RESUMO
Full-thickness macular hole is a rare complication of macular telangiectasia type 2, and its treatment is still controversial. A patient with a full-thickness macular hole secondary to macular telangiectasia type 2 underwent vitreoretinal surgery with a plasma rich in growth factors membrane in the macular hole. At the sixth month of follow-up, anatomical and functional improvements were achieved, with no adverse effects. Plasma rich in growth factors is a new option, with advantages due to its biological properties that achieves good results in terms of safety and effectiveness in the surgical treatment of macular hole.
