Scleral Buckling with Chandelier Illumination
Scleral buckling is a highly successful technique for the repair of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment that requires intra-operative examination of the retina and treatment of retinal breaks via indirect ophthalmoscopy. Data suggest that scleral buckling likely results in improved outcomes for many patients but is declining in popularity, perhaps because of significant advances in vitrectomy ins...
متن کاملPersistence of indentation with bioabsorbable poly-L/D-lactide versus silicone sponge scleral buckling implants.
PURPOSE To measure the amount and duration of indentation depth achieved with biodegradable poly-L/D-lactide 96/4 (PLA96) and silicone sponge implants. METHODS Thirty rabbits underwent a scleral buckling procedure. A PLA96 buckling implant was used in 15 rabbits and a silicone sponge buckling implant was in 15 rabbits. A circumferential scleral buckling implant was sutured episclerally on the...
متن کاملA Scleral Buckling Procedure.
THE past few years have seen the rapid development of scleral buckling procedures for the treatment of retinal separation (Cavka, 1959; Schepens, Okamura, and Brockhurst, 1957; Schepens, Okamura, Brockhurst, and Regan, 1960; Fison, McAuley, Meyer-Schwickerath, and Trevor-Roper, 1960). About 6 years ago I first used the lamellar scleral flap to cover the area of resection. The flap covered the k...
متن کاملCircumferential silicone sponge scleral buckling induced axial length changes: case series and comparison to literature
BACKGROUND This study compared axial length changes induced by circumferential scleral buckling using a silicone sponge with literature reports for solid silicone rubber. METHODS Records of patients treated with scleral buckling in 2009-2013 using a silicone sponge, with preoperative axial length biometry measurements were reviewed. Additional information included age, type of surgery, additi...
متن کاملA Case of Extrusion of a Solid Silicone Tire Migrating through the Superior Rectus Muscle with Aeromonas hydrophila Infection following a Scleral Buckling Procedure
To our knowledge, there are no reports of Aeromonas hydrophila infection after a scleral buckling procedure. Also, migration of a silicone explant element through the rectus muscles is extremely rare. Herein, we describe a case experiencing extrusion of a solid silicone tire migrating through the superior rectus muscle with Aeromonas hydrophila infection following a scleral buckling procedure. ...
