Medium-term tamponade with vitrectomy and perfluorodecalin for the management of complex retinal detachments.
CONCLUSION: In this case series, we have demonstrated a 98.8% anatomical success and significant improvement in BCVA, with no reports of retinal toxicity. Medium-term tamponade PFD appears to be an efficacious and safe technique for management of a variety of complex retinal detachments, including those secondary to GRT, the presence of PVR-C, inferior location, tractional, traumatic, and re-detachments.
