To evaluate the advantage of perfluorocarbon liquid as a hydrokinetic manipulation tool during complex vitreoretinal surgery.Methods:
Forty-two eyes with complicated retinal detachment were treated with vitrectomy and intravitreal perfluorocarbon liquid injection. Postoperative tamponade were obtained with silicon oil or gas.Results:
Retinas were successfully reattached in all eyes intraoperatively, after a follow-up period of 3-6 months,34 of the 42 retinas (81%) remain attached .Conclusion:
