A middle-aged man presented with exudative retinal detachment in the left eye. He was previously diagnosed as a case of large pigment epithelial detachment in the same eye, for which he was asked to follow-up closely, citing the risk of an retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) rip. Multimodal imaging confirmed the presence of a large RPE rip with exudative retinal detachment. He is a known retrovirus patient on anti-retroviral therapy with stable CD4 counts. He was diagnosed as a possible case of bullous variant of central serous chorioretinopathy and underwent external subretinal fluid drainage. We highlight the multimodal imaging findings of RPE rip with exudative retinal detachment and its impact on the patients visual acuity.

Purpose: This work aimed to identify and analyze the most frequently cited articles in retinal detachment (RD). Methods: Institute for Scientific Information’s Web of Science index (Thomas Scientific) was used to identify the top 100 most cited articles on RD between 1900 and 2019. Data from the top 100 most cited articles that met inclusion criteria were analyzed based on title, citation frequency, authorship, institution, journal, year of publication, and country of origin. Results: The top 100 articles in RD were cited 88 to 480 times. Steven K. Fisher was the most cited individual, with the University of California system being the most cited organization. Sixty-four percent of the top 100 articles originated from the United States and were published in the American Journal of Ophthalmology, Ophthalmology, and Archives of Ophthalmology at frequencies of 36%, 24%, and 11%, respectively. The top funding agencies included the US Department of Health and Human Services, the National Institutes of Health, and the National Eye Institute at 29%, 28%, and 27%, respectively. The top-cited article, which assessed the role of the retinal pigment epithelium by histologic and electron microscopic analysis of RDs in eyes of owl monkeys, was by Machemer and Laqua in the American Journal of Ophthalmology. Conclusions: This bibliometric analysis provides researchers and clinicians with a detailed overview of the most cited manuscripts in RD. Such analyses may guide researchers and funding agencies on important research areas in the field.
