“…En la mayoría de los casos, una tomografía de coherencia óptica (OCT) muestra una forma de domo con hiperreflectividad en la superficie anterior y una sombra densa en forma de cavidad en la parte posterior. 6 sin embargo, Guerra y colaboradores 7 han descrito cambios en la retina alrededor de los márgenes del tumor desde los primeros estándares.…”

“…Several studies noted traumatic retinal pigment epitheliopathy on FAF at one month, but they also employed a one month followup interval after initial injury; Lavinsky et al have described early hypo-autofluorescence appearing as early as one week after injury. [9][10][11][12] Use of FAF imaging may also be useful in identifying peripheral retinal pathology following the blunt ocular injury. An area of hypo-autofluorescence surrounding peripheral lattice degeneration was identified as shallow retinal detachment in patient 4 (Figure 3).…”

“…9 The maturation of retinal pigment epitheliopathy is characterized by the onset of hypo-autofluorescence surrounding speckles of hyper-autofluorescence on serial imaging (Figure 2). [9][10][11] It is unclear precisely how long after injury the FAF findings of traumatic retinal pigment epitheliopathy can first be discerned.

Purpose To investigate the clinical and anatomic characteristics of soccer ball-induced posterior segment injuries in the era of modern multi-modal imaging. Methods Retrospective case series of patients with soccer ball injury and diagnostic imaging from 2007 to 2020 at a single vitreoretinal practice. Results Eight patients met inclusion criteria. Fundus photographs (FP) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) were obtained in eight patients, fundus autofluorescence (FAF) in five patients, fluorescein angiography (FA) in three patients, and en-face OCT and OCT-Angiography (OCT-A) were obtained in two patients each. FA and FAF identified traumatic pigment epitheliopathy secondary to commotio. Increased hypo-autofluorescence was associated with shallow, peripheral retinal detachment on FAF. OCT of the macula displayed outer retinal changes associated with commotio, and offered insight into the acute and subacute changes of traumatic macular hole formation. A patient displayed foveal hyper-reflectivity in the shape of an hourglass with retinal cyst at the level of the external limiting membrane (ELM) as seen on OCT and En-face OCT. A patient with commotio involving the macula lacked microvascular changes on OCT-A. Conclusion OCT, FA, and FAF imaging may aid in the work-up and management of the soccer ball-related posterior segment injuries.

“…Blunt ocular trauma manifests in various ways in the posterior segment of the eye. It causes serious sequelae such as Commotio Retinae (CR), choroidal rupture, Traumatic Pigment Epitheliopathy (TPE), Purtscher's retinopathy, macular holes, Vitreous hemorrhage, retinitis sclopetaria, retinal breaks, and retinal dialysis [1]. Spectral-Domain Optical Coherence Tomography (SD-OCT) imaging supports the idea that the primary site of injury is the photoreceptor and Retinal Pigment Epithelium (RPE) layers.…”
