[Late macular pseudo-hole after surgical peeling of a premacular membrane].

We present three clinical cases showing a pseudo macular hole that developed late after an uneventful surgical removal of an epiretinal membrane. The pseudo macular hole developed 3 to 19 months postoperatively. The macular changes seen in all cases showed stricking differences when compared with pseudo macular holes associated with epiretinal membranes. A hypothesis is suggested for the pathogenesis.
