About this study

Purpose:

To assess the functional and anatomical outcome of primary vitrectomy without scleral buckling for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) in highly myopic eyes with axial length over 30 mm.

Methods Design: Retrospective single center series. Setting: University Hospital. Patients: High myopic patients treated with primary vitrectomy without scleral buckling for a rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.

Outcome measures: Anatomical success rate with complete reattachment of the retina without silicone oil tamponade and postoperative best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA).

Being tested
Pars plana vitrectomy with gas tamponade
Keywords
Retinal detachment, high myopia, macular hole, axial length, Scleral buckling, Vitrectomy, Visual acuity, fundus examination results

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Pars plana vitrectomy with gas tamponadeProcedure or surgery

    A standard three-port 20 Gauge vitrectomy under a wide-angle-viewing contact lens was performed. Peripheral vitreous shaving was completed under slit-lamp illumination without contact lens by gentle scleral indentation. Posterior hyaloid detachment was checked and completed if necessary without dye. The epiretinal membrane removal or internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling was performed if necessary. In general this latter procedure was not conducted for RD secondary to peripheral retinal tears without any sign of PVR or ERM but was done in almost all cases related to posterior break.

    Subretinal fluid was aspirated through the retinal tear, the MH, the PVT or through a retinotomy to obtain a complete peroperative retinal reattachment.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Assessing the functional and anatomical outcome of primary vitrectomy in Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment in highly myopic eyes

    To assess by visual acuity measurements, fundus ophthalmoscopy and OCT scans the functional and anatomical outcome in patients with higly myopic eyes whom we performed primary vitrectomy without scleral buckling for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD)in comparison to standard surgical technics wich consist on scleral buckling and pars plana vitrectomy with fluid gas exchange.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Intraocular Pressure, and Postoperative Complications, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Dijon at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Nov 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Assessing the functional and anatomical outcome of primary vitrectomy in Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment in highly myopic eyes. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 Nov 2011.
