Objective To summarize the visual outcome of patients with severe ocular trauma treated with vitreous surgery. Methods Clinical data of 188(191 eyes) with severe ocular trauma treated with vitreous surgery in a period from November 1996 to April 1998 were analysed retrospectively. Results The study included penetrating injury in 56 eyes, foreign bodies in the posterior segment in 70 eyes, blunt injury in 41 eyes , and globe rupture in 24 eyes. Main complications included endophthalmitis in 35 eyes, choroidal bleeding in 20 eyes, retinal detachment in 60 eyes, and vitreous hemorrhage in 97 eyes. Post-opera-tively, out of 188 eyes, except for 3 of patients too young to examine, visual acuity improved in 133(70.7%), including 85(45.2%) with visal acuity 0.02-1.0, 46(24.5%) remained unchanged; and 9(4.8%) had worse vision. Among 34 with no-light-perception, 12 had light-perception or over. Conclusion A majority of severe trauma eyes can be salvaged with considerable visual recovery after adequate and timely vitreous surgery. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,1999,15:4-6)
Objective To probe the clinical feature and complications of extraction of silicon oil after operation of simple rhegmatogenous retinal detachment in child patients. Methods The clinical materials of 22 patients (22 eyes) of child patients (5~14 years old) and 11 cases (11 eyes) of adult patients with simple rhegmatogenous retinal detachment undergone surgical treatment and subsequent retraction of silicon oil tampon, were reviewed and analyzed retrospectively. The reasons of extraction silicon tampon, ocular complications of intrao cular silicon tamponade and the changes of visual acuity pre- and post-extraction of silicon tamponade in above 2 groups were explored. Results The main reason for the extraction and complications of silicon oil tamponade were similar in both groups. The rate of occurrence of the complications in either group rose as time went on . There was no significant difference in change of visual acuity between two groups after the extraction of silicon oil tampon. Conclusion The responses to silicon oil after the operation for simple rhegmatogenous retinal detachment is quite similar in either children or adult patients,and there is no obvious difference between child and adult patients in the results of silicon oil extraction.

Purpose To evaluate the safety and efficacy of draining subretinal fluid with transchoroidal probing by using the traditional needling and diode endolaser probing. Methods The investigation included 70 consecutive patients(74 eyes) with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment undergoing scleral buckling surgery.Seventy cases were randomly divided into 2 groups,group A 34 cases(36 eyes)with the needle drainage procedure and group B 36 cases(38 eyes) with the diode probe respectively.The safety and efficacy were compared in between the 2 groups. Results No operative failure was found in these 2 groups.In group A,subretinal hemorrhage occurred in 3 eyes,and retinal incarceration,retinal preforation in one eye. No significant complication occurred in group B. Conclusion Diode laser drainage has the advantage in that it may reduce the incidence of operative complication with drainage.This technique might be used in any case requiring drainage of subretinal fluid especially of rhegmat ogenous retinal detachment in cases of shallow retinal detachment.

Objective To evaluate the curative effects of vitreoctomy or simple scleral buckling on retinal multiple-tear detachment associated with tracted anterior flap. Methods The clinical data of 89 eyes in 89 patients with retinal multiple-tear detachment associated with tracted anterior flap diagnosed in Jan, 1999-Jan, 2002 were retrospectively analyzed. In the 89 patients, 41 had undergone vitreoctomy and 48 had undergone scleral buckling without vitrectomy. In the duration of 2- to 36-month follow-up with the mean of (11.02±7.90) months, visual acuity, retinal reattached rate and postoperative complication were examined and the results in the 2 groups were compared. Results In 41 eyes underwent vitreocotmy, successful reattachment was found in 38 (92.7% ); visual acuity increased in 33 (80.5%), didn′t change in 6 (14.6%), and decreased in 2 (4.9%); leakage of flocculent membrane in anterior chamber occured was found in 2 (4.9%), complicated cataract in 3 (7.3%),and severe proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) in 3 (7.3%). In 48 eyes underwent scleral buckling, 41 (85.4%) had success reattachment; visual acuity increased in 36 (75.0%), didn′t change in 4 (8.3%), and decreased in 8 (16.7%); leakage of flocculent membrane in anterior chamber was found in 6 (12.5%), complicated cataract in 9 (18.8 %), and severe PVR in 8 (16.7%). Conclusion There isn′t any difference of the success rate of the surgery between vitrectomy and scleral buckling for retinal multiple-tear detachment associated with tracted anterior flap.The better visual acuity and less complications are found in the vitrectomy gro up than those in the scleral buckling group.

Seventen eyeswith complicated retinal detachment were repaired with vitrectomy,retinotomy,retinectomy or retinal suture combined with gas/fluid exchange,scleral buckle and cryotherapy.These cases include giant retinal tear with inverted retinal flap(6 eyes),severe traumatic retinal detachment(4 eyes),proliferative diabetic retinopathy(2 eyes),recurrent retinal detachmeng(3 eyes)and anterior proliferative vitreoretinopathy(2 eyes).The duration of follow up in 16 eyes was from 3 to 42 months.The retinal reattachment was in 10 eyes(62.5%),and visual acuity better than0.05 in 8 eyes(50.0%).Four eyes(25.0%)resulted in hypotony. （Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,1996,12:7-9）
Objective To analyze the clinical risk factors of the occurrence of severe proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) after scleral reattachment surgery. Methods A total of 4031 eyes of 4031 consecutive patients with reghmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) and PVR (grade C1 or less), on whom the scleral buckling was performed, were retrospectively studied. Twenty-two clinical charac teristics of the patients (including the ocular tension, condition of lens and vitreous, characte ristics of retinal detachment, whether or not with choroidal detachment, et al) were recorded.In 4031 patients, 2660 were followed up for more than 3 months, and 72 (in PVR group) of the 2660 patients underwent the second surgery (vitre oretinal surgery) because of the occurrence of postoperative seve re PVR; in the other 2588 patients, 72 (72 eyes) with retinal reattachment for more than 3 months were selected randomly as the control. The data were analyzed in SPSS (10.0) software. Results Logistic regression analysis revealed that the significant risk factors for PVR were incomplete posterior vitreous detachment ( P＜0.001), intraocular pressure lt;7 mm Hg（1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa, P＜0.002）, and large retinal tear (gt;2 DD,P＜0.005). Conclusion Incomplete posterior vitreous detachment, intraocular pressure lt;7 mm Hg and large retinal tear of the patient with RRD may be the major risk factors for PVR.
