Removal of the intruding Miragel's scleral buckle by pars plana ultrasonic fragmentation.

Abstract:

PURPOSE:To introduce a surgical approach for removing intruded scleral buckle resulting from Miragel's implant. DESIGN:Interventional case report. METHODS:After cutting and releasing scleral band externally, a pars plana Fragmatome was used to break up and aspirate pieces of the Miragel's implant that had grown into the eye, filling the vitreous cavity. RESULTS:The intruding Miragel's buckle was shaved to the plane of the retina without any complication. The retina was completely attached. CONCLUSION:Use of ultrasonic fragmentation by a pars plana approach was effective in removing the intavitreally expanded buckling element without harming the retina.
