[Vitrectomy in treatment of retinal detachment with proliferative vitreoretinopathy].
The authors presented their experiences concerning the treatment of 26 eyes (in 25 patients) with retinal detachment complicated by PVR in which pars plana vitrectomy and silicone oil tamponade were applied. The patients have been previously operated with traditional methods however without success. Positive results, it is retinal attachment completely or in the superior and central part of the fundus with residual detachment inferiorly were achieved in 19 eyes (73%). An useful visual acuity (> 1/50) was achieved in 12 eyes and in 7 (27%) it was better than 5/50. Our results confirmed that this method (pars plana vitrectomy with silicone oil tamponade) is a method of choice in complicated retinal detachment, in which traditional methods failed.
