title: [Reoperations after the treatment of retinal detachment].
abstract: Presented is an analysis of the clinical material comprising 100 patients in whom in the period of 1980-1989 one performed reoperations of retinal detachment. It was established that the most frequent causes--as well surgical failures as recurrences--were the vitreo-retinal proliferations and the insufficient closing of the holes. Reattachment of the retina after the second operation was attained in 42 p.c. of the eyes and after the third one in additionally 7 p.c. In cases with a reattached retina a very good visual acuity for far was found in 1/4 and for near in 1/2 of operated eyes. The results obtained are encouraging enough for the performance of reoperations.
