Posterior vitreoschisis. An echographic finding in proliferative diabetic retinopathy

Ophthalmology

Abstract

To describe the echographic characteristics of splitting the outer posterior cortical vitreous in patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy and vitreous hemorrhage. The authors retrospectively reviewed the echographic findings in 270 patients who were evaluated at the Doheny Eye Institute between January 1983 to December 1989 for proliferative diabetic retinopathy and vitreous hemorrhage. None of the eyes had undergone pars plana vitrectomy before echographic examination. Forty-five patients (17%) had echographic evidence of splitting of the outer posterior vitreous cortex, a finding the authors have termed posterior vitreoschisis. In all patients, differentiation of the posterior vitreoschisis from a true posterior hyaloid detachment was possible, either on the initial or on serial echographic examination, by the separate detachment of the inner wall of the vitreoschisis cavity and the true posterior hyaloid from the retinal surface. The vitreoschisis cavities often were found to contain unclotted blood. In some eyes, the inner wall of the vitreoschisis cavity was adherent to the apex of the most highly elevated area of traction retinal detachment, suggesting that posterior vitreoschisis may itself result in clinically ...Continue Reading
