ObjectiveTo evaluate the incidence of retinal re-detachment and possible risk factors after removal of silicone oil. MethodsThe clinical data of 821 patients (858 eyes) who underwent removal of silicone oil in General Hospital of PLA during 2008-2012 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients included 518 males and 303 females. The age was ranged from 1 to 79 years old, with an average of 44.03 years. All patients underwent removal of silicone oil after vitrectomy combined with silicone oil tamponade (the tamponade period was ranged from 40 days to 13 years, with an average of 6.82 months). The incidence, time and causes of retinal re-detachment were analyzed. ResultsRetinal re-detachment occurred in 43 patients (44 eyes, 5.13%). Among these retinal re-detachment in 44 eyes, 23 eyes (52.27%) occurred in 1 week, 13 eyes (29.55%) in 1-4 weeks, 4 eyes (9.08%) in 4-8 weeks, 2 eyes (4.55%) in 8-12 weeks, and 2 eyes (4.55%) more than 12 weeks after silicone oil removal. Possible reasons of retinal re-detachment included activated original retinal holes (7 eyes), residual peripheral vitreous (3 eyes), traction of epiretinal proliferative membrane (18 eyes), new retinal hole (9 eyes), non-closure of original retinal holes (5 eyes) and traction of retinal incarceration in the scleral incision (2 eyes). ConclusionsThe incidence of retinal re-detachment after silicone oil removal is 5.13%. The incidence reduced gradually with the extension of time after removal silicone oil.
Objective To invesligate the treatment of retinal de tachment(RD) after silicone oil tamponades(SOT)． Methods The records of a consecutive series of 32 eyes with redetachment of retina after SOT surgery between 1998 to 2000 were reviewed retrospectively． The surgical techniques used for these cases included remove of silicon oil,peeling of preretinal membrane, retinotomy, endolaser photocoagutation, secondary vitrectomy and C3 F8 tamponades． Results In 28 of 32 eyes the retina was reattached (87．6%)． The postoperative visual acuity was improved in 12 eyes, redused in 4 eyes and remained no change in 16 eyes． The postop erative complications in 6 eyes included secondary glaucoma(3 eyes), hypotony (1 eye) and hyphema (2 eyes)． Conclusion The techniques of preretinal membrane peeling, retinotomy, endophotocoagulation and C3 F8 tamponades can be effectively used in combination to treat the redetachment of retina after the silicone oil tamponades surgery． (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,2001,17:214-215)
Objective To observe the clinical characteristics and therapeutic effect of aphakic retinal detachment (ARD) eyes and pseudophakic retinal detachment (PPRD) eyes.Methods The clinical data of 805 patients,including 321 ARD and 484 PPRD eyes were retrospectively analyzed.The patientsprime;visiual acuity, refraction, intraocular pressure were examined, and the patients also underwent slit lamp microscopy and direct and (or) indirect ophthalmoscopy.The preoperative bestcorrected visual acuity (BCVA) was between light perception (LP) and 0.6.Mainly according to the PVR grade and retinal holes position to take the scleral buckling or vitrectomy combined with scleral buckling. The 805 eyes were divided into 1995-1999 group (243 eyes) and 20002007 group (562 eyes) according to operative time.The follow-up ranged from 3 to 25 months, with an average of 12.3 months.The success standard of surgery was set as anatomic retinal reattachment and the last follow-up time was considered as the judgment time.The surgical complications were recorded at each followup time points. The composition of PPRD,the visual acuity,ocular lesions, surgical methods and results before operation and visual acuity after operation in two groups were analyzed and compared by MantelHaenszel chisquare test. Results The average interval from lens extraction to RD occurrence was 15.4 months in PPRD eyes and 39.1 months in ARD eyes. The final total anatomic success rate was 95.9%, and was 93.5% in the scleral buckle eyes and 97.2% in vitrectomy eyes.The BCVA was better than 0.3 after operation only in 11.9% of the 805 patiens,and the visual acuity increased more than 2 lines in 67.3%. Compared with the ARD eyes,early onset, high proportion of total posterior vitreous detachment,severe PVR,wide RD range,low detection rate of retinal hole and low antomic success rate were found in PPRD eyes.Compared with the 1995-1999 group,the proportion of vitreous surgery,anatomic success rate and better visual acuity were found in 2000-2007 group.Conclusions The ocular lesions of ARD and PPRD is more complicated,the therapeutic effect are improving in recent years.
