Giant Retinal Pigment Epithelium Tear Resulting in Neurosensory Retinal Detachment: An Atypical Case.

RPE tears are common; however, concomitant neurosensory RD is rare. A thorough workup to determine treatable causative factors is necessary; in the event of idiopathic diagnosis, close follow-up is necessary to determine the need for surgery. Pars plana vitrectomy, external drainage of subretinal fluid, endolaser, and 5000-centistoke silicone oil placement were successful in this patient.
