[Treatment of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment complicated by vitreous hemorrhage]. 1993

W J Wang
Eye and ENT Hospital, Shanghai Medical University.

8 cases of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment associated with vitreous hemorrhage were treated by first removing the blood through vitrectomy followed by routine retina reattachment procedures, such as searching for retinal breaks with indirect ophthalmoscopy and scleral buckling or encircling. Among 6 cases followed up, only 1 cases relapsed due to PVR traction. The points of note during operation were mentioned and the relationship between retinal breaks with vitreous hemorrhage and posterior vitreous detachment discussed.

D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
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.
