Aderhautdicke nach Buckelchirurgie versus Pars-plana-Vitrektomie bei Makula-off-rhegmatogener Ablatio retinae

Abstract

There were no differences in subfoveal CT 1 and 6 months after SBS between the eye with macula-off RRD and the fellow eye. Thicker CT 1 week postoperatively after SBS may most likely be induced by scleral buckle reduced blood flow and increased haemostasis in the choroidal circulation and by scleral and choroidal inflammation after cryopexy versus laser photocoagulation after SBS versus PPV.

Association of Choroidal Thickness With Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment Repair

“…12 It has been reported by multiple studies that the increased CT after RD repair is followed by a return to baseline CT after 3 months to 6 months. 12,13 However, it is not known whether the changes in the CT immediately postoperatively and before returning to baseline have any relationship to the risk of redetachment. The clinical implication and the exact pathophysiology of postoperative CT changes have not been studied.…”
