Intrusion of Dacron Sutures and A Recurrent Vitreous Hemorrhage: Rare Complication of Scleral Buckle
We present a case of intrusion of a Dacron suture 8 years after scleral buckling surgery. Though rare, scleral buckle has to be removed if it is associated with complications like intrusion or extrusion, infection, or anterior segment ischemia. In this report we highlight a case of intrusion of Dacr...

| description | We present a case of intrusion of a Dacron suture 8 years after scleral buckling surgery. Though rare, scleral buckle has to be removed if it is associated with complications like intrusion or extrusion, infection, or anterior segment ischemia. In this report we highlight a case of intrusion of Dacron sutures and high buckle indent leading to retinal ischemia, neovascularization and recurrent vitreous hemorrhage. We managed this case by buckle removal but we could not remove the subretinal Dacron sutures. |
