Download or read book Practical Handbook for Small Gauge Vitrectomy written by Ulrich Spandau and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-08-22 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since publication of the first edition of this book in 2012 vitreoretinal surgery has marched with huge steps forward. In 2012 23G was standard, today 25G and 27G are the most commonly used gauge sizes for vitrectomy. In 2012 the cutting rate was 5.000 cuts/min and today with the development of a novel vitreous cutter the cutting rate has increased to 16.000 cuts/min. The advent of 25G/27G made the instruments smaller and surgery less traumatic. Practical Handbook for Small-Gauge Vitrectomy: A Step-By-Step Introduction to Surgical Techniques, 2ndEdition focuses on these new developments and features new chapters on PVR detachment, intraocular tumour, macular translocation, sub macular hemorrhages and ocular trauma. The surgeries are demonstrated step-by-step and the material is shown in detail and videos visualize the surgery.This book will serve as an immensely useful guide for all surgeons who are intending to make use of this exciting and increasingly used technique.

Download or read book 27 Gauge Vitrectomy written by Mitrofanis Pavlidis and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-10-01 with total page 463 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides step-by-step instructions on how to operate with 27G instrumentation in a wide range of surgical indications, including vitreous floaters, macular holes, dropped nucleus, retinal detachment, diabetic retinopathy, submacular hemorrhage, retinopathy of prematurity and much trauma. All surgeries are approached in cookbook fashion, with initial coverage of the “ingredients” (devices and instruments) and then meticulous description of preparation and performance with supporting photographs, drawings and videos. In addition, the differences and benefits in comparison with 23G and 25G vitrectomy are highlighted. Small-gauge vitrectomy has radically changed the ways in which vitrectomy is performed. 27G vitrectomy is the most recent and most exciting development in small-gauge vitrectomy. The healing time is faster but the small diameter prolongs the duration of surgery. This obstacle has been overcome with powerful new vitrectomy machines and revolutionary vitreous cutters with two cutting blades making 27G vitrectomy as fast as 25G. This new equipment has expanded the indications for 27G surgeries immensely from detachment surgery to retinopathy of prematurity and the advent of new instruments may make 27G the gold standard in the future. This book, written by authors with huge experience in 27G vitrectomy, will enable surgeons to fully exploit its advantages.

Download or read book The Pocket Guide to Vitreoretinal Surgery written by Jason N. Crosson and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "There are many vitreoretinal surgical textbooks around. These resources are certainly useful and have their place, but they tend to be very detailed and occasionally esoteric. If you are a resident interested in retina or an early retina fellow, and if you are anything like I was when I was getting started, what you really want is a "nuts and bolts" primer about retina surgery. You want to know the basics. That is the point of this short book: To give early fellows and residents interested in retina a simple, step-by-step guide to getting started with retina surgery. The primer is organized into short chapters that each center on major retina surgeries. We start with tips for basic vitrectomy and quickly move to basic concepts and tips for the major categories of procedures you will find yourself doing. This short book is not meant to be all-inclusive. As mentioned, there are many good textbooks that cover many of these procedures in painstaking detail. This primer should help you understand retina surgery conceptually and practically, such that you will be ready as a resident or vitreoretinal fellow for your first retina case. The language used in this pocket guide is intentionally informal. It's meant to be easy to understand and have the feel of a senior fellow teaching you the basic how-tos of retina surgery. You'll notice the first-person plural "we" used often throughout this book. I have written the majority of the text in this book, but I use "we" because each of the contributing authors (all of whom are experts in the field of retina surgery) have helped in formulating this book. The authors of this primer carry a combined 93 years of vitreoretinal surgical experience while having trained at institutions including Bascom Palmer Eye Institute, the University of Iowa, Wills Eye Hospital, and the University of Alabama at Birmingham. The result is an easy-to-understand text written in a conversational style that summarizes the wisdom of multiple experts in the field. One other point deserves mentioning at the outset. There are many different ways to approach each of the surgeries described in this pocket guide. Do not read this pocket guide as dogma. Instead, use the text to help you get started with your understanding of retina surgery--as a jumping-off point. We describe our most common approaches to various surgeries, and we try to mention other approaches along the way, but it is simply impossible in a "pocket guide" to cover every approach. Still, the varied training background and experience of each of the authors lends this primer a certain breadth-rather than one author's opinion, we offer the opinions of multiple surgeons who often approach similar scenarios quite differently. It is our hope that this pocket guide makes a meaningful impact on your surgical training"--Provided by publisher.

Download or read book Silicone Oil in Vitreoretinal Surgery written by R. Zivojnovic and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With this book, Dr. Zivojnovic presents to the ophthalmic community the long awaited detailed report of his surgical concepts and operative techniques in the field of vitreoretinal surgery. It is fascinating to read how his concepts for the treatment of complicated retinal detachments evolved from the intra ocular use of silicone oil to a combination of vitreous surgery with silicone oil tamponade. The next step was surgical treatment of the retina itself. It takes an unconventional mind to break major taboos and to state the retinotomies and retinectomies are necessary if scar tissue cannot be surgically removed and that buckling procedures are no longer necessary to treat retinal breaks. This book discusses the use of silicone oil in vitreoretinal surgery. Silicone oil tamponade has been proven to be a major step forward in vitreoretinal surgery and the reported results speak for themselves. The reader may have the impression that silicone is thought to be indispensible for almost all cases undergoing this type of surgery but this modality is used to treat severe cases where the chances of success are greatly enhanced by using silicone oil. Dr. Zivojnovic remains the forerunner and great surgeon who readily admits the limitations of his techniques: 'The surgical operative treatment is only partly adequate and, unfortunately, despite the correctly performed operation, often does not lead to the desired result'.
