Title: Results after vitrectomy in trauma. Author: Mandelcorn MS. Journal: Can J Ophthalmol; 1977 Jan; 12(1):34-7. PubMed ID: 849539. Abstract: We report the results of vitrectomy in 15 consecutive cases of ocular trauma operated on during one year. The cases are divided into three groups according to whether the main damage involved the anterior, posterior, or anterior segments. Of the 15 cases two thirds had a successful outcome. A penetrating injury and total retinal detachment with massive preretinal retraction were two features associated with poor results.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
