본문 : Purpose : To assess the treatment efficacy of scleral buckling surgery with wide-field surgical microscope and 27 gauge chandelier illumination for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.
Methods : Ten eyes of 10 patients underwent scleral buckling surgery with wide-field surgical microscope and 27 gauge chandelier illumination fiber inserted into the sclera at the pars plana.
Results : The mean age of the patients was 43.5±3.5 years and the mean follow-up time was 10.4±2.5 months. Retinal reattachment was achieved in 10 of the 10 eyes.
Conclusion: Scleral Buckling with wide-field surgical microscope and chandelier illumination brings the advantages to exactly identify retinal tears and cryotherapy to determine the adequacy of the height and position of the buckle material. |
