Active removal of silicone oil with the 23-G transconjunctival sutureless technique was found to be effective and safe in both phakic and pseudophakic eyes

📌 3 Key Takeaways

🎯
Objective & Hypothesis:Objectives: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of active silicone oil removal with a 23-gauge (G) transconjunctival sutureless system.Materials and Methods: One hundred sixteen eyes of 113 patients who had previous retinal detachment surgery with pars plana vitrectomy and silicone oil injection surgery, and underwent silicone oil removal surgery with 23-G transconjonctival sutureless technique in our clinic between January 2009 and April 2014 were reviewed retrospectively.

Abstract

Objectives: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of active silicone oil removal with a 23-gauge (G) transconjunctival sutureless system.Materials and Methods: One hundred sixteen eyes of 113 patients who had previous retinal detachment surgery with pars plana vitrectomy and silicone oil injection surgery, and underwent silicone oil removal surgery with 23-G transconjonctival sutureless technique in our clinic between January 2009 and April 2014 were reviewed retrospectively. The patients were evaluated with regard to postoperative changes in best corrected visual acuity and intraocular pressure (IOP), and complications that occurred during and after surgery.Results: Of the 113 patients with mean age of 61.1±9.7 years (29-88 years), 62 (54.8%) were males and 51 (45.2%) were females. Silicone oil removal was performed 8.43±5.24 months after the initial surgery. Mean follow-up was 13.38±4.35 months. Visual acuity improved in 69 eyes (59.48%). Anatomic success was achieved in 113 eyes (97.41%). Mean IOP was 16.2±7.2 mmHg at baseline and 14.4±2.6 mmHg at postoperative day 1 (p=0.643). Eight eyes needed suturation of at least one sclerotomy. Retinal redetachment occurred in 3 eyes (2.5%) resulting in a decrease in vision. There were no cases of choroidal detachment, endophthalmitis, clinically significant corneal endothelial decompensation, or macular edema.Conclusion: Active removal of 1,300-centistoke silicone oil with a 23-G transconjunctival sutureless system is a simple, sutureless technique causing minor surgical trauma. Active removal of silicone oil with the 23-G transconjunctival sutureless technique was found to be effective and safe in both phakic and pseudophakic eyes

Özet

Amaç: 23-gauge (G) transkonjonktival sütürsüz teknik ile aktif silikon yağı alımında, sistemin etkinlik ve güvenilirliğinin değerlendirilmesidir. Gereç ve Yöntem: Kliniğimizde Ocak 2009-Nisan 2014 tarihleri arasında retina dekolmanı tanısıyla pars plana vitrektomi ve 1300 santistok silikon yağı enjekte edilen ve ardından 23-G transkonjonktival sütürsüz teknik ile aktif silikon yağı alınan 113 hastanın 116 gözü çalışmaya alındı. Hastalar silikon yağı alındıktan sonra en iyi düzeltilmiş görme keskinliği değişimi, göz içi basıncı (GİB) değişimi ve ameliyat sırasında ve sonrasında görülen komplikasyonlar açısından değerlendirildi.Bulgular: Ortalama yaş 61,1±9,7 yıl (29-88 yıl) olan, 113 hastanın 62'si (%54,8) erkek ve 51'i (%45,2) kadın idi. Silikon yağı, vitrektomi ameliyatından ortalama 8,43±5,24 ay sonra alındı. Silikon yağı alındıktan sonra ortalama izlem süresi 13,38±4,35 ay idi. Görme keskinliği yönünden 69 gözde (%59,48) artış sağlandı. Anatomik başarı gözlerin 113'ünde (%97,41) elde edildi. Silikon yağı alınmadan önce ortalama GİB değeri 16,2±7,2 mmHg iken, alındıktan bir gün sonra ortalama 14,4±2,6 mmHg olarak saptandı (p=0,643). Sekiz gözde (%6,89), en az bir sklerotomi alanında sütürasyon gerekti. Görme azalması ile sonuçlanan nüks retina dekolmanı 3 gözde (%2,5) meydana geldi. Hiçbir hastada koroid dekolmanı, endoftalmi, korneal dekompanzasyon ve maküla ödemi gelişmedi.Sonuç: 23-G transkonjonktival sütürsüz sistem ile 1,300 santistok aktif silikon yağının alınması kolay, minör cerrahi travmaya neden olan sütürsüz bir tekniktir. Fakik ve psödofakik gözlerde 23-G transkonjonktival sütürsüz teknik ile aktif silikon alınması etkili ve güvenilir bulundu
