Abstract：
BACKGROUND: Here we report a case of traction retinal detachment (TRD) associated with congenital retinal vascular hypoplasia localized in the superotemporal quadrant that was treated with vitrectomy.
METHODS: A 58 year-old female presented with a gradual decrease of visual acuity (VA) and distorted vision in her left eye. She had a past history of amblyopia in her left eye from early childhood, and a previous examination performed at a nearby hospital revealed that the corrected visual acuity (VA) in that eye was 0.15. Upon initial examination, no abnormal findings were observed in her right eye, yet optic-disc traction and macular rotation with a folded TRD extending superotemporally from the macular region was observed in her left eye. Fluorescein fundus angiography showed a retinal nonperfused area localized in the superotemporal quadrant surrounded by a retinal avascular area. The optic disc in her left eye was smaller than that in her right eye. Vitrectomy was performed to remove the proliferative membrane and created an artificial posterior vitreous detachment (PVD). Following surgery, the patient\'s corrected VA improved from 0.04 to 0.1.
CONCLUSIONS: The present case was likely to be TRD caused by PVD in the presence of localized congenital retinal vascular hypoplasia secondary to optic-disc hypoplasia.
