To evaluate the role of pars plana vitrectomy in the management of intraocular inflammation with dense vitreous opacification, vitrectomy was performed in 14 patients with chronic uveitis, 6 eyes with retinal periphlebitis, and in 8 cases of endophthalmitis. Visual acuity improved in 21 eyes, remained unchanged in 3, and deteriorated in 4 cases (follow-up period 2 months to 3 years). Pre-existing retinal damage such as cystoid macular oedema or degeneration restricted final visual acuity. In most eyes inflammation (aqueous flare and cells) diminished, except in hypotonic eyes with chronic iridocyclitis, which also gained little in vision. The results indicate that vitrectomy is valuable in the treatment of chronic uveitis with vitreous opacification due to cellular invasion and membrane formation, in periphlebitis with vitreous hemorrhages, and in endophthalmitis.
为评估玻璃体切除术在伴有致密玻璃体混浊的眼内炎症治疗中的作用，对14例慢性葡萄膜炎患者、6例视网膜周边静脉炎患者的6只眼以及8例眼内炎患者实施了玻璃体切除术。21只眼视力提高，3只眼视力不变，4只眼视力下降（随访期2个月至3年）。黄斑囊样水肿或变性等既往存在的视网膜损害限制了最终视力。除慢性虹膜睫状体炎导致的低眼压眼中炎症（房水闪光和细胞）减轻但视力改善甚微外，大多数眼中的炎症减轻。结果表明，玻璃体切除术在治疗因细胞浸润和膜形成导致玻璃体混浊的慢性葡萄膜炎、伴有玻璃体积血的周边静脉炎以及眼内炎方面具有重要价值。
