    Abstract:
    A central retinal detachment caused by coloboma of the optic nerve head in one eye of a 34-year-old Caucasian male was treated successfully by pars-plana vitrectomy, endodiathermy of the hole situated at the periphery of the optic nerve head, drainage of the subretinal fluid and injection of silicone oil into the vitreous cavity. After removal of the silicone oil, the retina was still attached and the retinal function was unchanged. The clinical course is described.
