On examination, he was found to have a macula-off RD associated with superior chorioretinal coloboma. He underwent 23-gauge pars plana vitrectomy with membrane peel, endolaser, and perfluoropropane (14%) gas tamponade. Three months after his surgery, his best-corrected visual acuity in his right eye was 20/250 distance and 20/80 near, and his retina remained attached.Conclusions: This case report describes surgical management of a superior chorioretinal coloboma-associated RD.
