Abstract

Corneal dellen is a corneal annular thinning parallel to the limbus resulting from a limbal elevation and due to dehydration of the cornea adjacent to this area. Pterygium, episcleritis, large filtration blebs, cataract surgery, trabeculectomy, extraocular muscle surgery, and severe chemosis are the most common proven causes of dellen in the literature. In this article, a case of corneal dellen due to subconjunctival silicone oil in a patient who underwent silicone tamponade with 25-gauge vitrectomy for retinal detachment and the treatment approach applied to this case is presented.

Özet

Korneal dellen, limbal bir elevasyondan kaynaklanan ve bu alanın bitişiğindeki korneanın dehidrasyonuna bağlı, limbusa paralel korneal halkasal incelmedir. Pterjium ,episklerit, büyük filtrasyon blebleri, katarakt cerrahisi, trabekülektomi, ekstraoküler kas cerrahisi, ciddi kemozis literatürde en sık rastlanan dellen nedenleridir. Bu makalede retina dekolmanı nedeniyle 25 gauge vitrektomi yapılıp silikon tamponadı kullanılması sonrası subkonjonktival silikon yağına bağlı korneal dellen gelişen bir olgu ve bu olguya uygulanan tedavi yaklaşımı sunulmaktadır.
