Peripapillary detachment in pathologic myopia: Unusual OCT findings

PURPOSE To report an unusual case of myopic peripapillary retinal detachment (PPRD) imaged by optical coherence tomography (OCT). METHODS Observational case report. RESULTS OCT showed a nonreflective space between the retinal pigment epithelium and the neurosensory retina with the presence of bridging tissue that could be defined as an outer retinal schisis, which is not typical of myopic PPRD. CONCLUSION This case suggests that the spectrum of PPRD in pathological myopia may extend beyond that already described.
