Abstract

We performed proliferative vitreoretinopathy surgery in 100 cases post rhematogenous retinal detachment, excluding RD secondary to giant breaks, to trauma and diabetic retinopathy. We used vitrectomy associated to scleral indentation especially in the lower 180 degrees, cryotherapy and liquid-gas exchange. Although we performed internal tamponade with silicone too, we choose to release this us our last alternative. Silicone permits a worse internal tamponade and requires also its extraction for corneal, retinal and intraocular pression problems.
