Why is it important?
Our findings showed that the root of the FRD is susceptible to trauma because of the contraction of fibrovascular tissue. It might be rare, but an early intervention of modern vitrectomy to traumatic rhegmatogenous retinal detachment complicating a FRD is an important consideration for patient outcomes.
Perspectives
I hope this article will be able to share the knowledge of the treatment with many surgeons facing with challenging vitreo retinal cases.
