Combined pars plana vitrectomy and lens management in complex vitreoretinal disease

Concurrent cataract and vitreoretinal disorders are relatively common. Additionally, a considerable number of phakic eyes develop visually significant cataract following pars plana vitrectomy. The ophthalmic literature is replete with reports of a combined procedure consisting of simultaneous cataract extraction, intraocular lens implantation, and pars plana vitrectomy to treat a wide range of vitreoretinal disorders and co-existing cataracts. Historical concerns of increased risk of complications with the combined procedure have been shown not to be clinically significant. The combined procedure offers the advantages of a single procedure, including faster recovery time and cost effectiveness. Earlier reports of the combined procedure describe pars plana lensectomy and extracapsular cataract extraction as techniques for cataract extraction. Currently, phacoemulsification with implantation of a foldable posterior intraocular lens implantation has become the preferred technique of cataract removal. With advances in instrumentation and surgical techniques, the combined procedure offers a safe and effective way to manage concurrent cataract and complex vitreoretinal disease.     

Extracapsular cataract extraction and implantation in the capsular sac during vitrectomy in diabetics]

Removal of the lens is often performed during pars plana vitrectomy for complications of proliferative diabetic retinopathy, but correction of aphakia often remains unsatisfactory. Some authors have reported posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation during pars plana vitrectomy in diabetic patients who presented with coexisting cataract and vitreoretinal complications from proliferative diabetic retinopathy. Some patients were operated by pars plana lensectomy and vitrectomy followed by posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation in the ciliary sulcus, others by extracapsular extraction, posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation in the ciliary sulcus, and pars plana vitrectomy. Other authors have described phacoemulsification through the limbus, pars plana vitrectomy and implantation in the capsular bag in one operation in various indications, including complications of proliferative diabetic retinopathy. We inserted a posterior chamber intraocular lens into the capsular bag in 18 eyes of 16 patients with complications of proliferative diabetic retinopathy after extracapsular cataract extraction and pars plana vitrectomy in a single session. A standard extracapsular cataract extraction was performed before pars plana vitrectomy. Sufficient anterior capsule was left in place in order to facilitate implantation in the capsular bag after pars plana vitrectomy. The anterior chamber was filled with sodium hyaluronate in order to maintain anterior chamber depth, corneal clarity, and good mydriasis during the continuation of the procedure. A standard three port pars plana vitrectomy was performed in all cases. After closure of superior sclerotomies, superior corneal incision was partially reopened, an intraocular lens specifically designed for the capsular bag with an optic size of 7 mm was inserted, and the corneal incision was closed with interrupted 10/0 sutures.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)     

Combined pars plana vitrectomy and cataract surgery: outcome of phacoemulsification versus manual extracapsular cataract extraction through a sclerocorneal tunnel.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: To compare the results of combined pars plana vitrectomy and cataract extraction with intraocular lens implantation by phacoemulsification versus manual extracapsular cataract extraction through a sclerocorneal tunnel. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Retrospective chart review of all patients who underwent combined pars plana vitrectomy with intraocular lens implantation and phacoemulsification or extracapsular cataract extraction through a sclerocorneal tunnel between March 1992 and July 2002. RESULTS: Fifty-four eyes of 51 patients were evaluated. Mean age was 69.68 +/- 9.11 years, and mean follow-up was 9 months. Phacoemulsification was performed in 35 cases (64%) and manual extraction in 19 cases (36%). Visual acuity improved from mean logarithm of the minimal angle of resolution 1.69 +/- 0.54 before surgery to 1.22 +/- 0.76 after surgery. There was a greater improvement of visual acuity in the phacoemulsification group (0.59 +/- 0.67) than in the extracapsular cataract extraction group (0.22 +/- 0.68) (P = .06). Final visual acuity was correlated to the vitreoretinal pathology. Ultrasound biomicroscopy showed well-positioned foldable or rigid intraocular lens in the bag or in the sulcus. CONCLUSION: Combined cataract extraction by phacoemulsification or extracapsular cataract extraction through sclerocorneal tunnel and pars plana vitrectomy are safe and effective procedures.     

Comparison of phacoemulsification and planned extracapsular cataract extraction in combined pars plana vitrectomy and posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: To compare two kinds of cataract removal methods combined with pars plana vitrectomy and posterior chamber intraocular lens (PC-IOL) implantation. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Cataract removal was performed by either phacoemulsification or extracapsular cataract extraction (ECCE) and followed by pars plana vitrectomy and PC-IOL implantation. Between May 1996 and June 2001, 31 and 22 patients with cataract and vitreoretinal disease were treated by phacoemulsification and ECCE, respectively, combined with pars plana vitrectomy and PC-IOL implantation. Preoperative demographic data and postoperative vision, astigmatism change, and complications were analyzed. RESULTS: The mean age of patients in the phacoemulsification and ECCE groups was 62.5 and 63.4 years, respectively. Diabetes mellitus was the most common underlying disease resulting in vitreous opacity. Vision improved in 87.1% of the phacoemulsification group and 59.1% of the ECCE group. The change in astigmatism after surgery was 0.92+/-1.08 D (P = .001) in the ECCE group and 0.25+/-0.74 D (P = .087) in the phacoemulsification group. There were fewer postoperative complications, including recurrent vitreous hemorrhage, increased intraocular pressure, and iris changes in the phacoemulsification group than in the ECCE group. CONCLUSION: Phacoemulsification and ECCE combined with pars plana vitrectomy and PC-IOL implantation are both effective surgical methods to achieve better and more rapid visual rehabilitation for patients with combined cataract and vitreoretinal disease. In this study, phacoemulsification combined with pars plana vitrectomy and PC-IOL implantation resulted in greater improvement in vision, less astigmatism change, and fewer postoperative complications.     

Combined cataract surgery and vitrectomy for recurrent retinal detachment

PURPOSE: To report our experience with combined cataract surgery, posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation, and pars plana vitrectomy in the management of recurrent retinal detachment (RD) and visually significant cataract. METHODS: Retrospective chart review of patients with cataract and recurrent RD who underwent combined cataract extraction, posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation, and pars plana vitrectomy between January 1991 and September 1998 at the Bascom Palmer Eye Institute. Sixteen eyes were included. All eyes had visually significant cataract and had undergone primary repair of the RD with encircling scleral buckle; eight eyes also had undergone pars plana vitrectomy during the primary repair. The technique of cataract extraction included phacoemulsification (10 eyes), extracapsular cataract extraction (5 eyes), and pars plana lensectomy (1 eye). All eyes underwent pars plana vitrectomy, membrane peeling, fluid-air exchange, endolaser treatment, and placement of a retinal tamponade. Perfluoropropane (C3F8) gas was used in 14 eyes, and silicone oil was placed in two eyes. RESULTS: The postoperative follow-up interval ranged from 4 to 64 months (mean, 16 months). Preoperative visual acuity ranged from 20/60 to hand motions and was better than 20/200 in 3 (19%) eyes. Postoperatively, 9 (56%) eyes improved to better than 20/200. Anatomic success was achieved after the initial reoperation in 13 (81 %) eyes. With further surgery, the overall success rate was 94%. CONCLUSIONS: Combined cataract surgery, posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation, and pars plana vitrectomy in selected patients with cataract and recurrent RD was successful in improving visual acuity and achieving retinal reattachment in most of these reoperated patients.     

Cataract surgery results after pars plana vitrectomy

Continuous refinements in vitreoretinal surgical techniques and an increasing number of posterior segment disorders are being successfully managed with pars plana vitrectomy (PPV). This has resulted in an increase in the number of vitrectomized eyes seen by cataract surgeons. Cataract surgery in previously vitrectomized eyes has been reported to be more challenging than in eyes without previous vitrectomy. Special considerations and precautions are often required before, during, and after the surgery to successfully address these challenges. Several studies have reported that phacoemulsification with intraocular lens implantation after PPV is a relatively safe procedure that can improve visual acuity and quality of life. The extent of visual improvement may be limited only by retinal comorbidity.     

Evaluation of results of combined pars plana vitrectomy and cataract removal

PURPOSE: Cataract often coexists with pathologies of the vitreous body. Moreover, after several months after vitrectomy, the lens becomes opaque. Lens opacities interfere with appropriate visualisation of the vitreous chamber and the eye fundus, which makes performing vitreoretinal procedures difficult. For this reason, in such patients, a combined procedure of pars plana vitrectomy and cataract extraction can be considered. This is retrospective analysis of the indications and results of combined cataract extraction and pars plana vitrectomy. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The data were based on case histories of patients who underwent combined cataract extraction and pars plana vitrectomy in the years 2001 - 2003, in the Department of Ophthalmology, Medical University of Lód?. The evaluated data included: diagnosis, pre- and postoperative best corrected visual acuity, intraocular pressure, pre- and postoperative state of the anterior and posterior segment of the eye and the employed surgical techniques. RESULTS: The examined group consisted of 40 patients (40 eyes), including 20 men and 20 women, at the age from 13 to 76 years old (mean 55.7, SD+/-14.6). The indications to vitrectomy were: vitreous haemorrhage, retinal detachment, vitreoretinal proliferations, intraocular foreign body, persistent hyaloid artery and endophthalmitis. Phacoemulsification was the most often used method of cataract extraction (34 people, 85%). In three patients cataract was removed by classical extracapsular cataract extraction (ECCE), and in further 3 patients bimanual aspiration was used. In terms of anatomical results, therapeutic success was achieved in 35 cases (87,5%). Improvement of visual acuity was observed in 28 people (70%), unchanged visual acuity in 10 people (25%), and a decrease in visual acuity in 2 patients (5%). Improvement of visual acuity at least 2 lines on Snellen's chart was achieved in 20 patients (50%).     

Postoperative anterior chamber inflammation after posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation concurrent with pars plana vitrectomy and lensectomy]

The authors compared postoperative anterior chamber inflammation of triple procedure; diabetic pars plana vitrectomy, lensectomy with anterior capsule left intact and posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation anterior to anterior capsule, to those of various cataract surgeries with posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation and vitrectomies in diabetic retinopathy eyes. The inflammation was evaluated in terms of the incidence of inflammatory complications (fibrin reaction and posterior synechia of iris), and by periodical measurement of flare counts for postoperative 6 months using a laser flare-cell meter. The inflammation was more intense than those after the following 3 surgeries; phacoemulsification and in the bag intraocular lens implantation after continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis, extracapsular extraction and in the bag intraocular lens implantation after can opener capsulotomy, and vitrectomy alone. The inflammation, however, was less intense compared with that of another method of triple procedure; pars plana vitrectomy, phacoemulsification and in the bag intraocular lens implantation after continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis or can opener capsulotomy, and development of posterior synechia was rarely observed.     

Combined cataract and macular disease surgery

Cataract is frequently associated with vitreoretinal diseases. Moreover, cataract is one of the most frequent complications of pars plana vitrectomy. In cases of cataract associated with vitreoretinal diseases such as age-related macular degeneration complicated by massive submacular hemorrhage or macular hole, combined phacoemulsification and vitrectomy surgery in one session can be considered. Therefore, phacoemulsification performed before the pars plana vitrectomy for epiretinal membrane seems to be the best solution when preoperative cataract is present. In all cases, phacoemulsification with a corneal incision, insertion of a posterior capsule intraocular lens with a large diameter and a large anterior capsulorhexis are necessary.     

Results of combined vitreoretinal surgery and phacoemulsification with intraocular lens implantation

Purpose : To assess the outcome and complications after combined pars plana vitrectomy and phacoemulsification with intraocular lens implantation in patients with concomitant cataract and vitreoretinal abnormalities. Methods : This retrospective study consisted of 113 eyes of 109 patients with various vitreoretinal abnormalities and visually significant cataract. Vitreoretinal surgery was combined with clear corneal phacoemulsification and intra‐ocular implantation. Results : The combined surgery resulted in minimal complications, and postoperative visual acuity was improved in 83 eyes (71.6%). Visual acuity was improved by two or more lines in 26 eyes (66.6%) with proliferative diabetic retinopathy, 22 eyes (73%) with proliferative vitreoretinopathy, eight eyes (30.7%) with macular abnormalities, four eyes (55.5%) with trauma and two eyes (40%) with retinal vein occlusion. Conclusions : The combined vitreoretinal surgery and phacoemulsification with intraocular lens implantation was safe and effective in treating vitreoretinal abnormalities coexisting with cataract. Combined surgery is recommended for all patients having simultaneous vitreoretinal pathological changes and cataract. The addition of phacoemulsification does not prolong vitreoretinal operative time notably nor increase the risk of intraoperative and post‐operative complications significantly.     

Preventing recurrent opacification of the visual pathway after pediatric cataract surgery

PURPOSE: To determine the rate of secondary opacification of the visual pathway following pediatric cataract surgery in children between the ages of 10 months and 7 years. METHODS: The medical records of children less than 7 years old who underwent lens aspiration, posterior chamber intraocular lens (IOL) implantation, primary pars plana posterior capsulectomy, and anterior vitrectomy were reviewed retrospectively. Twenty-six eyes in 19 children were included in the study. All procedures were performed by an anterior segment surgeon and a vitreoretinal surgeon. Main outcome measures were the prevalence of re-opacification of the visual pathway and of early postoperative complications. RESULTS: The visual pathway remained clear in 25 of 26 eyes (96%) after pediatric cataract surgery combined with primary pars plana posterior capsulectomy and anterior vitrectomy. The mean age at surgery was 46 +/- 23 months (+/-SD). Secondary opacification of the visual pathway occurred in one eye (4%), requiring another surgical procedure. At last follow-up (mean, 26 months; range, 6 to 79 months), the visual pathway was clear in all 26 eyes (100%). No cases of clinically significant IOL displacement or of retinal detachment were noted. CONCLUSIONS: For children undergoing pediatric cataract surgery between the ages of 10 months and 7 years, IOL implantation combined with primary pars plana posterior capsulectomy and anterior vitrectomy is effective in preventing re-opacification of the visual pathway.     

Posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation during diabetic pars plana vitrectomy

Combined cataract removal, posterior chamber intraocular lens (PC IOL) implantation, and pars plana vitrectomy were performed in 15 diabetic patients who presented with coexisting cataract and vitreoretinal complications from proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR). Posterior chamber IOLs were placed anterior to the anterior lens capsule after pars plana lensectomy and vitrectomy in nine eyes, whereas extracapsular cataract extraction (ECCE) with PC IOL placement was performed before vitrectomy in six eyes. Panretinal laser endophotocoagulation was applied in 13 of the 15 eyes as an important part of the operative procedure. Because of inactive diabetic retinopathy or satisfactory preoperative panretinal photocoagulation, 2 of the 15 eyes did not receive laser endophotocoagulation. Visual acuity was improved in 12 eyes and was similar to preoperative vision in 3 eyes. After a minimum of 6 months and a maximum of 28 months of follow-up, the visual results are the following: 20/40 or better (4 eyes), 20/50 to 20/200 (5 eyes), 20/400 to 5/200 (5 eyes), and hand motions (1 eye). Although 5 of the 15 eyes required secondary vitreoretinal procedures, neovascular glaucoma and complications attributable to the IOL did not occur. A recurrent postoperative retinal detachment (RD) developed with subsequent hypotony and rubeosis iridis in 1 of the 15 eyes.     

Pars plana vitrectomy during cataract surgery for prevention of aqueous misdirection in high-risk fellow eyes

PURPOSE: To report the use of pars plana vitrectomy as a prophylactic measure during cataract surgery for prevention of aqueous misdirection in high-risk fellow eyes. METHODS: Chart review of two patients with severe aqueous misdirection in their first eye at the time of cataract surgery that only responded to pars plana vitrectomy. RESULTS: In both patients, cataract extraction with posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation was initially performed after pars plana vitrectomy, with the creation of hyaloido-capsulo-iridotomy to establish a communication between the vitreous cavity and the anterior chamber. CONCLUSION: Pars plana vitrectomy as a prophylactic measure during cataract surgery may have a beneficial role in fellow eyes at high risk for developing aqueous misdirection.     

Combined clear corneal phacoemulsification, vitreoretinal surgery, and intraocular lens implantation.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the technical feasibility, outcome, and incidence of complications after combined clear corneal phacoemulsification with intraocular lens (IOL) implantation and vitreoretinal surgery. SETTING: Department of Ophthalmology, Giessen, Germany. METHODS: The results of combined cataract and vitreoretinal surgery in 38 eyes (36 patients) were retrospectively analyzed. All patients had clinically significant lens opacities and vitreoretinal pathology requiring pars plana vitrectomy. Thirty-seven IOLs were implanted in the capsular bag, and 1 was sulcus fixated. RESULTS: Postoperatively, visual acuity improved in 20 eyes (52.6%), was unchanged in 16 (42.1%), and was worse in 2 (5.3%). Postoperative complications consisted of anterior chamber fibrin exudation (3 eyes), hyphema (2 eyes), vitreous hemorrhage (1 eye), posterior capsule opacification (16 eyes), neovascular glaucoma (2 eyes), proliferative vitreoretinopathy and redetachment (1 eye), and retinal redetachment after silicone oil removal (1 eye). CONCLUSION: Compared with 2 separate operations in patients with significant lens opacities and vitreoretinal pathology, combined cataract and vitreoretinal surgery provided more rapid visual rehabilitation. The visual outcome and complications depended primarily on underlying posterior segment pathology and were not related to the combined procedure technique.     

Pars plana lensectomy by ultrasonic fragmentation: I. A versatile and simple technique for cataract removal

A comparison has been made between pars plana lensectomy and intracapsular cataract extraction. Pars plana lensectomy has been shown to have many advantages. It is applicable to any age, while intracapsular cataract extraction is restricted to patients over 30 years old. It can be used in any type of cataract, whereas intracapsular cataract extraction is restricted to senile cataracts. It requires less patient preparation, less instrumentation, and less surgical dexterity than does intracapsular cataract extraction. It allows intraocular examination at the time of surgery. It can be combined with other surgical procedures (intraocular lens implantation, vitrectomy, cryoretinopexy, scleral buckle, etc.). It leaves the eyes in better condition postoperatively with fewer postoperative complications, and it gives good or better visual results than intracapsular cataract extraction.It is now unnecessary to learn (and teach) multiple techniques to handle different ages and types of cataracts since pars plana lensectomy manages them all with fewer complications.     

Combined phacoemulsification, vitrectomy, foreign-body extraction, and intraocular lens implantation

PURPOSE: To assess the outcome of simultaneous phacoemulsification, pars plana vitrectomy, intraocular foreign-body extraction, and intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. SETTING: SSK Ankara Eye Hospital, Department of Vitreoretinal Surgery, Ankara, Turkey. METHODS: Seventeen patients with corneal perforation, intraocular foreign body, vitreous hemorrhage, and lens opacity had simultaneous clear corneal phacoemulsification, pars plana vitrectomy, intraocular foreign-body extraction, and IOL implantation. RESULTS: Postoperative complications included massive retinal fibrosis in 2 patients, retinal detachment in 1, and cilioretinal artery occlusion in 1. At a mean follow-up of 15.2 months, best corrected visual acuity improved in the remaining 13 eyes (76%). The IOL was stable in all cases. CONCLUSION: Combined phacoemulsification with IOL implantation and vitreoretinal surgery was safe in selected cases of penetrating ocular trauma resulting from an intraocular foreign body.     

Combining phacoemulsification and vitrectomy in patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Modern vitrectomy and cataract extraction techniques have reached levels not imagined 20 years ago. Combining pars plana vitrectomy with phacoemulsification and posterior capsulectomy now has the potential to condense three separate procedures: pars plana vitrectomy, phacoemulsification, and YAG capsulotomy into one procedure. Interest in combined surgery is increasing as reports in the literature documenting its safety and efficacy continue to be published. The purpose of this article is to review the recent trends in combined surgery. RECENT FINDINGS: Studies have shown that when comparing sequential surgery to combined surgery, there is no significant difference in visual outcome. Multiple reports confirm the safety of combined surgery in patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy. SUMMARY: In select patients with diabetes, combining vitrectomy with phacoemulsification and posterior capsulectomy allows patients who often have bilateral vitreoretinal disease to come to a stable postoperative vision in the eye requiring vitreous surgery much earlier than three separate procedures spread out over months or years.     

Lensectomy-vitrectomy indications and techniques in cataract surgery

Lensectomy-vitrectomy is the removal of the crystalline lens through a transscleral retrociliary incision (usually the pars plana) under clinical conditions in which the vitreous gel has to be partially or totally removed. It was designed in the early 1970s at the onset of modern vitreous surgery. The vitreous cutter was used to remove the lens and the vitreous (lensectomy as vitrectomy). With the development of small incision cataract surgery, foldable IOL, the term lensectomy-vitrectomy also applies to separate incisions in one procedure combining lens and vitreous surgery. With this in mind, it covers several very different situations from neonatal congenital cataracts to adult or senile-associated diseases. This type of surgery is widely accepted, and the main controversy is about the consequences of neonatal surgery and the age of IOL implantation in uni- or bilateral congenital cataracts. My personal work with laser flare and cellmetry demonstrates that pars plana vitrectomy alone creates very little trauma to the blood-aqueous barrier, as can be checked by the anterior chamber level of proteins (ie, flare). The postoperative flare in pars plana vitrectomy alone is very close to the preoperative level. Therefore, the association of pars plana vitrectomy and lens surgery should not be more traumatizing to the eye than lens surgery alone. This review will first report the consequences of neonatal lensectomy-vitrectomy to the eye. Subsequent indications for surgery and implantation will be discussed as well as special indications and complications in congenital cataracts, dislocated nucleus in cataract operation, cataract and associated vitreoretinal disorders in diabetes, and giant retinal tears and removal of the lens during vitrectomy.     

Combined surgery, phacoemulsification, implantation of intraocular lens and pars plana vitrectomy

PURPOSE: To evaluate the effectiveness, technical feasibility and incidence of complications after combining pars plana vitrectomy, phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The results of combined vitreoretinal and cataract surgery in 100 eyes of 96 patients were retrospectively and prospectively analyzed. The mean follow-up period was 8.4 months. All patients had clinically significant lens opacities and vitreoretinal pathology requiring pars plana vitrectomy. Indications for vitreoretinal surgery included: persistent vitreous haemorrhage (28 eyes), vitreous hemorrhage combined with tractional retinal detachment (50 eyes), tractional retinal detachment without vitreous haemorrhage caused by proliferative diabetic retinopathy (7 eyes), rheumatogenous retinal detachment with proliferative vitreoretinopathy (10 eyes) and dislocated crystalline lens in the vitreous (5 eyes). RESULTS: Postoperatively, best corrected visual acuity improved in 81 eyes (81%)- by two lines or more in 31 eyes (31%) - by less than two lines in 50 eyes (50%). In 14 eyes (14%) visual acuity was unchanged and was worse in 5 cases (5%). Postoperative complications included fibrin reaction, posterior synechias of the iris, vitreous hemorrhage, neovascular glaucoma, posterior capsule opacification, redetachment of retina. CONCLUSIONS: Our cases confirm previous study, that performing phacoemulsification, IOL implantation and vitrectomy in one operation is safe and allows visual recovery with good technical results.
