Abstract:
Objective:To assess the clinical setting of a heavy silicone oil tamponade(Densiron-68) for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment(RRD).Methods:Twenty-nine eyes of 29 consecutive patients were recruited between December 2007 and February 2009.Primary vitrectomy with Densiron-68 was used in all cases.Patients to be selected had two groups:one group had 18 cases,mean age was 72.5 years.These patients were impossible prone because of ages and body factors.Among these of 11 cases had macular holes and posterior pole part holes,another of 7 cases had many holes.Another group had 11 cases,mean age was 45.8 years.These patients with inferior complex rhegmatogenous retinal detachment with secondary proliferative vitreoretinopathy(PVR) were included.Besides one case of giant retinal tear with between 2 and 7 clock hours,among these of 7 cases had one or two scleral buckling procedure,or pars plana vitrectomy with oil endotamponade.But inferior recurrent retinal re-detachment appeared.Surgical techniques included pars plana vitrectomy,membrane peeling,heavy water application,endophotocoagulation,cryocoagulation,endotamponade et al.Results:1or 13-month follow up,mean 4.3-month.Densiron-68 removal with 25 cases was after operation of 2 months,and didn't remove of 4 cases.After Densiron-68 removal,majority showed a stable reattached retina without further interventions,while,in one or two patients,recurrent retinal re-detachment appeared during Densiron-68 removal.Some of patients had partly lens opacification or lens post-capsular opacification.Part of patients had ocular hypertension.Conclusion:With Densiron-68,high anatomical and functional success rates can be achieved with inferior complex rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.Heavy silicone oil tamponade improves inferior tamponade,and may be considered a new generation of intraocular tamponades.But there were a significant early emulsification.Despite adequate Densiron fills,emulsification necessitated its removal.
