Intravitreal gas injection combined with argon laser photocoagulation for treatment of optic disc pit maculopathy without vitrectomy

ABSTRACT We present the case of a patient with an optic disk pit, presenting with great loss of visual acuity secondary to serous retinal detachment. The management chosen was an intravitreal injection of 0.3 mL of C3F8 (100%), followed by argon laser photocoagulation on the temporal edge of the pit, ), achieving total retinal reattachment , and reabsorption of all subretinal fluid visible at optical coherence tomography after 400 days, in addition to great improvement in visual acuity.

【摘要】我们报告1例视盘凹陷（optic disk pit）患者，该患者因浆液性视网膜脱离出现严重视力丧失。所选治疗方案为玻璃体内注射0.3 mL 100%浓度的C3F8，随后在该凹陷的颞侧边缘实施氩激光光凝术。术后400天随访时，光学相干断层扫描（optical coherence tomography）显示视网膜完全复位，所有视网膜下液均被吸收，患者视力亦得到显著改善。
