Treatment Outcome of Macular Hole Associated with Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment.
Macular holes are an infrequent association with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, increasing the complexity of surgery and affecting outcome. ⋯ Single-surgery retinal reattachment rate and macular hole closure using any of the techniques is high, and none showed superiority.

Deep-lobe tumors have been shown to possess a significantly thicker capsule with less tumor penetration compared to superficial tumors. Thus, more conservative surgical approaches, rather than aggressive methods, have been proposed for treating benign deep-lobe tumors of the parotid gland. ⋯ SDLP may facilitate the safe surgical removal of benign lesions located in the deep lobe of the parotid gland, with oncological safety, reduced complication rates, and improved cosmetic outcomes.
