Retinal Detachment in Down Syndrome: Characteristics and Surgical Outcomes

“…For 20-gauge surgery, success ranges from 74.3% to 89.3% and for 23-gauge surgery, success ranges from 80% to 91.7% [ 17 , 18 ]. For buckle surgery, surgical success ranges between 76% and 91% [ 19 , 20 ] and, for cases with PVR, between 68% and 84% [ 21 , 22 ]. In our study, the anatomical success rate was 88.89%, which was comparable to rates in the literature.…”

Planned Delayed Relaxing Retinotomy for Proliferative Vitreoretinopathy

“…Success rates are usually stubbornly low in patients with PVR, with single operations between 62% to 65% [11][12][13][14] and multiple operations between 68% to 84%, 12,15 despite a variety of methods used 16 and are even poorer if silicone oil removal is a requirement of success (eg, 51%). 17 Patients who achieve a reattached retina with one operation have significantly better visual outcomes, 18 but this is often not achievable.…”

“…Success rates are usually stubbornly low in patients with PVR with single operations approximately 62-65 % (Stolba et al 1995 ;Fisher et al 1988 ;Cox et al 1986 ) or multiple operations 68-84 % ) despite a variety of methods used (Iverson et al 1990 ) , and even poorer if silicone oil removal is a requirement of success, for example, 51-81 % (Charteris et al 2004 ;Lam et al 2008 ) .
