  • Vitreous Hemorrhage

    Nov 9 2012 by Norman Byer

    This 60-year-old man suddenly developed a vitreous hemorrhage from this acute horseshoe tear 3½ years following cataract extraction when a posterior vitreous detachment occurred. The white nubbin identifies this lesion as a preexisting cystic retinal tuft. The pigment spot beneath the flap is evidence of secondary trophic changes in the pigment epithelium. Note the irregular shape of the flap with the narrow tip and broad base. This was caused by vitreous traction which was exerted at two separate points on the retina and which tore the retina at each place.

    Condition/keywords: acute posterior vitreous detachment, irregularly shaped flap, trophic pigmented changes, vitreous hemorrhage, vitreous traction, white retinal tuft

  • Bergmeister's Papilla

    Sep 29 2020 by Dhaivat Shah

    Bergmeister's papilla is a small tuft of glial tissue which arises from the center of the optic disc, and represents a remnant of the fetal hyaloid artery. The hyaloid artery provides nutrition to the lens during development, and runs forward to the lens from the optic disc. At birth the hyaloid artery regresses, and is normally completely regressed by the time of birth. Bergmeister's papilla is frequently observed as an incidental clinical finding if this artery has an incomplete regression posteriorly. However, in the severe forms it can be associated with cataracts, persistence of the primitive vitreous, microphthalmia, vitreous hemorrhages and sometimes tractional retinal detachment, due to contraction of the residual fibro vascular tissue. Therefore, careful monitoring of vitreous thickening in the peripapillary areas, both by examining the ocular fundus, and especially by SD-OCT, is of considerable importance. Here we have one such of a 30 year old young male who came in for a routine checkup, in whom we noted a Bergmeister’s papilla. Due to its benign nature, patient was reassured and was asked to follow up yearly.

    Condition/keywords: Bergmeister's Papillae
