Myopic tractional maculopathy: An overview
Egyptian Retina Journal, 2020The 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 ...

The Diversity of Traction Mechanisms in Myopic Traction Maculopathy
American Journal of Ophthalmology, 2012To 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

Myopic traction maculopathies and their treatments
Expert Review of Ophthalmology, 2016ABSTRACTIntroduction: Pathologic myopia is associated with structural and physiological posterior segment changes, including myopic tractional maculopathies, which can be associated with sight threatening complications. With higher resolution ophthalmic imaging techniques and access to more advanced surgical treatment options, myopic tractional ...

[Macular buckling for highly myopic traction maculopathy].
[Zhonghua yan ke za zhi] Chinese journal of ophthalmology, 2021Objective: To observe the efficacy of macular buckling in the treatment of highly myopic traction maculopathy. Methods: Retrospective case series study. The patients with high myopia who underwent macular buckling at the Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center of Sun Yat-sen University from June 2014 to June 2019 were enrolled, including 136 males and 212 females.

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 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 ...

Surgery for Myopic Traction Maculopathy [PDF]
Myopic traction maculopathy (MTM) is characterized by retinal thickening, retinoschisis, lamellar macular hole, and foveal retinal detachment and is a major cause of visual impairment in high myopia. As MTM may progress to full-thickness macular hole and macular hole retinal detachment during its natural course, vitreous surgery is effective in ...

Myopic Traction Maculopathy: Guidelines to Treatment
2021Myopic 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 ...
