Purpose. Retinal redetachment of silicone oil-filled eyes continues to be a
frustrating condition that typically requires retinectomy. We proposed radial
retinotomy as a potentially less invasive surgery. Here, we preliminarily
explored its feasibility, efficacy, and safety. Methods. Totally 9 eyes of 9
consecutive patients were included in a prospective noncomparative trial. A
series of retinotomies were created by endodiathermy in a radial pattern to relax
the foreshortened retina. The eye was refilled with fresh silicone oil. The
treated eyes were examined via visual acuity (VA) tests, tonometry, slit-lamp
microscopy, and fundus photography during a 6-month observation period. Results.
The procedure was completed in an average of 28 minutes from silicone oil removal
to fresh silicone oil placement. Fundus photography demonstrated that 7 of the 9
eyes (78%) exhibited retinal reattachment. On average, VA was significantly
improved within the first 2 weeks (P = 0.02) and remained stable for the
following 6 months. The change in intraocular pressure was not significant (P =
0.76), and no adverse event was observed (0%). Conclusion. Radial retinotomies
with endodiathermy were shown to be feasible, effective, and safe in selected
cases of inferior contracted retina without vitreous base fibrosis over a 6-month
observation period. This trial is registered with NCT02201706.
