I definitely think that you did not peel the ILM. You poured the ILM on the vitreous cortex and easily removed it from the optic nerve and macula with the vitrector. You should have stained again with an ILM staining to verify. Many small holes might close only inducing a PVD like you did. BARBARA PAROLINI, ITALY

It is posterior hyaloid.

wonderful surgery what are the parameters used in suction-vacuum ,IOP

If you use ICG prior to inducing a PVD (most macular hole cases do not have complete PVD) you will get staining of ILM. Some folks use this instead of triamcinolone. Inducing a PVD then allows for ILM to come with it in some areas, which may in some cases create a rent in ILM, as it may be adherent to the hyaloid. Once elevated, the cutter can be used to complete the ILM peel. However, in cases where there is already PVD, using a cutter to start a ILM peel is dangerous if not impossible. This is an interesting video, but with modern forceps there is no reason to try this method here.

Interesting video, certainly, but I would have also liked to see restraining for verification. Maybe I am a lesser surgeon, but I have not had much luck aspirating off the ILM in a large, satisfying swathe after initiating a rent (although I do universally use 27g).

ICG does not stain the vitreous or the hyaloid. For more information regarding different dyes in vitreoretinal surgery I recommend Stephen J. Ryan RETINA Volume III Fifth Edition Chapter 127: Pharmacology at Surgery.

I would consider the possibility of cellophane maculopaty

I agree! That's the posterior hyaloid! Restaining would be useful in these cases

Hello Dr Murray and Villegas, my name is Lily Arosemena, retina specialist from Panama city. I would like to know how you do to make the break on the ILM, suction only? what suction power? can you share your parameters please? on 23 Gauge? thank you !!

Looks like posterior hyaloid peeling to me. The glistening seen when you begin the peeling near the arcade is a sure sign of posterior hyaloid.
