Abstract: AIM:To evaluate the feasibility and advantages of two-port 27-gauge pars plana vitrectomy for treatment of recurrent retinal detachment in silicone oil dwelling eyes.METHODS:A retrospective study.Two-port 27-gauge pars plana vitrectomy was performed in 7 eyes with recurrent retinal detachment without remove of silicone oil.Proliferative membrane peeling, endolaser treatment, and drainage of subretinal fluid were performed.Scleral bulking was performed if necessary.RESULTS:Sucessful retina re-attachment was accomplishied in all eyes.No visually significant intraoperative complication occurred.All eyes expericend quick recoveray of visual acuity and mild postoperative irritation.One eye developed a recurrent inferior retinal detchment in 20d after the surgery using non-remove technique, and recovered after conventional silicone oil removal and retinal reattachment surgery.CONCLUSION:Two-port 27-gauge pars plana vitrectomy is an efficacious (and potentially cost-efficient) method to treat early stage recurrent retinal detachment in silicone oil dwelling eyes.
