Background: Despite advances in surgical techniques for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) repair, patients are still at high risk low functional outcomes. Given the above, it is important to find reasons disappointment outcomes of vitreoretinal surgery RRD. Impaired microcirculation a possible cause insufficiently good Purpose: To compare postoperative optical coherence tomography angiogr...

Abstract Background Although postoperative delirium is a frequent complication of surgery, little known about risk factors for occurring in the post-anaesthesia care unit (PACU). The aim this study was to determine pre- and intraoperative development recovery room (RRD) patients undergoing elective non-cardiovascular surgery. Methods RRD diagnosed according Confusion Assessment Method Intensive...

Laser photocoagulation might aggravate the ischemia of an area of retinal detachment and predispose the retina to formation of neovascularization and an angioma-like lesion. We present a case of retinal neovascularization (RNV) and an angioma-like lesion occurring after demarcation photocoagulation for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD). A 20-year-old woman suffered from a retinal atrophic...

Radiation recall dermatitis (RRD) is an inflammatory skin reaction that occurs in a previously irradiated body part following drug administration. This phenomenon may occur from days to years following exposure to ionizing radiation. The case of a 54-year-old Caucasian woman who was initially treated with external-beam radiation to the right thoracic region following the diagnosis of a poorly d...

In this study, the researchers examined anxious and depressive symptoms of patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) prior to and up to year after retinal detachment surgery. One hundred and thirteen (113) patients with RRD took part in this prospective longitudinal study. Anxiety and depression were evaluated using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). Visual acuity (VA...

Background and Objective To evaluate full-thickness macular hole (MH) formation in the postoperative period after initial vitrectomy for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (rRD). Materials and Methods We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 4 consecutive eyes that required additional vitrectomy for full-thickness MH between April 2013 and March 2016 after undergoing an initial vitre...

Purpose To assess the outcome of sutureless encirlcing number 41 band and transscleral laser retinopexy in uncomplicated rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD), using a wide-angle viewing system (WAVS) and chandelier endoillumination. Methods Prospective intervention study included 30 eyes of 30 patients presenting with RRD of recent onset indicated for SB. All cases were treated by suturele...

Purpose: To compare the results of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with and without an encircling scleral band (SB) for the repair of primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD). Methods: We reviewed the records of 49 patients who underwent PPV and combined vitrectomy plus SB for primary RRD. The minimum follow-up time was 6 months. There were 25 eyes in the PPV group and 24 eyes in the PPV plu...

PURPOSE To evaluate macular function, before and after photodynamic therapy (PDT) using multifocal electroretinogram (MF-ERG), in eyes suffering from classic subfoveal choroidal neovascularization (CNV) resulting from age-related macular degeneration (ARMD). METHODS Twenty eyes of 20 patients (10 male, 10 female) with classic subfoveal CNV resulting from ARMD were studied. All received PDT wi...

PURPOSE To evaluate the effect of local lidocaine application on the incidence of the oculocardiac reflex (OCR) during scleral buckling (SB) for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) under general anesthesia. METHODS In a randomized clinical trial, eyes with RRD scheduled for SB under general anesthesia were randomized to adjunctive local application of 1 ml lidocaine 2% versus normal salin...
