It is not possible to determine the anatomic success rate of MH surgery in this study, but 4.2% of eyes underwent further MH surgery.
… not all patients with failed surgery will elect to undergo reoperation, and this proportion is likely to be greater than the approximately 6%

How can it happen that we still
have so many failures?

Surgical Reasons for failure in Macular Hole
The ILM is a thin basement membrane in the
pit of the fovea which gradually becomes a
thick basement membrane in the parafovea.
Topographic Variations in the Rabbit and Primate Internal Limiting Membrane Brian
Marsumoro, Janer C. Blanks, and Stephen J. Ryan Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci 25:71-82,
1984.
Traction during the peeling could induce the
ILM to tear off at the transitional site between
areas of different thickness leaving a rigid ring

Tamponade We need a tamponade …
Surgical Reasons for failure in Macular Hole
Tamponade
bubbles keep
dry the edges
of the hole
provides a compartment and
smooth surface for the glial
proliferation which will seal it

Failed Tamponade Holes can be closed in 93% after two
days of face-down positioning

Drop of vitreous
Vitreous body is not uniform and compact
but contains lacunae and cisterns
Surgical Reasons for failure in Macular Hole
During vitrectomy we remove all the visible or the
stained cortical vitreous (collagen)
Surgical Reasons for failure in Macular Hole
… but there is an invisible liquid component
(hyaluronic acid - HA) which is delivered from the
lacunae and collects at the posterior pole
Surgical Reasons for failure in Macular Hole
At the end of fluid\air exchange
HA appears at the posterior pole
Surgical Reasons for failure in Macular Hole
and collects into the macular hole

Surgical Reasons for failure in Macular Hole
This drop of gel left could become an obstacle to
glial migration and closure of the hole Schubert HD et al . Macular holes: migratory gaps and vitreous as obstacles to glial closure
Graefes Arch Clin Exp Ophthalmol 1997;235: 523–529
Hyaluronic Acid (HA) has inhibitory
effect and realizes with a
viscoseparation an obstacle for the
migration of glial cells
DROP OF VITREOUS

But HA dissolves in water …
it disappears!
if we search it one week later …
