PURPOSE: To introduce a pneumatic retinopexy positioning for the management of @entity1713 from @entity989 after failed scleral buckle. DESIGN: Retrospective review of interventional consecutive case series. @entity1 : Seventeen eyes of 17 @entity1 followed up from January 1993 to February 2005. INTERVENTION: Internal tamponade was achieved by 10 degrees Trendelenburg positioning, 10 degrees neck hyperextension, 10 degrees ocular supraduction and a large intravitreal gas bubble. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Visual acuity, intraocular pressure, and retinal flattening were evaluated. RESULTS: All @entity1 tolerated the procedure. Retinal reattachment was maintained in 15 of 17 @entity1 (88.2%) followed up for a mean of 2.8 years (range, 0.1-11.5 years). Two @entity1 experienced redetachment after 5 days and 4 months respectively. Six patients required antiglaucoma medications during the technique. CONCLUSIONS: Graduated body-neck-eye tilt allowed retinal reattachment in most eyes with @entity1713 after failed scleral buckle.
