[Indications and results of lens removal using the pars plana approach].
Pars plana lensectomy has both advantages and disadvantages. Therefore, a differentiated indication is required. This procedure can be regarded as the method of choice in traumatic cataracts when there is simultaneously endothelial damage of the cornea and a subluxated lens (following injury with contusion or perforation). Relative indications are for subluxated lenses without endothelial damage, for cataracts with endothelial but not vitreous problems, for cataracts with chronic uveitis, and for undilatable pupils. Anatomical and functional results - as far as they could be determined in the patients treated by the present authors - are excellent.
