Abstract Purpose:To report a case of lamellar hole-associated epiretinal proliferation(LHEP)for which an embedding technique operation was performed.

Case:A 76-year-old woman visited our hospital because of decreasing right visual acuity. From 8 years before the first visit, a lamellar macular hole in the right eye had been followed up. At the first visit, the best corrected visual acuity(BCVA)in the right eye was(0.7). Optical coherence tomography(OCT)showed a lamellar macular hole with epiretinal proliferation(EP)in the right eye. The preoperative central retinal thickness(CRT)was 183 μm, and the ellipsoid zone(EZ)was discontinuous. We performed 27 G vitrectomy and cataract surgery for the lamellar macular hole with EP and cataract. A notable level of the EP around the lamellar hole was trimmed, and the EP was embedded into the lamellar macular hole. The day after surgery, the embedded EP stayed inside the lamellar macular hole, according to the OCT analysis. One month and 5 months after surgery, the CRT was 548 μm and 463 μm, respectively. At 12 months after surgery, the CRT reduced to 371 μm. The discontinuation of the EZ was gradually ameliorated. The BCVA in the right eye improved to(1.2)at 12 months after the surgery.

Conclusion:Good postoperative visual acuity was observed after the embedding technique for lamellar macular hole with EP was performed, despite the temporary increase in the CRT after the surgery.
