Risk factors of proliferative vitreoretinopathy

Abstract

Presented is the personal material comprising cases treated surgically for primary retinal detachment; analysed is the causal connection between postoperatively occurring proliferative vitreoretinopathy and the risk factors. The comparison of personal results with results of the other authors shows that in case of diagnosis of risk factors the reduction of the surgical trauma reduces the threat of proliferative vitreoretinopathy after operation of retinal detachment.
