Abstract

For the first time in 2002 Fujii and his colleagues published 25 gauge (G) and in 2005 Eckart published 23 G transconjunctival sutureless vitrectomy surgical technique. The complications of these surgical techniques can be collected into two groups as intraoperative and postoperative. All of the serious complications in both groups are associated with leakage of the sclerotomies. Main complications are fluid or tamponade material leakage from sclerotomies, postoperative hypotonia, need for peroperative or postoperative suturization of sclerotomies, serous choroidal detachment, vitreus hemorrhage and endophthalmitis. As foreseen theoretically studies including large case series have shown that small incisional transconjunctival sutureless vitrectomy endophthalmitis complication is not much more than classical 20 G vitrectomy surgery. Even though this surgery is named as sutureless vitrectomy surgery, suturization of sclerotomies should not be avoided if needed.

Özet

Küçük kesili sütürsüz vitrektomi cerrahi tekniği, cerrahi pratiğimize 2000’li yıllarda girmiştir. İlk kez 2002 yılında Fujii ve ark., 25 gauge (G), 2005 yılında ise Eckardt 23 G transkonjonktival sütürsüz vitrektomi cerrahi tekniğini yayınlamışlardır. Bu cerrahi tekniğin komplikasyonlarını intraoperatif ve postoperatif komplikasyonlar olmak üzere genel olarak iki grupta toplayabiliriz. Her iki grupta da ciddi komplikasyonların tümü sklerotomilerin sızdırması ile ilişkilidir. Bunların başlıcaları sklerotomilerden sıvı kaçağı tampon madde kaçağı, postoperatif hipotoni, peroperatif ve postoperatif sütür gereksinimi, seröz koroid dekolmanı, vitreus kanaması ve endoftalmidir. Yapılan geniş vaka serilerini içeren çalışmalarda küçük kesili sütürsüz vitrektomi cerrahi tekniklerde endoftalmi komplikasyonunun teorik olarak öngörüldüğü gibi klasik 20 G vitrektomi cerrahisinden daha fazla olmadığı gösterilmiştir. Buna rağmen hernekadar sütürsüz vitrektomi cerrahisi olarak adlandırılsa da bu teknikte gerekli görüldüğünde sklerotomileri sütüre etmekten kaçınılmamalıdır.
