A Study on Pattern of Retinal Detachment in Patients with Choroidal Coloboma and Its Outcome after Surgery at a Tertiary Eye Hospital in Nepal

Abstract: Background. To review the pattern of retinal detachment (RD) in patients with choroidal coloboma and type of reattachment surgery performed and to study its outcome in terms of retinal reattachment, visual acuity, and postsurgical complications. Methods. Observational case series of a single tertiary eye institution of 13 eyes having choroidal coloboma with RD done from January 2015 to June 2017. Results. Mean age of presentation was 29.3 years (Range 14–60 years). Males were two times more affected than femal… Show more

“…23 The other study by Suwal and colleagues involving 12 eyes undergoing surgery mentioned a follow-up period of 6 months, which is again inadequate to properly assess the final outcome. 24 In our series, 45.2% of eyes developed redetachment, with 50% of them showing redetachment within 6 months after the first vitrectomy surgery. Several of these cases required SOIs to be repeated for redetachments.…”

“…The anatomical success rate of MIVS in coloboma RD in our series of patients was 90.5%, which was comparable to the success rate of PPV and oil tamponade reported in the literature. [ 8 10 11 12 12 ] However, it remains difficult to accurately compare the anatomical success rates between two studies due to the heterogeneity of the cases and differences in the definition of anatomical success. A review of the literature pertaining to the various studies on the surgical outcomes of coloboma retinal detachments is described in Table 4 .…”

“…Incidence of RRD is 2.4 -42%, this can occur in the abnormally dysplastic retina colobomatous retina or extra colobomatous area. 4 Patients presented with coloboma of posterior segment were treated with barrage laser to the edges of the coloboma as prophylactic treatment to prevent RRD and patients with RRD underwent surgical management, pars plana vitrectomy with silicone oil tamponade. Surgical results in our study were good in 2 cases, in one case anatomical outcome was good but visual outcome was not favourable probably due to secondary glaucoma.…”
