Department of Ophthalmology, Taipei Veterans General Hospital, Taipei, Taiwan.
This study investigates the occurrence of multiple parafoveal retinal detachments (RDs) in myopic traction maculopathy (MTM), emphasizing the atypical extrafoveal involvement compared to central foveal detachment commonly observed. Patient 1, a 46-year-old male, exhibited MTM with retinoschisis and four small subretinal fluid (SRF) pockets inferior to the fovea, accompanied by a hyperautofluorescent vitelliform deposit. Patient 2, a 43-year-old male, reported ring-shaped dim vision in the left eye, displaying MTM with six stable SRF pockets surrounding the fovea.

DFSP exhibits a low metastatic potential and is characterized by a distinctive honeycomb-like architecture composed of uniformly arranged spindle cells that frequently show CD34 immunostaining. Common surgical approaches include wide local excision (WLE), Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS), and, in severe cases, amputation.
