Özet

A 40-year-old male presented with de-creased vision following trauma from a stone. The view of the posterior segment was precluded due to cortex material. Ocular ultrasonography detected total retinal detachment. During 25-G pars plana vit-rectomy, a large macular tear was observed. Because this finding was not expected, autologous retinal graft was the only possible surgical option to close this macular tear. A retinal graft was taken from the periphery and spread over the macula. At the post-operative period, the retinal graft was in place and integrated with the tear. An autologous retinal graft may be an effective surgical option in the presence of macular tear.
