Combined pars plana vitrectomy and retinal surgery in massive periretinal proliferation. 1983

G Treister, and J Moisseiev

Thirty-two patients with retinal detachment and massive periretinal proliferation underwent combined vitreous and retinal surgery. The cases were divided into two groups: 18 patients primarily operated on and 14 patients with a history of previous unsuccessful retinal surgery. Successful reattachment was accomplished in 13 eyes of the first group (70%), with a mean follow-up period of 8.5 +/- 1.9 months. In the second group, reattachment was accomplished in seven eyes (50%) followed for 11.4 +/- 2.3 months. Visual improvement was achieved in 61% and 29% of eyes in the first and second groups, respectively. These results indicate that eyes with retinal detachment and massive periretinal proliferation following retinal surgery have a much worse prognosis than patients who were not previously operated on.

D012086	Reoperation	A repeat operation for the same condition in the same patient due to disease progression or recurrence, or as followup to failed previous surgery.	Revision, Joint,Revision, Surgical,Surgery, Repeat,Surgical Revision,Repeat Surgery,Revision Surgery,Joint Revision,Revision Surgeries,Surgery, Revision
D012160	Retina	The ten-layered nervous tissue membrane of the eye. It is continuous with the OPTIC NERVE and receives images of external objects and transmits visual impulses to the brain. Its outer surface is in contact with the CHOROID and the inner surface with the VITREOUS BODY. The outer-most layer is pigmented, whereas the inner nine layers are transparent.	Ora Serrata
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.

D014792	Visual Acuity	Clarity or sharpness of OCULAR VISION or the ability of the eye to see fine details. Visual acuity depends on the functions of RETINA, neuronal transmission, and the interpretative ability of the brain. Normal visual acuity is expressed as 20/20 indicating that one can see at 20 feet what should normally be seen at that distance. Visual acuity can also be influenced by brightness, color, and contrast.	Acuities, Visual,Acuity, Visual,Visual Acuities
D014821	Vitrectomy	Removal of the whole or part of the vitreous body in treating endophthalmitis, diabetic retinopathy, retinal detachment, intraocular foreign bodies, and some types of glaucoma.	Vitrectomies
