RESUMEN
In our report, we present the hypersonic vitrectomy (Vitesse, Bausch and Lomb) being employed for anterior vitreous liquefaction and removal in posterior capsular rupture. The capsular tear with nucleus drop during conventional phacoemulsification was managed by vitrectomy using the hypersonic vitrector after posterior-assisted levitation followed by intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. The minimal cortical and epinuclear lens particles in the anterior chamber and vitreous were also liquefied with a stoke length of 30 to 40 ?m and aspirated via the Vitesse vitrectomy system. The same probe performs the vitrectomy and the nucleus removal. The postoperative period was uneventful with clear cornea, normal fundus, and 20/20 best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA). The hypersonic vitrectomy utilizes the ultrasound power of 29.5 kHz and a stoke length of 0 to 60 ?m for liquefaction of the vitreous. It can be a safe alternative for vitrectomy and lens removal in a single setting.
