Purpose. To evaluate the surgical outcome of scleral buckling (SB) in rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) patients associated with pars planitis.Methods. Retrospective review of RRD patients (32 eyes of pars planitis RRD and 180 eyes of primary RRD) who underwent SB. We compared primary and final anatomical success rates and visual outcomes between two groups.Results. Primary and final anatomical success were achieved in 25 (78.1%) and 31 (96.8%) eyes in the pars planitis RRD group and in 167 eyes (92.7%) and 176 eyes (97.7%) in primary RRD group, respectively. Both groups showed significant visual improvement (p<0.001) and there were no significant differences in final visual acuity. Pars planitis RRD group was associated with higher rate of postoperative proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) development (12.5% versus 2.8%,p=0.031). Pars planitis and high myopia were significant preoperative risk factors and pseudophakia was borderline risk for primary anatomical failure after adjusting for various clinical factors.Conclusions. Pars planitis associated RRD showed inferior primary anatomical outcome after SB due to postoperative PVR development. However, final anatomical and visual outcomes were favorable. RRD cases associated with pars planitis, high myopia, and pseudophakia might benefit from different surgical approaches, such as combined vitrectomy and SB.

Introduction. Scleral buckle surgery retains a special place in treatment of retinal detachment despite development of new and advanced vitreoretinal surgical techniques. The outcome of any retinal detachment surgery depends on correct selection of patient, type and nature of detachment, and the expertise. This study aims to evaluate various other parameters that determine the outcome of scleral buckle surgery. Method. Records of 55 patients with primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment treated with scleral buckling over a duration of 18 months that had a minimum of 3-month follow-up were retrospectively reviewed. Preoperative and postoperative characteristics were recorded. Parameters that were evaluated to determine the outcome were best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), anatomical success, and complications. Results. A total of 51 eyes of 50 patients that met the inclusion criteria were included. Mean age was 41 ± 19.9 years (range: 9 to 83). Primary anatomical success was achieved in 80.4%. Parameters significantly associated with the anatomical outcome of surgery were status of lens, preoperative visual acuity, and extent of retinal detachment. There was a significant improvement of visual acuity postoperatively. Conclusion. Scleral buckle surgery is a highly effective surgery in uncomplicated retinal detachment cases, and single surgery success rates are better in cases with good preoperative visual acuity, partial detachment, and clear crystalline lens.

Vitrectomy Surgery

The main goal in the treatment of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) is the localization of retinal tears, removal of tractions, and closure of retinal tears. Despite the use of pneumatic retinopexy, scleral buckling, and vitrectomy as standard treatment modalities, the preference for pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) in the treatment of RRD has increased steadily in recent years. The reason for this increase is the widespread use of small-sized transconjunctival surgery, improvement of bimanual surgery, use of liquid perfluorocarbons, improved vitrectomy devices and more safe and successful removing of peripheral vitreous bases, visualization of membranes with vital dyes, safe retinopexy with use of curved laser probe even with phakic cases. Besides these, PPV and advanced surgical techniques are more needed in complicated detachments. Nevertheless, the surgeon has a specially important role in the surgical technique of choice. Although the control of the procedures can be performed much more successfully with the PPV in the case of complicated RRD patients during surgery, anatomical success rates are still not very high. In this article, the applications of advanced vitrectomy surgery in RRD are discussed in detail.

Purpose:  To study demographic characteristics and treatment outcomes of Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment in a private Vitreo-retinal setup of Lahore. Study Design:  Cross sectional Observational study. Place and Duration of Study:  Private Vitreo-retinal setup, from March 2017 to April 2019. Methods:  Total 102 patients with Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) were included. Patients with retinal detachment other than RRD were excluded. Detailed history and ocular examination was performed. Type of break, procedure adopted for RRD repair and type of endo-tamponade were also recorded. These patients had either 23 G pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) or scleral buckling (SB) procedures or combined sclera buckling with PPV. Patients were followed-up for six months. Results:  Out of 102 total RRD cases, 63.70% were males and 36.30%were females. Mean age was 47.44 ± 18.44. Macula was on in 48% and off in 52%. Phakic patients were 46.50%, pseudophakic 48.50% and 5.10% were aphakic. Position of break in RRD was superotemporal in 39.2%, inferotemporal in 30.4% and inferonasal in 2.9%. Total RD was observed in 27.5% patients. One or more breaks were identified in 82.4% patients and giant tear in 4.9%. Three ports 23 G PPV was done in 64.7%, PPV with IOL in 18.6%, scleral buckling in 10.8% and combined PPV + SB in 5.9% patients. The anatomical success rate was observed in 96.07%, 3.9% needed second surgery to get anatomical success in six months follow-up.

Purpose: To analyze the anatomical and functional outcomes of a standardized scleral buckling approach in patients with noncomplex primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD). Methods: Retrospective institutional case series of 135 eyes of 131 patients diagnosed with noncomplex primary RRD. All patients underwent scleral buckling surgery with the placement of an encircling 5 mm oval sponge at 15 ± 2 mm posteriorly from the limbus, cryopexy, subretinal fluid drainage, and air tamponade. Results: Final anatomical success at 12 months was achieved in all 135 eyes (100%). Primary anatomical surgical success was obtained in 127 out of 135 eyes (94%), while re-detachment occurred in eight out of 135 cases (6%). Primary anatomical success was significantly lower in pseudophakic eyes ( p < 0.001). At the end of the follow-up period, no vision loss was observed in any patient and both sphere and cylinder refraction shift was mild. There was a low rate of postoperative complications. Nine out of 135 eyes (6.6%) developed full thickness macular hole, whether in 24 out of 135 eyes (17.8%) epiretinal membrane development was noticed. Conclusion: A standardized scleral buckling approach for primary noncomplex RRD may be effective. The technique is reproducible, easier, and quicker to perform if compared to classic scleral buckling procedures, suggesting that it may represent a valuable surgical option. Special care is needed in the management of pseudophakic RRD due to higher risk of RRD recurrence.

With the development of pars plana vitrectomy in the 1970s and pneumatic retinopexy in the 1980s, the primacy of scleral buckling for repair of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) came under challenge. While a degree of consensus exists for certain forms of complex RRD, there remains little agreement concerning the optimal treatment of primary noncomplex RRD. This debate is further muddied by application of adjuvant procedures to supplement the primary surgical approach. This article aims to present the current evidence regarding repair of primary noncomplex RRD. A brief summary of primary surgical approaches—pneumatic retinopexy, scleral buckling, and pars plana vitrectomy—will be presented along with a short discussion on potential adjuvant procedures. The remainder of the article focuses on reported outcomes for the different treatment modalities for primary noncomplex RRD.

Aim. To investigate the anatomical success rates of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) after primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD).Methods. This retrospective study was conducted between December 2008 and October 2014 at Nagasaki University Hospital. The preoperative data recorded included the lens status, location of the retinal tear, whether a tear was visualized, presence of multiple tears, macula status, presence of peripheral lattice retinal degeneration, and best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA). The primary outcome measures were anatomical (primary and final) and functional success (visual acuity better than 6/60).Results. This study evaluated 422 eyes of 411 patients with a mean age of57.7±11.2years. The single-operation reattachment rate (primary anatomical success) was 89.8%. The final anatomical success rate was 100% after 2–6 operations (mean =3.14±1.03). Functional success rate after the primary reattachment operation was 96.7%, while it was 97.2% at the end of the follow-up. Multiple logistic regression analysis of the possible risk factors for the primary anatomical failure showed a significant relation with the 25 G instruments (P=0.002) and the presence of multiple tears (P=0.01).Conclusion. The primary anatomical success of PPV for primary uncomplicated RRD was 89.8% and the final anatomical success rate was 100%.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of maximal pneumatic retinopexy (PR) and subretinal fluid (SRF) drainage combined with scleral buckling (SB) in the treatment of complicated rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD). Methods Patients with RRD who underwent maximal PR and SRF drainage combined with SB from June 2007 to June 2012 were included in this multicenter retrospective study. The outcome measures were the primary and final operation success rates and best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA). Results In total, 159 consecutive patients were included. The mean follow-up period was 13.76 ± 1.97 months. Primary operation success was achieved in 146/159 (91.82%) eyes. After salvage management, the final reattachment rate increased to 98.11%. All eyes had improved BCVA, with 62/159 (38.99%) attaining BCVA of ≥20/40. Conclusions Maximal PR and SRF drainage combined with SB achieved satisfactory anatomical and visual recovery in relatively complicated cases of RRD. The decreased need for vitrectomy makes this surgical approach more widely available.
