Methods: One hundred seventy-five eyes with MTM from 157 patients who were treated with PSC or PPV and had at least 6 months of follow-up were retrospectively analyzed. Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was used to assess visual outcomes. Anatomical outcomes were assessed using optical coherence tomography. Results: The PPV and PSC groups included 87 and 88 eyes, respectively. Eyes in the PPV group were presented with higher presence of epiretinal membrane (93.1% vs. 69.3%, p &lt; 0.001), larger macular hole (MH) diameter (128.0 \u03bcm vs. 0 \u03bcm, p = 0.01), and more severe pattern of MH (e.g., full thickness MH 18.4% vs. 10.2%, p &lt; 0.001), whereas they achieved better anatomical outcomes (MH recovery rate: 89.9% vs. 50.0%, p &lt; 0.001; incidence of complete or essential recovery: 82.8% vs. 61.4%, p &lt; 0.001; the median time to recovery: 90 days vs. 307 days, p &lt; 0.001). Additionally, better recovery of retinal profile in PPV group tended to be more significant in eyes with axial length (AL) \u226430 mm. Conversely, eyes in the PSC group were presented with more advanced MTM staging system (e.g., stage 4 13.6% vs. 4.6%, p = 0.003) and larger highest cavity of maculoschisis or macular detachment (389.3 \u00b1 229.8 \u03bcm vs. 322.2 \u00b1 216.4 \u03bcm, p = 0.048), resulting in significant reduction in AL postoperatively (29.9 \u00b1 1.6 mm before surgery vs. 28.2 \u00b1 1.6 mm at last follow-up, p &lt; 0.001). In multivariate linear regression analysis, type of operation did not have a significant impact on BCVA at last follow-up or on change in BCVA after surgery. Conclusion: PPV was typically performed for eyes with severer vitreoretinal interface abnormalities and achieved better outcomes, particularly in eyes with AL \u226430 mm. PSC was performed for eyes with advanced MTM staging system, providing better axial stabilization despite slower anatomical improvement. Both approaches improved visual acuity to a similar extent, irrespective of the surgical technique employed.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000548499","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,10]],"date-time":"2025-12-10T09:17:15Z","timestamp":1765358235000},"page":"485-495","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Indications
