Abstract
Background: The purpose of this study was to present a modified surgical technique involving pars plana vitrectomy with large chorioretinectomy for eyes with rupture of the globe due to severe ocular blunt trauma.
Methods: This retrospective study included consecutive patients with rupture of the globe due to blunt trauma who were treated at the King Khaled Eye Specialist Hospital (Riyadh, Saudi Arabia). All patients underwent 25-gauge pars plana vitrectomy with large chorioretinectomies involving all the tissue around the posterior scleral wounds. Outcome measures included best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), anatomical success and globe survival, rates of complications.
Results: 15 eyes of 15 patients were included. Mean BCVA was 2.88 ± 0.13 logMAR at presentation, and significantly improved to 0.83 ± 0.28 logMAR (P < 0.001), with 10 patients (67%) achieving a final BCVA ≥ 20/200. Anatomical success and globe survival were achieved in 11 (73%) and 15 (100%) of eyes, respectively. Postoperative complications included retinal detachment in 6 eyes (40%), epiretinal membrane in 6 (40%), hypotony in 4 (26%), PVR in 2 (13%).
Conclusions: Pars plana vitrectomy with large chorioretinectomy is an effective treatment for globe rupture following severe blunt trauma, yielding good visual outcomes and anatomical success rates.
期刊介绍:
International Journal of Retina and Vitreous focuses on the ophthalmic subspecialty of vitreoretinal disorders. The journal presents original articles on new approaches to diagnosis, outcomes of clinical trials, innovations in pharmacological therapy and surgical techniques, as well as basic science advances that impact clinical practice. Topical areas include, but are not limited to: -Imaging of the retina, choroid and vitreous -Innovations in optical coherence tomography (OCT) -Small-gauge vitrectomy, retinal detachment, chromovitrectomy -Electroretinography (ERG), microperimetry, other functional tests -Intraocular tumors -Retinal pharmacotherapy & drug delivery -Diabetic retinopathy & other vascular diseases -Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) & other macular entities
