    Description
    This B-mode longitudinal ultrasound scan reveals a giant retinal tear, demonstrating a circumferential retinal flap with rolled edges extending over M-X to M-I. The vitreous shows diffuse hemorrhage and anterior-posterior traction strands inserting at the tear margins. The remaining retina appears attached without subretinal fluid.
