title: [Suprachoroidal Hydrogel Buckle - a New Minimal-Invasive Technique in Treatment of Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment].
abstract: The suprachoroidal hydrogel buckle is a new, simple and safe procedure for the treatment of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment. This technique combines the advantages of modern vitrectomy and classic buckling surgery. Placing the suprachoroidal buckle is possible as a stand-alone procedure or in addition to vitrectomy. The cross-linked hyaluronic acid seems to be the ideal agent for the suprachoroidal buckle with a buckling effect over 8 weeks. We need further investigations with long-term results.
