A case of RRD with fluidic vitreous humor without PVD. A 12-year-old girl presented with visual loss for 3 days.

Notes: (A) RRD with small atrophic hole was noticed on the inferotemporal quadrant. (B) Preoperative optical coherent tomography showed vitreous–fovea adhesion (no PVD). (C) Although scleral encircling was performed with a high buckle effect, the retinal hole was not closed. External drainage also failed because the liquefied vitreous entered the subretinal space during the drainage. (D) After intravitreal injection of C₃F₈ (0.3 cc), the retina was reattached.

Abbreviations: PVD, posterior vitreous detachment; RRD, rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.
