dc.description.abstractPurpose: To evaluate results of the surgical treatment for large stage (Stage 3 and 4) idiopathic macular hole cases with and without ILM flap technique. Methods: Sixty eyes of 60 patients diagnosed with idiopathic macular hole (MH) were included in the study. Complete ophthalmologic examination and SD-OCT examination were performed in all eyes. MH stages, MH base diameter, height and closest distance were measured quantitatively. Postoperative and 3 months visits were evaluated. Results: The mean age of the cases was 65.0 ± 8.0 (range 30–84) years, there were 31 (51.7%) female and 29 (48.3%) male patients with a mean follow-up period of 18.1 ± 16.7 (range 3–63) months. The mean best corrected visual acuity recorded at preoperative and third month control visits were 0.89 ± 0.40(preoperative) logMAR, 0.82 ± 0.60(3 month) logMAR (p < 0.05). The mean MH index was 0.48 ± 0.16, the closest hole distance was 517.86 ± 210.89 µm and mean basal diameter of holes was 947.78 ± 361.90 µm and the average height was 448.93 ± 79.80 microns. There was no statistically significant difference between anatomic results of macular hole surgery with (n = 22) and without (n = 38) flap in terms of hole closure (86.4% vs. 92.1% p > 0.05). In 90% (54 cases) of the cases, closure was observed after the first surgery. Two eyes that failed macular hole surgery were reoperated. In one of these eyes, anatomical success was obtained with macular hole massage and mechanical cytumulation. However, anatomical success could not be achieved in the other eye. Conclusıon: In the treatment of large macular holes, pars plana vitrectomy, internal limiting membrane peeling with/without flap and gas tamponade demonstrated high anatomical and functional success. © The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature B.V. 2024.
