Abstract Introduction: To compare the results and complication rates of a 25-gauge pars plana vitrectomy (25g PPV) with gas tamponade for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) between experienced and inexperienced surgeons.Materials and Methods: This is a retrospective comparative consecutive case series study of patients with uncomplicated RRD treated with 25g PPV with gas tamponade. Patients were divided into 2 groups: In Group 1 (ESG) the procedure was performed by an experienced vitreoretinal surgeon and in Group 2 (ISG) the procedure was performed by 2 inexperienced surgeons. Anatomical and functional results and complication rates were compared between the two groups.Results: 216 eyes were included in the study. In the ESG (106 eyes), the single operation success rate was 94.3%, and the final success rate was 100%. The mean best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) improved from 0.38 decimal to 0.73 decimal. In the ISG (110 eyes), the single operation success rate was 93.6%, and the final success rate was 100.0%. The mean BCVA improved from 0.33 decimal to 0.74 decimal. The differences between groups were not statistically significant. There was no difference in complication rates between groups.Conclusions: A 25g PPV with gas tamponade for treatment of RRD yields excellent anatomical results and improvement in BCVA. With good technique and use of modern vitrectomy machines and instruments, even inexperienced surgeons can achieve high single operation success rate, suggesting a short learning curve. The complication rate is comparable between experienced and inexperienced surgeons.

Pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) is a surgical approach mainly chosen for complex rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) repair with highly variable functional results. The aim of this analysis was to evaluate the impact of preoperative factors and postoperative optical coherence tomography (OCT) macular findings on the functional outcome of patients undergoing primary PPV for RRD. A retrospective analysis was performed on 88 eyes of 88 patients with complex RRD managed by PPV. A swept source OCT was used to obtain images at the postoperative visit at least 6 months after PPV. Hierarchical linear regression model was used to evaluate the influence of preoperative factors related to patient, ocular clinical and postoperative OCT macular findings on functional outcomes of PPV for RRD. Duration of symptoms (p = 0.031) and discontinuity of the ellipsoid zone (EZ) on OCT (p = 0.024) showed statistically significant negative correlation, while preoperative best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA; p < 0.001) showed statistically significant positive correlation to postoperative BCVA. Preoperative BCVA and duration of symptoms can be used as prognostic factors for visual outcome in patients undergoing PPV for RRD. Discontinuity of the EZ was the only postoperative OCT variable related to worse postoperative visual outcome.

The present report is an extension of the study, in which on a large clinical material, the ratio of procedures used at this time for retinal detachment was shown, and the frequency of relapses after extrascleral and endovitreal surgeries was analyzed. The purpose of the study is to determine the terms of relapse occurrence, and to estimate visual function after multiple endovitreal procedures. Materials and methods. The study was carried out in the Ophthalmological Center of the City Hospital No. 2 of St. Petersburg. The data of 116 case histories of 23 patients (28 eyes) repeatedly admitted to the department of vitreoretinal surgery of the center and operated (2 to 7 times) for recurrent rhematogenous retinal detachment in 2015-2016 were analyzed. Results. Multistage endovitreal surgery in patients with recurrent retinal detachment in most cases (78.6%) leads to significant decrease of visual functions; in incomplete retinal adherence in the lower segments after extrascleral surgery, additional scleral buckling or barrier laser retinal photocoagulation can be used.

Background: Optical coherence tomography (OCT) findings are helpful in assessing the cause of reduced visual acuity (VA) after successful rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) surgery. Objective: To study anatomical and functional results after successful RRD surgery with gas-air mixture or silicone oil (SO) tamponade using OCT. Materials and methods. 70 patients were divided into 2 groups: group I (n = 34) - gas-air mixture tamponade; group II (n = 36) - SO tamponade. At baseline, were no significant differences by gender, age and VA between the groups. Follow-up was 12 months after the surgery. OCT was performed with the Cirrus HD-OCT 4000, CARL ZEISS MEDITEC, USA. Results: VA increased significantly in both groups. Regression analysis showed lower VA in group II and statistically significant association between VA and IS/OS and ELM defects. Сonclusions. There is a strong association of disruption of the IS/OS and ELM with reduced vision after successful retinal detachment surgery. Gas-air mixture tamponade showed some benefits in comparison with SO tamponade.

New Surgical Technique

Surgical treatment of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment with an inferior break remains a challenge for ophthalmic surgeons. When using silicone tamponade, complications can develop, such as increased intraocular pressure and emulsification of silicone. In recent years, tamponade of the vitreous cavity with a gas-air mixture has been actively used, however, not all patients can observe the forced position face down, and the tamponade itself is not long-term. Purpose. The authors proposed a method for the treatment of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment with an inferior break using a combined tamponade with a gas-air mixture and viscoelastic based on sodium hyaluronate. Material and methods. A clinical observation of a patient successfully operated on with the use of the specified combined tamponade is presented. A detailed description of a new surgical technique is presented, which allows achieving a higher anatomical and functional results. Conclusion. To confirm the effectiveness and safety of the proposed method, further studies on a group of patients are needed.

Abstract Background: To investigate the surgical results and morphologic characteristics of pediatric traumatic macular hole with total rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.Case presentation: The 4-year-old-male patient underwent scleral buckling surgery combined with vitrectomy with the inverted ILM flap technique and silicon oil tamponade for five months. Complete ophthalmic examination was performed preoperatively and 7 days, 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months after surgery. Successful retinal reattachment was achieved and the macular hole was successfully closed. Visual acuity improved from Hand Motion at the initial visit to 20/80 (0.6 LogMAR) postoperatively.Conclusions: Scleral buckling surgery and vitrectomy with the inverted ILM flap technique appeared to give effective anatomical and functional results in this case.

Phakic Eyes

Scleral buckling represents a valuable treatment option for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment repair. The surgery is based on two main principles: the closure of retinal breaks and the creation of a long-lasting chorioretinal adhesion. Buckles are placed onto the sclera with the purpose of sealing retinal breaks. Cryopexy is usually performed to ensure a long-lasting chorioretinal adhesion. Clinical outcomes of scleral buckling have been shown to be more favorable in phakic eyes with uncomplicated or medium complexity retinal detachment, yielding better anatomical and functional results compared with vitrectomy. Several complications have been described following scleral buckling surgery, some of which are sight-threatening. Expertise in indirect ophthalmoscopy is required to perform this type of surgery. A great experience is necessary to prevent complications and to deal with them. The use of scleral buckling surgery has declined over the years due to increasing interest in vitrectomy. Lack of confidence in indirect ophthalmoscopy and difficulties in teaching this surgery have contributed to limiting its diffusion among young ophthalmologists. The aim of this review is to provide a comprehensive guide on technical and clinical aspects of scleral buckling, focusing also on complications and their management.
