Spectral domain optical coherence tomography imaging in optic disk pit associated with outer retinal dehiscence

چکیده
A 37-year-old Bangladeshi male presented with an inferotemporal optic disk pit and serous macular detachment in the left eye. Imaging with spectral domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) revealed a multilayer macular schisis pattern with a small subfoveal outer retinal dehiscence. This case illustrates a rare phenotype of optic disk maculopathy with macular schisis and a small outer retinal layer dehiscence. Spectral domain OCT was a useful adjunct in delineating the retinal layers in optic disk pit maculopathy, and revealed a small area of outer retinal layer dehiscence that could only have been detected on high-resolution OCT.

Three-dimensional imaging of an optic disk pit using high resolution optical coherence tomography.
PURPOSE To clarify the origin of the coexisting fluid in an optic disc pit case by using optical coherence tomography (OCT). METHODS High resolution OCT (Cirrus prototype, Carl Zeiss Meditec) was used for image acquisition;three dimensional segmentation was performed using Food and Drug Administration-approved imaging software (3D-Doctor V4.0, Able software Corp., Lexington, MA) to demonstrat...
متن کاملFunctional microperimetry and SD-OCT confirm consecutive retinal atrophy from optic nerve pit
A congenital anomaly, optic nerve pit is often associated with serous retinal detachment involving macula. Long standing serous detachment leads to outer retinal atrophy and decrease in visual sensitivity. Recently, spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) has been reported to demonstrate a communication between the optic nerve sheath and the subretinal space. Vitreous cavity is propo...
متن کاملRetinal Ganglion Cell Complex in Alzheimer Disease: Comparing Ganglion Cell Complex and Central Macular Thickness in Alzheimer Disease and Healthy Subjects Using Spectral Domain-Optical Coherence Tomography
Introduction: Alzheimer disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia worldwide. The modalities to diagnose AD are generally expensive and limited. Both the central nervous system (CNS) and the retina are derived from the cranial neural crest; therefore, changes in retinal layers may reflect changes in the CNS tissue. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) machine can show delicate retinal layer...
متن کاملTen years follow-up after surgery for a foveal detachment due to optic disc pit: a case report of outer retinal layer healing
BACKGROUND To report a case of complete progressive visual recovery and healing of outer retinal layers after vitrectomy for foveal detachment associated with optic disc pit. CASE PRESENTATION Optical coherence tomography (OCT) follow-up was performed on a 15-year-old boy with deep optic disc pit and foveal detachment, before and for 10 years after vitrectomy with gas. The foveal detachment w...
متن کاملPeripapillary gamma zone pit as dehiscence between Elschnig´s border tissue and Bruch´s membrane with herniation and defect of the retinal nerve fiber layer
BACKGROUND The parapapillary gamma zone has recently been defined as the parapapillary region free of Bruch's membrane. Although it has been reported the presence of defects in peripapillary gamma zone, hitherto undescribed is the herniation of the retinal nerve fiver layer tissue into the peripapillary gamma zone defect with the resulting localized defects in the retinal nerve fiber layer.
