TL;DR

Adjunctive intravitreal methotrexate markedly improves morphological and functional outcomes in PVR-associated RRD, resulting in higher single-surgery success rates, reduced need for reoperation, and fewer postoperative sequelae.

Factors Associated With Single-Surgery Anatomical Success After Pars Plana Vitrectomy in Inferior Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment.

Endolaser retinopexy was associated with significantly higher anatomical success than cryotherapy, with combined treatment yielding intermediate outcomes in PPV for inferior RRD, and no significant association was observed between anatomical outcome and tamponade choice or PFCL use.

A Novel Surgical Technique for Advanced ERM: Vitrectomy Combined with Perifoveal Centrifugal Massage.

Vitrectomy combined with perifoveal centrifugal massage was associated with favorable anatomical and functional recovery in stage 4 EIFL-ERM, and this adjunctive technique may facilitate earlier stage regression and represents a potential refinement to standard iERM surgery.
