title="Spontaneous delayed closure of macular hole secondary to rhegmatogenous retinal detachment",
abstract="We present a case of a full thickness macular hole secondary to a complete retinal detachment in which a spontaneous delayed closure was observed in spectral domain optical coherence tomography six months after pars plana vitrectomy with silicone oil tamponade and without internal limiting membrane peeling.  The authors hypothesize that prolonged silicone oil tamponade and silicone oil emulsification induce inflammatory response within the retina, which enables initiating a delayed healing process of a full thickness macular hole, which did not close in short time after the surgery.",
