retinal resection technique

Retinal resection technique is difficult to operate and has many complications. It is only used in vitreous surgery to deal with some extremely complicated situations. It is a way to have no way. The surgeon needs to have rich experience in surgical operation and carefully consider it. Treating diseases: optic nerve diseases Indication 1, the old huge hole retinal detachment, the posterior flap of the hole is stiff and cannot be reset. 2, traumatic retinal impaction, retinal incision combined with retinal resection. 3, extensive retinal, subretinal and retinal proliferation, can not be reset after loosening retinal incision. 4, severe eyeball rupture, eye content and most of the retina out of the eye or embedded in the wound. 5. Retinal shortening or retinal stiffness for whatever reason. Surgical procedure 1. Perform intraocular electrocoagulation in the pre-excision site to prevent edge bleeding during resection. 2. Retinal incision is performed before retinal resection, and the resected area is determined according to the location and extent of retinal fibrosis or stiffness. Only the retinal lesions are removed, leaving the soft retina as much as possible. 3, when doing 360° retinal resection, the edge of the resection should pay attention to completely stop bleeding, because bleeding is often the source of postoperative cell proliferation and the bane of retinal detachment. 4, the posterior pole and macular retinectomy should be carried out with caution, as long as the non-cutting time should be reduced as much as possible. 5, the edge of the residual retina 3 to 4 rows of laser photocoagulation.
