NCT06324305

Brief Summary

The study will investigate and compare the three techniques in drainage of subretinal fluid in patients with macula off RRD: namely using the original break, performing a posterior drainage retinotomy and using PFC with drainage through the original break or peripheral retinotomy regarding the presence of persistent sub-retnal fluid and related intra or postoperative complications

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The presence versus absence of sub-macular fluid using each of the three different techniques in pars plana vitrectomy (PPV)

    optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging after PPV

    within 1 week and within 1 month from the PPV

Study Arms (3)

Group 1

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

drainage of sub-retinal fluid from the original (primary) break

Procedure: Pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) and drainage of subretinal fluid

Group 2

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

drainage of sub-retinal fluid using perfluorocarbon (PFC) and removing sub-retinal fluid through the original break or peripheral retinotomy

Procedure: Pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) and drainage of subretinal fluid

Group 3

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

drainage of sub-retinal fluid through formation of a posterior drainage retinotomy only.

Procedure: Pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) and drainage of subretinal fluid

Interventions

Drainage of subretinal fluid during Pars Plana Vitrectomy in patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD)

  • Patients with proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) more than PVR -B.
  • More than one month duration of detachment.
  • Patients with posterior staphyloma.
  • Patients with recurrent retinal detachment.
  • Patients with full thickness macular hole.
