The retinal detachment was detected in the nasal periphery. No retinal breaks and no active vascular leakage were observed by fundus scopy and fluorescein angiography, respectively. However, 8 months later, the tractional retinal detachment was spontaneously resolved with posterior vitreous detachment.Keywords: retinitis pigmentosa, vitreoretinal traction, retinal detachment http://www.dovepress.com/transient-tractional-retinal-detachment-in-an-eye-with-retinitis-pigme-a5366 |
