[Micro-vitreoretinal surgery and silicone oil for treatment of perforating injuries with retinal detachments].
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the therapeutic value and effects of micro-vitreoretinal surgery (M-VRS), retinotomy and silicone oil (SiO) for perforating injuries with retinal detachment (PIRD).


METHODS
64 cases of PIRD were treated with M-VRS, retinotomies and SiO.


RESULTS
The retina was totally reattached in 58 cases or a rate of 90.6%, which dropped to 73.5% in 3-15 months postoperatively. Visual acuity of 64.7% was counting fingers or better, and 17.6% > or = 0.05.


CONCLUSIONS
This method can cure PIRD that were not cured with routine M-VRS, and 1/6 cases were out of blindness.
