Abstract:
Objective To analyse the cause,therapeutic modalities and prognosis of late recurrent retinal detachment after scleral buckling.Methods A total of 657 patients(657 eyes) underwent scleral buckling,and the clinical data of 16 patients(16 eyes) with recurrent retinal detachment 6 months after the procedure were retrospectively analysed. ResultsLate recurrent retinal detachment occurred in 6 to 45 months after primary surgery,(23.87?18.46)months in average,in 2.44% of all the patients.Among the 16 patients with recurrent retinal detachment,11 experienced new retinal breaks,and old breaks reopened in the other 5.Proliferative vitreoretinopathy(PVR) grade B was found in 4 patients,grade C in 10,and grade D in 2.Fifteen patients were reoperated,among whom 4 received scleral buckling,and the other 11 vitreoretinal surgery.After reoperation,the retina was reattached in 13 cases.The patients were followed up for 4 to 16 months,and no new recurrence was observed. Conclusion Late recurrent retinal detachment after scleral buckling is rare and PVR seems to be an important factor.Reoperation based on the vitreoretinal condition can yield better prognosis.
