retinal detachment which may further aid in describing their pathogenesis.
