9 patients are presented on whom anterior vitrectomy was performed. The indications included congenital rubella cataract with microphthalmos, traumatic cataract, persistent anterior and posterior hyperplastic primary vitreous, postcataract pupillary membranes, and postcataract vitreous prolapse with cystoid mascular edema. All patients to date have responded satisfactorily to the procedure. There has been no incidence of complicating retinal detachment.
