Abstract

To assess anatomic and functional results after surgical management of retinal detachments from inferiorly located breaks. Materials and Methods: Twenty eyes of 19 patients (8 female, 11 male) with retinal detachment due to inferiorly located retinal breaks were included in this study. Eight of the eyes without significant proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) underwent conventional surgery with encircling scleral band and local buckle, while another 8 eyes with grade C1 or worse PVR underwent pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) and intravitreal tamponade in addition to encircling scleral buckle. Four eyes that had been operated on in other centers but showed recurrence were also re-operated using PPV in our clinic. The results of our surgical intervention were evaluated in terms of anatomy and functionality. Results: Conventional retinal surgery resulted in anatomic success in 6 out of 8 eyes with a single operation. Another 2 eyes were further operated on to attach the retina. Anatomic success was achieved in 7 of 8 eyes that underwent a combined operation in the first attempt, and one other in the second attempt. In the eyes that were referred to our clinic for re-operation, anatomic success was obtained in 2 of the 4 eyes with one operation, and in other one with a further operation. No success was achieved in the fourth eye. Overall, retinas were found to be attached in 19 eyes (95%), while visual acuity improved in 14 eyes (70%) and remained the same in 6 eyes (30%) at the final examination. Conclusion: In eyes with retinal detachments with inferiorly located retinal tears, conventional surgery seems to suffice in eyes without significant PVR, while scleral buckling combined with PPV is appropriate for anatomic and surgical success in eyes with significant PVR.

Özet

Alt kadran retina yırtığının sebep olduğu retina dekol- manlarında cerrahi sonuçları değerlendirmek. Gereç ve Yöntem: Alt kadran yırtığına bağlı retina dekolmanı saptanan 8’i kadın,11’i erkek, 19 hastanın 20 gözü çalış- ma kapsamına alındı. Belirgin proliferatif vitreoretinopati (PVR) saptanmayan 8 göze konvansiyonel dekolman cer- rahisi ile sadece skleral çökertme, evre C1 ve üzeri PVR saptanan 8 göze kombine skleral çökertme ve pars plana vitrektomi (PPV) ile birlikte intravitreal endotamponad uy- gulaması yapıldı. Başka merkezlerde konvansiyonel dekol- man cerrahisi yapılan ve nüks gelişen 4 göze ise PPV ile reoperasyon uygulandı. Olgular etyolojik faktörlerle ana- tomik ve fonksiyonel başarı açısından değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Konvansiyonel dekolman cerrahisi uygulanan ilk grupta, 8 gözün 6’sında ilk operasyonla anatomik başarı sağlanırken, iki gözde ikinci operasyonla retina yatıştırıldı. İkinci grupta, kombine cerrahi uygulanan 8 gözün 7’sinde ilk operasyonda, birinde ikinci operasyonla anatomik ba- şarı sağlandı. Başka merkezlerde konvansiyonel dekolman cerrahisi uygulanan ve nüks gelişen dört gözün ikisinde kli- niğimizde gerçekleştirdiğimiz ilk operasyonla, birinde ikin- ci operasyonla anatomik yatışma sağlanırken, kalan bir gözde anatomik başarı sağlanamadı. Son kontrollerde 19 gözde retina yatışıktı (%95), 14 gözde görme artışı olurken (%70), 6 gözde görme artışı elde edilemedi (%30). Sonuç: Alt kadran yırtıklarının sebep olduğu retina dekolman- larında, PVR yoksa tek başına konvansiyonel dekolman cerrahisi, PVR varsa kombine skleral çökertme ve PPV uy- gulanmasının başarılı anatomik ve fonksiyonel sonuçlar verdiği görülmektedir.
