Massive subretinal exudate after retinal detachment surgery. 1979

R H Wallyn

A 70-year-old woman developed massive subretinal exudation after surgical repair of a rhegmatogenous retinal detachment. Postoperative choroidal detachment suggested a choroidal source of the subretinal exudate. We believe the cause of the choroidal detachment and exudation was vortex ampulla obstruction resulting from the encircling band. The subretinal exudate underwent gradual resolution and did not influence the anatomic result of retinal reattachment.

D005122 Exudates and Transudates Exudates are fluids, CELLS, or other cellular substances that are slowly discharged from BLOOD VESSELS usually from inflamed tissues. Transudates are fluids that pass through a membrane or squeeze through tissue or into the EXTRACELLULAR SPACE of TISSUES. Transudates are thin and watery and contain few cells or PROTEINS.
