Vitrectomy and Pars Plana Baerveldt Implant for Neovascular Glaucoma
APRIL 2011 I RETINA TODAY I 39 N eovascular glaucoma (NVG) is often caused by posterior segment disease, primarily diabetic retinopathy, central retinal vein occlusion, or carotid occlusive disease. Surgical options in NVG include trabeculectomy, trabeculectomy with mitomycin-C, cyclodestruction, and tube stent implants. An anterior segment approach to stent placement in patients with NVG may h...
متن کاملPars plana vitrectomy with pars plana tube implantation in eyes with intractable glaucoma.
AIMS Intractable glaucoma is glaucoma resistant to medical therapy and conventional surgical procedures. In this study, a planned surgical technique is discussed for controlling the increased intraocular pressure in selected cases with intractable glaucoma. METHODS Total pars plana vitrectomy with pars plana tube implantation was performed in 17 eyes of 17 cases with intractable glaucoma. Pat...
متن کاملSclerotomy for pars plana vitrectomy.
Closed vitrectomy has largely supplanted the 'open sky' method, particularly because it results in minimal interference with the integrity of the globe. Ideally the pars plana sclerotomy should be sufficiently watertight to allow the intraocular pressure to be maintained during surgery without impeding free movement of the vitrectomy instrument within the eye. We describe a sclerotomy technique...
متن کاملSmall Gauge Pars Plana Vitrectomy
Although the history of ophthalmic surgery can be dated back thousands of years with operations to treat cataracts, surgery involving the vitreous cavity has only been reported for less than 50 years. The initial description of major vitreous surgery was introduced by David Kasner in 1969 (Kasner, 1969). He described excision removal of the vitreous using a sponge and scissors, under an open sk...
متن کاملPars plana vitrectomy versus combined pars plana vitrectomy-scleral buckle for secondary repair of retinal detachment.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE To investigate the optimal technique for repairing recurrent rhegmatogenous retinal detachments. PATIENTS AND METHODS A 2-year retrospective review of recurrent rhegmatogenous retinal detachments by 23-gauge pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) or combined 23-gauge PPV with encircling scleral buckling was performed. The primary outcome was anatomical success. The secondary out...
