[Modification of an inflatable balloon catheter for the treatment of retinal detachment].
The technique of extrascleral ballooning used in surgery for detachment of the retina is widely used in clinical practice. H. Lincoff and I. Kreissig's balloon catheter, widely used abroad since 1979, is described, and reasons why it cannot be used in this country are stated. The authors suggest their own modification of distensible balloon catheter for temporary scleral impression; the technique of making the device and of surgery is described in detail.
