CHOROIDAL NEOVASCULARIZATION AFTER MACULAR PLUG SURGERY
Choroidal neovascularization occurring after inverted internal limiting membrane flap surgery with a fill variant shares characteristics such as foveal involvement and poor visual outcomes, likely because of high exudative activity and fibrosis. These findings highlight the need for careful monitoring of CNV in patients undergoing macular plug surgery, particularly those using the inverted internal limiting membrane flap technique. Moreover, we describe the development of CNV inside hAM in the context of peri-hAM atrophy after successful refractory macular hole surgery, without exudative properties beyond the hAM.
