Treatment of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment uncomplicated by massive periretinal proliferation by pars plana vitrectomy. 1985

B M Billington, and A H Chignell

Pars plana vitrectomy was used to treat rhegmatogenous retinal detachment in 12 cases of macular hole and 27 cases with incomplete massive periretinal proliferation. The surgical success rate and visual outcome are discussed.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D012163 Retinal Detachment Separation of the inner layers of the retina (neural retina) from the pigment epithelium. Retinal detachment occurs more commonly in men than in women, in eyes with degenerative myopia, in aging and in aphakia. It may occur after an uncomplicated cataract extraction, but it is seen more often if vitreous humor has been lost during surgery.
