چکیده

eurpaSe To analyse anatomical and functional results of retinal detachment swery in cases complicated by proliferative vitreoretinopatby in childhood. M&Q& Thirty six consecutive cases of retinal detachment complicated by PVR stages Cl and more in childhood were analysed retrospectively. All the cases associated scleral buckling, pars plana vitrectomy, complete membrane peeling, injection of liquid perflomcarbon (LPFC), endophotocoagulation, and internal tamponade. In selected cases lensectomy and/or relaxing retinotomy were requiered. &J&S Predominant etitogies were blunt trauma and high myopia. Anatomical swxs was obtained with one operation in 7 cases, and 2 OI more operations in 14 cases. Final visual acuity was <O.l, O.l-0.4 and 0.4 or more in 23, 10 and 3 cases respectively. Conelusion Complicated retinal detachment in childhood represents a high proportion of overall RD in childhood and could be treated wing agressive vitreoretinal procedures with comparative visual outcome to RD’s in adult.
