OBJECTIVE This paper presents early and later stage of the treatment of 93 eyes (89 patients) with retinal detachment in the course of PVR. All patients were treated in our department between February 1992 and February 1994. METHODS Standard port pars plana vitrectomy was performed in all cases related earlier with sclear buckling procedure without success. RESULTS One week, 6, 12, 24 months after surgery good anatomical results were achieved respectively in: 82%, 80%, 78%. One week, 6, 12, 24 months after surgery good functional results were achieved respectively in: 74%, 67%, 58%. CONCLUSIONS Vitrectomy with silicone oil tamponade is method of choice in the treatment of retinal detachment in the course of PVR.

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.

D018630 Vitreoretinopathy, Proliferative Vitreoretinal membrane shrinkage or contraction secondary to the proliferation of primarily retinal pigment epithelial cells and glial cells, particularly fibrous astrocytes, followed by membrane formation. The formation of fibrillar collagen and cellular proliferation appear to be the basis for the contractile properties of the epiretinal and vitreous membranes.
