Surgical techniques for primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachments between surgeons with high vs low single surgery success rates
Acta Ophthalmologica Mar 18, 2021
Starr MR, Hsu J, Yonekawa Y, et al. - Researchers conducted the study for identifying differences in preoperative features and intraoperative approaches between surgeons with higher vs lower single surgery success rates (SSSR) for the repair of rhegmatogenous retinal detachments (RRDs). In total, 689 surgeries were involved in the analysis. Data reported that the mean SSSR was 94% for the higher tier and 75% for the lower tier. Surgeons with high SSSR typically conducted SB as well as combination PPV/SB for more RRDs. Similar numbers of PPV and PPV/SB were conducted on pseudophakic eyes, implying that the difference in SSSR between the two groups may be due to a combination of preoperative and intraoperative decisions, as well as differences in technique.
