Abstract |
PURPOSE To assess the prognostic factors associated with anatomical success of scleral buckle (SB) for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) in high myopia patients. METHODS: The medical records of RRD in highly myopic eyes treated with SB from January 2009 to December 2013 were reviewed retrospectively. Cases with history of intraocular surgery including phacoemulsification and vitrectomy were excluded. Correlations between anatomical success and the parameters of age, sex, preoperative visual acuity, axial length, presence of large tear, presence of horseshoe tear, the number of tears, involved fovea, and extent of detachment were analyzed. RESULTS: This study included 80 eyes of 80 patients. Average age and axial length were 32.3 ± 13.4 and 26.753 ± 0.961 mm, respectively. Sixty-nine eyes (86.3%) were reattached following primary surgery. Univariate analysis revealed that age (p = 0.011), presence of large tear (p = 0.002), and presence of horseshoe tear (p = 0.044) were correlated with anatomical success after SB. Based on multivariate logistic regression analysis, age was the sole independent prognostic factor (odds ratio = 1.086, 95% confidence interval = 1.022~1.154, p = 0.004). CONCLUSIONS: A younger age is associated with a higher rate of primary anatomical success of SB for RRD in highly myopic eyes. In young, highly myopic patients with RRD, SB should be considered as the primary procedure. |
