    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Retinal Diseases
    • Vitreoretinal Surgery

    Background:

    • Terson's syndrome involves vitreous hemorrhage.
    • Epiretinal membranes can develop in chronic cases.

    Observation:

    • An elevated, dome-shaped membrane was observed in the posterior pole.
    • Microscopic examination revealed blood elevating the posterior vitreous face.
    • The internal limiting membrane remained intact.

    Findings:

    • The dome-shaped structure is caused by subhyaloid hemorrhage.
    • Hemorrhage detaches the posterior hyaloid face, creating a scaffold.
    • Chronic cases show epiretinal membranes composed of glial cells and basement membrane material.

    Implications:

    • Understanding Terson's syndrome pathology is crucial for diagnosis.
    • Distinguishing epiretinal membranes from retinal detachment via echography is important.
    • This research clarifies the pathogenesis of epiretinal membrane formation in Terson's syndrome.
