Comparative Study of Multi-endodiathermy Retinectomy Versus Relaxing Retinectomy for Retinal Re-detachment

April 20, 2015 updated by: Xiaofeng Lin, Sun Yat-sen University

Comparative Study of Multi-endodiathermy Retinectomy Versus Relaxing Retinectomy for Retinal Re-detachment in Silicone Oil Filled Eye

Previous pilot study has demonstrated that the novel multi-endodiathermy retinectomy is feasible, effective and safe for inferior retinal redetachments in the silicone oil-filled eyes of adults over a 3-month observation.

Here, the investigators conduct this randomized and multicenter clinical trial to compare the efficacy and safety between multi-endodiathermy retinectomy and relaxing retinectomy.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The relaxing retinectomy is a useful surgery for retinal re-detachment in eyes with silicone oil filled. However, it has some obvious disadvantages such as the cut of the normal retina surrounding, leaving a large area of retinal deficiency and significant exposure of retinal pigment epithelium and choroid membranes.

We proposed a novel multi-endodiathermy retinectomy as a potential surgery. A pilot study has demonstrated that the novel multi-endodiathermy retinectomy is feasible, effective and safe for inferior retinal redetachments in the silicone oil-filled eyes of adults over a 3-month observation.

Here, the investigators conduct this randomized and multicenter clinical trial to compare the efficacy and safety between multi-endodiathermy retinectomy and relaxing retinectomy.
