Summary

The aim of this study is to report outcomes of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) in pediatric retinal detachment (RD) accompanied with proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) as well as complications and factors influencing the final anatomical and functional results.

This is retrospective consecutive case series of 14 eyes treated with primary PPV for RD repair. Average postoperative follow-up period is 34 months.

Conditions

  • Pediatric Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment

Interventions

PROCEDURE

vitrectomy

Complete 23G PPV with scleral indentation was performed using Constellation system. Posterior vitreous detachment was induced very carefully by the cutter probe using aspiration. The peripheral vitreous was removed in all eyes with 360° of the vitreous base shaved under scleral indentation. After complete retinal attachment was achieved, endolaser photocoagulation was applied around the retinal break(s) as three to four rows of burns or/and cryopexy under HPFCL. Then a HPFCL/air/5000cst silicone oil exchange was performed. In one eye only HPFCL/air exchange was performed. Sclerotomies were sutured when needed with Vicryl 8.0 sutures.
