摘要
Purpose:We describe a case of high myopia who developed paravascular retinal rarefaction generated by vitreoretinal adhesion on retinal vessels detected using optical coherence tomography(OCT).Methods:A 31-year-old man received a regular ophthalmologic examination for high myopia including detailed fundus examination and OCT.Results:Detailed fundus examination revealed retinal rarefaction and fissure-like findings alongside the superior temporal retinal artery and vein in the right eye.OCT images revealed vitreoretinal adhesions on the retinal artery and a paravascular cystoid space in the inner retina.There was no retinal detachment.The axial length had increased by 1.50 mm over 15 years.Conclusion:Paravascular retinal rarefaction as well as pseudohole formation caused by vitreoretinal adhesion on retinal vessels was detected in this patient using OCT.OCT might be useful to detect early-stage retinal pathologies caused by paravascular vitreoretinal traction in highly myopic patients.
