International Validation of Myopic Traction Maculopathy Staging System

Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging Retina, 2023
Background and Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the interobserver agreement of the myopic traction maculopathy (MTM) staging system (MSS). Patients and Methods: Each observer was asked to look at the MSS Table and then identify, in each optical coherence tomography ...

The new Myopic Traction Maculopathy Staging System

European Journal of Ophthalmology, 2020
Purpose: To describe a comprehensive OCT-based classification of myopic traction maculopathy (MTM). Methods: Two hundred eighty-one eyes with MTM (visited from 2006 to 2018), were retrospectively reviewed for age, best-corrected-visual-acuity (BCVA), axial length (AL), optical coherence tomography (OCT), and wide-field color fundus-photographs.

Myopic Tractional Maculopathy

2020
Myopic tractional maculopathy (MTM) is named by composition of three words: myopia, traction, and maculopathy. Myopia with MTM is pathologic myopia having posterior staphyloma as a hallmark. Traction to the macula arises from the outpouching sclera and abnormalities of vitreomacular interface.

Myopic tractional maculopathy: An overview

Egyptian Retina Journal, 2020
The concept of splitting of the retinal layers was known since 1958 when first described by Calbert Phillips. However it was not until the advent of Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) when this pathology was studied with more depth. The term Myopic Foveoschisis was first suggested by Takano in 1999 to describe the separation of retinal layers in ...

Myopic Traction Maculopathy

2014
Myopic traction maculopathy is a high myopia-related complication caused by several mechanisms with traction as a common pathway. Macular hole-related retinal detachment is considered to be the final stage of progressive foveoschisis. In this setting, release of all vitreous and epiretinal tractions is essential in order to achieve surgical success ...

Inter-Eye Comparison in Highly Myopic Patients with Unilateral Myopic Traction Maculopathy

Current Eye Research, 2021
To evaluate the risk factors for myopic traction maculopathy (MTM) through inter-eye comparisons of asymmetric ocular features in patients with unilateral MTM.Highly myopic patients with unilateral MTM were enrolled in the study. The results of comprehensive ophthalmologic examinations, color fundus images, and optical coherence tomography (OCT) were ...

CLINICOPATHOLOGIC CORRELATION OF PRERETINAL TISSUES IN MYOPIC TRACTION MACULOPATHY

Retina, 2021
Purpose: To evaluate histopathologic features of preretinal tissues removed from eyes with myopic traction maculopathy (MTM). Methods: We retrospectively studied preretinal tissue specimens from eyes with MTM removed during pars plana vitrectomy.

Myopic Traction Maculopathy: Guidelines to Treatment

2021
Myopic Traction Maculopathy (MTM) is a complex and progressive disease that may affect one-third of high myopic eyes. The pathogenesis of MTM is multifactorial and, despite numerous published studies, still not fully understood. The interaction of different forces exerted by the ILM, the sclera and by epiretinal affections seems to be responsible for ...

The Diversity of Traction Mechanisms in Myopic Traction Maculopathy

American Journal of Ophthalmology, 2012
To identify the major traction mechanisms that cause myopic traction maculopathy and to determine whether surgery can be tailored successfully to the specific mechanism involved.Nonrandomized, retrospective, interventional case series.We performed a chart review of consecutive patients who underwent vitreoretinal surgery for myopic traction maculopathy
