| Study design | Retrospective interventional case series in two academic centers. |
| Secondary study design | Non randomised controlled trial |
| Scientific title | The learning curve for primary vitrectomy without scleral buckling for pseudophakic retinal detachment |
| Study objectives | Pseudophakic retinal detachment is a complication in patients after cataract surgery. Although rare, this represents a high number of patients since the number of cataract extractions is on the rise (500,000 in France). This complication may lead to a severe loss of visual acuity. In this study we aim to evaluate the learning curve of junior surgeons in performing primary vitrectomy without scleral buckling for pseudophakic retinal detachment. |
| Ethics approval(s) | Ethics Committee for the Protection of Human Subjects in Biomedical Research, Bourgogne (Comité Consultatif de Protection des Personnes dans la Recherche Biomédicale de Bourgogne). Date of approval: 4 Marth 2004 (ref: 2004/19) |
| Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Pseudophakic retinal detachment |
| Intervention | Surgical procedure with pars plana vitrectomy under local anesthesia. Drainage of subretinal fluid through the retinal break or a retinotomy. External cryotherapy on the retinal tears. At the end of the procedure, air-gas exchange with inexpansible gas mixture. No scleral buckling added. |
| Intervention type | Other |
| Primary outcome measure(s) |
Reattachment rate with a single procedure at 6-month follow-up |
| Key secondary outcome measure(s) |
1. Number of final successes |
