Abstract:
PURPOSE:To evaluate the long-term results of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) and silicone oil implantation (SOI) for giant retinal tears (GT). METHODS:PPV with SOI was performed for GT in 50 eyes of 46 patients. Thirty-one eyes (62%) of 27 patients suffered from idiopathic GT. A direct injury of the eye preceded GT in 19 eyes (38%), a contusion in 14 and perforation of the sclera in five. The patients were followed up for 12 to 96 months, with a mean of 33 months. RESULTS:At the end of follow-up, anatomical success with a flat macula was achieved in 39 eyes (78%). Functional success with visual acuity 0.02 or better was obtained in 37 eyes (74%). The final functional results did not depend on the size of the GT, and were better in post-traumatic GT (success in 84%) than in idiopathic ones (success in 68%). The functional success rate by life table analysis decreased from 81% after one year and 79% after three years to 55% after five or more years. Silicone oil was removed from 22 eyes (44%). After removal, the retina redetached in seven eyes (30%), and the redetachment caused final failure in two (9%). CONCLUSIONS:PPV with SOI proved highly effective in GT. Proliferative vitreoretinopathy was the main cause of surgical failure and a frequent obstacle to silicone oil removal. The risks of redetachment have to be evaluated especially carefully when dealing with the only eye.
