Vidne-Hay O, Abumanhal M, Elkader AA, et al. - In this investigation involving 114 patients (114 eyes), researchers assessed the visual and anatomical outcomes of reoperations following failure of pneumatic retinopexy (PR) for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment repair and contrasted the various surgical techniques used in these cases. Participants in the study were patients who had PR for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment and required subsequent surgery for its repair. These involved recurrent PR, scleral buckling, vitrectomy with gas or silicone oil, and vitrectomy with scleral buckling. Pneumatic retinopexy failure has not been associated with loss of visual acuity, and the findings in 79.2% of cases involving only one additional surgery are equivalent to those obtained with primary surgery. Poor outcomes were associated with eyes which needed more than one additional operation and which had complications.
