ABSTRACT
An anaysis has been made of 86 eyes of retinal detachment treated surgically in our hospital during the last 3yrs. The final complete failure rate was 16.6% (14 eyes), and the failure rate in the first operation was 25.5% (24 eyes). The preoperative factors that were found to be significant in leading to failure were young age, delay of surgery over 6 months, large extent of detachment, giant tear and fibrosis of vitreous or retina. The failure rate in the first operation due to inadequate surgical techniques was 32%, and subretinal fluid drainage was not contributory to the failure rate. It was noteworthy that 64% of failed cases were due to M.V.R. Adnavces in knowledge of pathophysiology of vitreous in complicated retinal detachment and in technique of vitreous surgery may reduce the failure rate.
