Popis: Abstract Background To investigate the clinical characteristics of retinal honeycomb appearance in a large cohort of patients with X-linked retinoschisis (XLRS) and to determine whether it is associated with complications like retinal detachment (RD) and vitreous hemorrhage (VH). Methods A retrospective observational case series. A chart review of medical records, wide-field fundus imaging, and optical coherence tomography (OCT) was performed on 78 patients (153 eyes) diagnosed with XLRS at Beijing Tongren eye center between Dec 2017 and Feb 2022. The chi-square test or Fisher exact test was performed on the 2 × 2 cross-tabulations of honeycomb appearance and other peripheral retinal findings and complications. Results Thirty-eight patients (48.7%), and 60 eyes (39.2%) had a honeycomb appearance of different areas on the fundus. The supratemporal quadrant was the most commonly affected (45 eyes, 75.0%), followed by the infratemporal (23 eyes, 38.3%), the infranasal (10 eyes,16.7%), and supranasal (9 eyes,15.0%). The appearance was significantly associated with peripheral retinoschisis, inner retinal layer break, outer retinal layer break, RD, and rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) (p
