A Power-Driven Multipositional Operating Table

Retinal Tears 180° and Greater

“…It was found that a mixture of 40% SF6 and 60% air avoids increases in pres¬ sure. 5 It is obvious that when gas is used for intraocular tamponade, there should not be any leakage site. Therefore, the sclerotomy and the needle entrance site have to be carefully closed in a gas-tight manner with fine but strong sutures."…”

Use of fluorosilicone to unfold a giant retinal tear

“…Surgical techniques to achieve this maneuver have included preoperative exercises; [23] an intraocular balloon [8]; the use of Healon [7], air [17], gas [16,18], or silicone oil [4,14,15,23] in conjunction with vitrectomy and fluid-air exchange [9], while the patient is on a rotating table [20,22]; and the incarceration or microincarceration of the vitreous or retina [11,13,21]. Transscleral [6,10] and opensky transvitreal retinal sutures [12], as well as retinal tacks [1], have also been advocated for this purpose.…”

Toxicidade do hexafluoreto de enxofre e do líquido perfluorocarbonado para a retina de coelhos

“…Os DR por rotura gigante, com retalho invertido, são de difícil tratamento. Várias técnicas foram desenvolvidas para a solução do problema, como sondas de endoc1iocoagulação (CIBIS, 1965), mesas cirúrgicas rotatórias (SCHEPENS et al, 1965), encarceramento da retina (SUZUKI, 1989), suturas retínicas (FEDERMAN et al, 1982) e outras técnicas de difícil realização e resultados não satisfatórios.…”
