Abstract：
BACKGROUND:Perfluorocarbon liquid (PFCL) is widely used as an intraoperative heavy tamponade to flatten the retina and is replaced with silicone oil (SO) at the end of the surgery. Due to the long tamponade period, the SO is known to remain attached to the retina at the time of removal, and is commonly termed "sticky oil". The aim of this present study was to report a case of SO stickily attached to the retina via PFCL without tamponade period. CASE PRESENTATION:A 39-year-old male was referred to our hospital due to decreased vision and visual field defect in his right eye. Upon examination, he was diagnosed with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment in that eye. For treatment, he underwent vitrectomy with the use of PFCL and SO. The direct exchange of PFCL with SO resulted in residual subretinal fluid, so we subsequently attempted to remove the SO. However, a SO bubble adhering to the PFCL was visible on the posterior pole. After aspiration of the PFCL beneath the sticky SO, the SO was easily separated and removed from the retina. CONCLUSIONS:Our findings show that SO can become tightly adhered to the retinal surface via PFCL during vitrectomy, and that the sticky SO can be safely removed via aspiration of the PFCL layer underneath the SO.
