Non-contact wide-angled visualization with chandelier-assisted scleral buckling for primary uncomplicated rhegmatogenous retinal detachment
Graefe's Archive for Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology May 19, 2020
Roca JA, Maia M, da Cruz NFS, et al. - In this investigation involving 160 male patients [average age was 42.6 years old], researchers reported their experience in non-contact wide-angled visualization with chandelier-assisted scleral buckling (SB) in uncomplicated primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachments (RRD). It was a retrospective case series of 282 eyes that underwent non-contact wide-angled visualization with chandelier-assisted SB and were followed for a mean of 13.5 months. Data reported that the single operation anatomic success rate was 85.1% (240/282). A case of scleral laceration, choroidal hemorrhage, three epiretinal membranes, one macular fold, and four eyes with buckle exposure were included complications. For primary uncomplicated primary RRD, non-contact wide-angled visualization with chandelier-assisted SB compares favorably with conventional SB.
