LEYVA ALMARALES, Raúl Reinaldo et al. Tear of the idiopathic peripheral retinal pigmentary epithelium. Rev Cubana Oftalmol [online]. 2011, vol.24, n.1, pp. 177-182. ISSN 0864-2176.

The tears of the retina pigmentary epithelium are entities associated with a macular degeneration related to age in which occur such tears. Although it may to have multiple causes, also may be idiopathic and its more frequent location is at level of retinal posterior pole. Authors present a case of peripheral retinal pigmentary epithelium tear diagnosed in a patient without pathology or retinal posterior pole, which occurred in a spontaneous way with any cause; the fundus oculi color photos were taken, auto-fluorescence and indocyanine green confirmed diagnosis. Due to its infrequent character authors decide to present this above mentioned case and of idiopathic cause.
