This video shows a challenging case that highlights the benefits of using triamcinolone acetonide (TA) during vitrectomy. The case was particularly interesting because the posterior hyaloid remained attached to the macula, and the vitreous cutter alone couldn’t create a posterior vitreous detachment (PVD). TA proved invaluable in visualizing the vitreous and assessing the adhesion. The strategic use of TA in vitrectomy cases like this underscores its value in ensuring better visualization and manipulation of the vitreous. This is crucial when conventional techniques aren’t enough to create a PVD.
To all the viewers out there—do you have any tips or preferred techniques for managing cases where the posterior hyaloid resists detachment?
