Abstract:
We experienced a case of D3 proliferative vitreoretinopathy complicated with a shortened retina in a 31-year-old male which was managed using 360-degrees circumferential retinotomy technique and a case of D1 proliferative vitreoretinopathy complicated with a shortened retina in a 26-year-old female which was managed using 260-degrees circumferential retinotomy technique. We report these cases with a review of the literature
