Abstract

Exudative retinal detachment is one of the common findings of nanophthalmos. Thickened and abnormal sclera causes funduscopic findings of the nanophthalmos. Different treatment modalities were described for exudative retinal detachment which was refractory to medical therapy and to conventional retinal reattachment procedures. Here we report visual and anatomical outcomes after four quadrant deep sclerectomy surgery for the treatment of exudative retinal detachment secondary to nanophthalmos in two patients.

Özet

Eksudatif retina dekolmanı nanoftalmusta sık görülen bulgulardan biridir. Patogenezinde anormal derecede kalın, yapısal farklılıklar gösteren skleranın rol oynadığı düşünülmektedir. Medikal tedaviye ve konvansiyonel cerrahiye yanıt vermeyen eksudatif retina dekolmanının tedavisinde farklı yaklaşımlar söz konusudur. Bu çalışmada, nanoftalmusa sekonder gelişen eksudatif retina dekolmanı nedeniyle dört kadran derin sklerektomi uygulanmış iki olgu sunulmaktadır.
