ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of combined phacoemulsification, pars plana vitrectomy and IOL implantation in non-diabetic patients, and to compare the clinical results with that of sequential surgery.METHODS:
The results of combined phacoemulsification, pars plana vitrectomy and IOL implantation in 15 patients (15 eyes) were retrospectively analyzed. Major outcome measures were pre-and postoperative best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), postoperative BCVA 0.5 or better, and postoperative complications. Comparison between the combined surgery in 12 eyes and sequential surgery in 9 eyes were also analyzed for the same outcome measures.RESULTS:
Of the 15 eyes postoperative visual acuity improved in 14 eyes (93.3%), and BCVA 0.5 or better was achieved in 6 eyes (40.0%). Of the 15 eyes postoperative complications consisted of transient IOP increase in 8 eyes (53.3%), hyphema in 4 eyes (26.7%), retinal detachment in 3 eyes (20.0%), vitreous hemorrhage in 2 eyes (13.3%), anterior chamber fibrin exudation in 2 eyes (13.3) and posterior capsular rupture in 2 eyes (13.3%). The difference in complications between the combined surgery group and sequential surgery group were not statistically significant.CONCLUSION:
Combined surgery in selected patients is a safe and effective approach, and the outcome is comparable to sequential surgery.Palavras-chave
