However, gas tamponade inflates at high altitudes, causing significant complications. Silicone oil (SO) tamponade volume is unaffected by atmospheric pressure and may be used in patients who live or must undertake travel at high altitudes.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Purpose To determine the anatomical and functional outcomes after pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with SO tamponade in primary uncomplicated RRD.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Methods Twenty-eight consecutive cases of patients operated between January 2017 and December 2022 in Jules-Gonin University Eye Hospital in Lausanne were included in this retrospective study. All patients had a follow-up of at least 3 months after SO removal.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Results Primary reattachment was achieved in all 28 eyes. Mean follow-up was 17.2 months (range: 3\u200a\u2013\u200a51 months) after SO removal. Mean age at the time of intervention was 60 years (range: 21\u200a\u2013\u200a80 years). Vision was stabilized or improved in 27 eyes (96%). One patient demonstrated a slight visual acuity decrease due to cataract formation at the last follow-up. In all patients, SO was removed 2 to 5 months after primary repair. In 14 of the 21 phakic patients, concomitant cataract surgery was performed. No surgical complications were encountered. Postoperatively, 5 (18%) patients had ocular hypertension, presumably steroid related, that was successfully controlled with topical treatment.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Conclusion PPV with SO injection seems to be a safe and efficient surgical approach in the treatment of primary uncomplicated RRD in patients living at high altitudes and was associated with good anatomical and functional outcome in our series. However, the need for a follow-up surgery to remove SO should be weighed in these cases.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/a-2233-0971","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,23]],"date-time":"2024-04-23T22:51:25Z","timestamp":1713912685000},"page":"472-476","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Silicone Oil Tamponade for Therapy of Primary Retinal Detachment in Patients Who Live at High Altitudes"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"241","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1183-8736","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tim","family":"Beltraminelli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, University of Lausanne, Jules-Gonin Eye Hospital, Lausanne, Switzerland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Quentin","family":"Hessler","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, University of Lausanne, Jules-Gonin Eye Hospital, Lausanne, Switzerland"},{"name":"School of Medicine, University of Lausanne, Faculty of Biology and Medicine, Lausanne, Switzerland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Theodor","family":"Stappler","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Retina Surgery, University of Lausanne, Jules-Gonin Eye Hospital, Lausanne, Switzerland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jelena","family":"Potic","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Retina Surgery, University of Lausanne, Jules-Gonin Eye Hospital, Lausanne, Switzerland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Thomas J.","family":"Wolfensberger","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, University of Lausanne, Jules-Gonin Eye Hospital, Lausanne, Switzerland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Lazaros","family":"Konstantinidis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Vitreoretinal, University of Lausanne, Jules-Gonin Eye Hospital, Lausanne, Switzerland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,23]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","first-page":"0710","article-title":"Retinal detachment","volume":"2014","author":"D Steel","year":"2014","journal-title":"BMJ Clin Evid"},{"key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"540","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1755-3768.2007.00888.x","article-title":"Primary vitrectomy versus conventional retinal detachment surgery in phakic rhegmatogenous retinal detachment","volume":"85","author":"R V Azad","year":"2007","journal-title":"Acta Ophthalmol Scand"},{"key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"669","DOI":"10.1038\/sj.eye.6703105","article-title":"Trends and outcomes of treatment for primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment: a 9-year nationwide population-based study","volume":"23","author":"J D Ho","year":"2009","journal-title":"Eye (Lond)"},{"key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"255","DOI":"10.1097\/ICU.0b013e32835f8e6b","article-title":"Update on retinal detachment surgery","volume":"24","author":"S G Schwartz","year":"2013","journal-title":"Curr Opin Ophthalmol"},{"key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"546","DOI":"10.1136\/bjo.85.5.546","article-title":"Primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment: 20 years of change","volume":"85","author":"M Minihan","year":"2001","journal-title":"Br J Ophthalmol"},{"volume-title":"Scleral Buckling.
