Purpose:

To evaluate anatomical and functional outcomes of pneumatic retinopexy for primary repair of rhegmatogenous retinal detachments, and to determine demographic and ocular risk factors for failure of the procedure.

Methods:

A chart review on 97 eyes of 97 patients who had undergone pneumatic retinopexy as the initial procedure for unilateral recent primary retinal detachments with causative break(s) in the superior 2/3rd of the retina. After injection of 0.35-0.60 mL of sulfur hexafluoride, 6 hours face down positioning, and the steamroller maneuver, the patient`s head position was changed so that the gas could efficiently tamponade the retinal break(s). Pre- and post-gas injection laser photocoagulation of break(s) and 360º peripheral retina was applied.

Results:

Seventy-two male and 25 female patients were included in this study. The single-operation success rate was 82.5%. Presence of proliferative vitreoretinopathy (Odds ratio: 58.7, 95% CI: 7.8 to 443.5) and delay between initial symptoms and pneumatic retinopexy (Odds ratio: 1.21 per each additional day, 95% CI: 1.07 to 1.37) were the only independent predictors for the failure.

Conclusion:

With proper selection of cases, pneumatic retinopexy is a good surgical option for primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachments with acceptable success rate, minimal discomfort to the patient, and minimal surgical risks.
