Importance: In-office suprachoroidal viscopexy (SCVEXY) is a relatively new procedure for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD), but minimal information is available regarding outcomes and safety.
Objective: To report outcomes with in-office SCVEXY for primary acute RRD.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This retrospective case series was conducted at St Michael's Hospital in Toronto, Ontario, Canada from June 2023 to February 2024 among consecutive patients with primary acute RRDs who presented with retinal tears that were reachable with the current in-office SCVEXY technique in the temporal or nasal retina.
Purpose: To comprehensively investigate the suprachoroidal space (SCS) in the context of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) using swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT).
Methods: We conducted a post hoc analysis of 90 consecutive patients with a primary RRD. Baseline SS-OCT scans were graded for the presence and thickness of the suprachoroidal space.
Purpose: To report the technique and long-term outcomes of patients with giant retinal tear associated retinal detachment (GRT-RD) treated with pneumatic retinopexy (PnR).
Methods: Retrospective cohort study. All patients presenting with GRT-RD with tears in the superior ten-clock hours who underwent primary PnR were included in this study.
Objective: To describe the sequential morphological changes of the outer retina after full-thickness macular hole (FTMH) formation utilizing a novel, objective staging system based on OCT, and to determine its association with baseline visual acuity, duration of symptoms, and postoperative visual acuity at 3 months.
Design: Retrospective, observational, multicenter study.
Participants: Patients with idiopathic FTMH presenting to St.
Article Synopsis
- A new positioning technique, known as the mini-steamroll maneuver, is introduced for patients with retinal detachment after a procedure called pneumatic retinopexy (PnR).
- The study involved six patients and showed that the maneuver, which includes a face-down position for 10 minutes, significantly reduced subretinal fluid and aided in retinal reattachment.
- The findings suggest that the mini-steamroll maneuver could be an effective and simpler alternative for patient positioning post-PnR in specific cases.
