  • Title: Gas vitrectomy in a primate model.
    Author: Lincoff H, Kreissig I, Jakobiec F, Iwamoto T, Vitolo J, Shapiro R.
    Journal: Graefes Arch Clin Exp Ophthalmol; 1986; 224(3):215-7. PubMed ID: 3710176.
    Abstract:
    Total displacement of vitreous by an expanding bubble of a perfluorocarbon gas was studied in cynomolgus monkeys. The clinical observations and the gross dissection suggested that cortical vitreous might have been stripped from the retina; however, electron microscopy of frozen sections demonstrated that the collagen structure of the vitreous was compressed against the retina.
