Hybrid-2-Port-23/25-G-Pars-plana-Vitrektomie zur Entfernung von Öl höherer Viskosität

This article presents a new hybrid method of a combined 2‑port 23/25G pars plana vitrectomy for removal of silicone oil (5700 centistokes) compared to a 25G vitrectomy. In this hybrid technique the infusion is performed through a 25G cannula and the oil removal through a 23G cannula. The duration of...

Sumario:This article presents a new hybrid method of a combined 2‑port 23/25G pars plana vitrectomy for removal of silicone oil (5700 centistokes) compared to a 25G vitrectomy. In this hybrid technique the infusion is performed through a 25G cannula and the oil removal through a 23G cannula. The duration of the surgery and the intraocular pressure (IOP) in both groups were compared. The oil removal using the hybrid technique was performed significantly faster with a reduction of the time by 32.2% but there was no difference in the IOP. In conclusion, silicone oil removal through a 25G cannula is generally possible but oil removal with the new hybrid technique is much faster.
