Three-dimensional ocular endoscope system for vitrectomy

PURPOSE: To introduce a new three-dimensional (3D) endoscope system for vitrectomy. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: We report a single-center, retrospective, consecutive surgical case series of 391 eyes that underwent 25G hybrid vitrectomy. To create 3D endoscopic images, a 3D converter HD-3D-A was connected...

Sumario:PURPOSE: To introduce a new three-dimensional (3D) endoscope system for vitrectomy. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: We report a single-center, retrospective, consecutive surgical case series of 391 eyes that underwent 25G hybrid vitrectomy. To create 3D endoscopic images, a 3D converter HD-3D-A was connected to a monocular endoscopic system. RESULTS: The 3D endoscope system was successfully used to perform hybrid vitrectomy. No intra- or postoperative complications related to this system were encountered in any of the cases. CONCLUSION: This 3D endoscope system appears to be a valuable and promising tool for use in vitrectomy.
