Fig. 2. (A) At 1 week after vitrectomy with internal liming membrane (ILM) flap, optical coherence tomography reveals a persisting macular hole covered with the flap (arrowheads). (B) At 3 weeks, macular edema increased with intraretinal fluid surrounding the macular hole. (C) At 5 weeks, intra- and subretinal fluid increased further, and 4 mg of triamcinolone acetonide was injected into the vitreous cavity. (D) At 9 weeks, intra- and subretinal fluid decreased, but macular hole persisted. (E) At 11 weeks, fluid increased again and the triamcinolone acetonide was injected again. (F) At 13 weeks, intra/subretinal fluid decreased and ILM flap appeared as a thickened wedge shape (arrowheads) indicating glial proliferation along the flap. (G) The macular hole was closed with a small subretinal bleb.
