Serous Choroidal Detachment After Retinal Detachment Surgery

Choroidal Detachment following Retinal Detachment Surgery: An Analysis and a New Hypothesis to Minimize Its Occurrence in High-Risk Cases

“…The risk of choroidal detachment has been shown to increase with an increase in the extent of explant used for buckling. When the extent is less than 90°, the reported incidence is 8% and when more than 270°about 50% (2). In this study it was also seen that when only a segmental buckle was used, the risk of choroidal detachment was 10% and this increased to 28% on using an encircling element in addition to the buckle.…”

“…There is a reported incidence of 5% to 7% for the development of choroidal detachment even in patients in whom no drainage of the subretinal fluid has been undertaken (2,3,5). In our study, however, all patients had undergone drainage of the subretinal fluid.…”

Primary vitrectomy for the management of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment associated with choroidal detachment

“…These components lead to migration of retinal pigment epithelium and the beginning of proliferative vitreoretinopathy process [2,6,7,8,9]. Therefore, coexistence of preoperative choroidal detachment and rhegmatogenous retinal detachment is a definite risk factor for failure of conventional retinal detachment surgery [1,2,3,5,10,11,12,13,14]. Previous reports on this condition showed that risk factors for choroidal detachment are aphakia or pseudophakia, old age, and myopia [1,2,3,5].…”

Glaucoma following retinal detachment operations

“…Manipulation of the eye, obstruction of the venous flow and diathermy are important factors in this process. The correlation with age, sex and the size of the exoplant [12] is explained by the venous compression and the influence of atherosclerosis.…”
