Confusion may occur between rhegmatogenous retinoschisis and retinal detachment due totumors.
The retinoschisis manifests itself in different forms according to clinical, pathogenetic and hereditary factors. They are senile and juvenile types. The latter can be further classified into, two different varieties.
The most important tumor related with retinal detachment is the malignant melanoma of the choroid. However, the exophytic retinoblastoma in infants and young children, and metastatic carcinomas in senile patients also should be kept in mind. Various helpful methods in differential diagnosis between rhagmatogenous retinal detachment, retinoschisis and retinal detachment due to tumors are discussed.
