Novel technique for removal of persistent subretinal fluid following nondrain retinal detachment surgery
نویسندگان
چکیده
This manuscript describes a case of successful reattachment of a macular-off retinal detachment following optical coherence tomography-guided internal drainage of retained subretinal fluid following a nondrain method. To date, there has not been any documented treatment option for this common phenomenon. This novel technique describes a method to remove such fluid and successfully appose the retina to the retinal pigment epithelial layer.

Persistent subretinal fluid due to central serous chorioretinopathy after retinal detachment surgery
BACKGROUND The causes of persistent submacular detachment after successful rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) surgery remain unknown. Its presence is associated with poor postoperative visual acuity, but due to its spontaneous resolution no additional therapeutic or diagnostic procedure is recommended. CASE REPORT A case of central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) that simulated persistent...

متن کاملOptical coherence tomography findings in delayed subretinal fluid absorption after scleral buckling surgery.
The occurrence of loculated bleb-like delayed subretinal fluid absorption has been reported following scleral buckling surgery and more commonly following pneumatic retinopexy among adults and seldom in children. The authors report the occurrence of delayed subretinal fluid absorption following scleral buckling surgery for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment in a 15-year-old girl, indicating the ...
متن کاملSubretinal Perfluorocarbon Liquid for Dissection of Proliferative Vitreoretinopathy
Proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) is a frequent condition following complex retinal detachments or trauma, and subretinal PVR is a common cause of retinal redetachment. Subretinal PVR removal is challenging and may require creating multiple or large retinotomies, making manipulation of the retina difficult and sometimes hazardous. We propose a novel surgical technique that may facilitate su...
متن کاملUnusual presentation of residual subretinal fluid composition after surgery for acute rhegmatogenous retinal detachment
The purpose of this paper is to report an unusual case of accumulation of residual subretinal fluid after surgery for acute rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, sparing the fovea. A 28-year-old male presented with a four-day history of acute visual loss in his right eye secondary to bulbous rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, sparing the fovea. The patient underwent an uneventful pars plana vitrec...
