Abstract
Objective To assess clinical factors leading to recurrent retinal detachment (RD) and characteristics of recurrence in patients with Stickler Syndrome. Methods Retrospective case series study of patients with clinical diagnosis of Stickler Syndrome who underwent rhegmatogenous RD repair. Recurrent RD after initial surgery was categorized as "early" if the recurrence was within 1 year or "late" if greater than 1 year. Results Thirty eyes from 22 patients underwent rhegmatogenous RD repair. For initial repair, 13 eyes underwent pars plana vitrectomy combined with scleral buckling (PPV/SB), 16 eyes underwent primary scleral buckling (SB), and 1 eye underwent pneumatic retinopexy (PnR). Recurrent RD occurred in 6 (46%) PPV/SB eyes (5 early and 1 late), 10 (63%) SB eyes (3 early and 7 late), and 0 (0%) PnR eyes (p = 0.61). PPV/SB was preferred for eyes presenting with total detachment (82%), giant retinal tears (100%), and proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) (80%). For eyes with early recurrent RD, 6 (75%) developed PVR leading to recurrence. For eyes with late recurrent RD, 7 (87.5%) developed a new retinal break leading to recurrence, including 4 with a break posterior to the buckle indentation apex. At last follow-up, median LogMAR visual acuity was 0.68 for eyes with recurrent RD compared to 0.29 for eyes without recurrence (p = 0.27). Conclusions Early recurrent RD was mostly caused by PVR, while late recurrent RD was mostly due to new retinal breaks. Eyes with seemingly uncomplicated rhegmatogenous RD repair with primary SB remained at high risk for late re-detachment.

Abstract
PURPOSE In this study, the authors aimed to identify the demographics of retinal detachment in children in the United States and to report the treatment modalities chosen by vitreoretinal surgeons and associated outcomes. METHODS This was a multicenter cohort analysis of the Vestrum Health LLC Database (Naperville, IL). Children (1-17 years) with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, as identified by ICD10 and CPT codes, between January 2015 and August 2021 were enrolled. Demographic, comorbidity, visual acuity, and treatment modality data were analyzed. RESULTS A total of 168,152 RRDs were identified, of which 2,200 (1.3%) were aged 1 to 17 years. The mean age was 12.7 years, and 821 (37%) were women. The prevalence of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment increased with age ( P = 0.009). Associated comorbidities included myopia (17.3%), ocular trauma (7.5%), and history of prematurity (5.7%). Laser retinopexy alone was used as the initial treatment modality in 19%, primary vitrectomy in 23%, primary scleral buckle in 25%, and vitrectomy with scleral buckle in 33%. The single surgery success rate for all procedures was 73.3%. Of the incisional surgical modalities, primary scleral buckling had the best single surgery success rate (79.0%) compared with vitrectomy alone (64.5%) and vitrectomy with scleral buckle (67.2%) ( P < 0.001 and P = 0.004, respectively). Younger age resulted in worse SSSR overall (coefficient = 0.151, R 2 = 0.746, P = 0.027). CONCLUSION Rhegmatogenous retinal detachments in children increased with age. Myopia, trauma, and history of retinopathy of prematurity were common risk factors. Treatment techniques varied, but primary scleral buckling had the best anatomical and visual outcomes.

Abstract
Purpose To compare re-vitrectomy versus combined re-vitrectomy with scleral buckling (SB) for pediatric recurrent rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) following failed primary pars plana vitrectomy (PPV). Methods This was a retrospective, comparative case series of pediatric patients (under 18 years) who underwent secondary RRD procedures after failed primary PPV. Patients were divided into the re-vitrectomy and the combined re-vitrectomy with SB groups. The primary outcome was the anatomical success rate for each procedure. The secondary outcomes were changes in best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and postoperative complications. Results In the re-vitrectomy group (30 eyes), the final anatomical success rate was 83.3% (25/30) after a mean follow-up of 21.7 + 6.9 months. The final anatomical success rate in the combined re-vitrectomy/SB group (23 eyes) was 73.9% (17/23) after a mean follow-up of 26.5 + 7.7 months. There was no statistically significant difference in the final anatomical success rate (P = 0.41) and the mean change in BCVA (P = 0.37) between the two groups. Even though not statistically significant, the combined re-vitrectomy/SB group had a lower incidence of postoperative complications (P = 0.25). Conclusion Re-vitrectomy alone provides similar anatomical and functional outcomes to combined re-vitrectomy/SB for pediatric recurrent RRD after failed primary PPV.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study describes presenting clinical features and surgical techniques associated with successful repair of pediatric rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD). METHODS This is a retrospective case series which involved 242 cases younger than 18 years with new-onset RRD with descriptive statistics for the full group. Further exclusion established 168 cases that underwent surgery with minimum 3-month follow-up. Comparison of features associated with successful outcomes was analyzed using Chi-squared tests, logistic regression and univariate generalized equation models. RESULTS We measured proportion of patients with BCVA ≤ 1.0 logMAR and/or an increase in final BCVA of 0.3 logMAR with respect to baseline and complete reattachment at final visit; 104 eyes (62%) achieved total reattachment, and 91 eyes (54%) achieved visual success. Absence of macular involvement, subtotal RRD and older age group (13-18) were associated with both success measures. There were higher visual and anatomic success rates with primary scleral buckling (SB, 66% and 79%; OR 9.26 and 11.09) and combined SB plus pars plana vitrectomy (PPV, 54% and 58%; OR 5.67 and 3.94) compared with PPV alone (26% and 17%). CONCLUSION A majority of patients achieved anatomical success with repair. Trauma and myopia were the most common etiologic associations, with myopic cases having better outcomes. Success was more likely in patients with subtotal RRD or uninvolved macula at presentation; previous intraocular surgery was a risk factor for failure. Younger patients had a higher likelihood of worse outcomes. Initial PPV showed a lower rate of success than either SB or combined SB/PPV.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the clinical characteristics and surgical outcomes of pediatric retinal detachments (RDs) in an Asian population. METHODS Retrospective review of 171 eyes of 152 pediatric patients with rhegmatogenous RD over a 20-year period. RESULTS Myopia was the most common risk factor in our population. At 6 months, primary anatomical success was 60.7%, and overall anatomical success was 86.7%. A total of 46.8% had best-corrected visual acuity of 20/40 or better, and 81.6% had best-corrected visual acuity of 20/200 or better. In primary RDs, high myopia (≤-6D) patients had a lower primary anatomical success compared to patients with moderate myopia (≤-2D) (59.3 vs. 100% P = 0.03). Increasing age and absence of proliferative vitreoretinopathy were associated with anatomical and visual success. Pars plana vitrectomy as the primary procedure was associated with decreased odds of anatomical success. A longer duration of symptoms, cataract, and a larger RD extent were associated with poorer functional outcome. CONCLUSION Myopia was the commonest risk factor for pediatric RD in our population. Good anatomical and functional outcome can be achieved with surgery. Increasing age at presentation and absence of proliferative vitreoretinopathy was associated with anatomical and functional success. High myopia was associated with poorer anatomical and functional outcome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Stickler syndrome is a collagenopathy caused by mutations in the genes COL2A1 (STL1) or COL11A1 (STL2). Affected patients manifest ocular, auditory, articular, and craniofacial manifestations in varying degrees. Ocular symptoms include myopia, retinal detachment, cataract, and glaucoma. The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate the prevalence of ocular manifestations and the outcome of prophylactic treatment on reducing the risk of retinal detachment. METHOD A systematic literature search was performed in the PubMed database. Information on the cross-study prevalence of myopia, retinal detachment, cataract, glaucoma, visual impairment, severity and age of onset of myopia and retinal detachments. Studies that reported on the outcome of prophylactic treatment against a control group were explored. RESULTS 37 articles with 2324 individual patients were included. Myopia was found in 83% of patients, mostly of a moderate to severe degree. Retinal detachments occurred in 45% of patients. Generally, the first detachment occurred in the second decade of life in STL1 patients and later in STL2. Cataracts were more common in STL2 patients, 59% versus 36% in STL1. Glaucoma (10%) and visual impairment (blind: 6%; vision loss in one eye: 10%) were rare. Three studies reported on the effect of prophylactic treatment being protective. CONCLUSION Ocular manifestations are common in Stickler patients, but the comparison between studies was difficult because of inconsistencies in diagnostic and inclusion criteria by different studies. Sight-threatening complications such as retinal detachments are common but although prophylactic therapy is reported to be effective in retrospective studies, evidence from randomized trials is missing.

Abstract
PURPOSE Pediatric retinal detachments (RDs) are unique in etiology, anatomy, and prognosis compared with the adult population. The mechanisms of pediatric RD include tractional (TRD), rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, traumatic, and other types, such as exudative or hemorrhagic. This study examined visual and anatomical outcomes of pediatric RD undergoing surgical repair at a single university referral center. METHODS A retrospective consecutive case series of patients clinically diagnosed and undergoing surgery for RD between birth and 15 years of age from 2002 to 2013 at a single academic institution. RESULTS A total of 206 patients (231 eyes) were included in this study, of which 25 (12%) had bilateral RD. Of those patients, 67 (29%) had TRD (retinopathy of prematurity, persistent fetal vasculature, or familial exudative vitreoretinopathy), 51 (22%) had rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (myopia, X-linked retinoschisis, or Stickler syndrome), 60 (26%) had traumatic RD, and 53 (23%) were due to other types of RD, such as Coats disease or coloboma. Presenting best-corrected visual acuity better than 20/200 correlated with better final best-corrected visual acuity (P < 0.0001). Anatomical success was strongly correlated with visual acuity outcome (P < 0.00001) and was significantly more likely in rhegmatogenous retinal detachment versus TRD (78% vs. 39%, P < 0.05). The rates of obtaining a final best-corrected visual acuity > 20/200 were poorer in TRD (10%) compared with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (39%, P < 0.01) or traumatic RD (28%, P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Visual and anatomical outcomes varied among categories of RD. Rhegmatogenous retinal detachments were associated with the best outcomes (anatomical success and globe conservation), whereas TRDs generally had poorer visual and anatomical outcomes.

Abstract
Paediatric retinal detachment (PRD) is an uncommon and challenging disease; it differs from adult detachments in etiology, anatomical characteristics, management and prognosis. PRDs can be particularly challenging, even for the most expert paediatric surgeons due to the higher prevalence of total retinal detachments, late diagnosis and bilateral involvement with respect to those which occur in adulthood. Moreover, the anatomical success, when achieved, is frequently not related to a functional recover. Postsurgical adverse events, refractive errors and amblyopia may additionally undermine the final outcome. Up to date there are few reviews regarding the approach of retinal detachment in children, mainly dealing with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment. In this review, rhegmatogenous, retinopathy of prematurity-related and Coats'-related PRDs were considered. The available literature from the last decades were reviewed and summarized. Epidemiology, etiology and clinical presentation, together with therapeutic approaches and outcomes have been reviewed and discussed.

Abstract
AIM To report outcomes of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) in pediatric retinal detachment (RD) with proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR), complications, factors influencing the final anatomical and functional results. METHODS Retrospective consecutive case series of 14 eyes. Average postoperative follow-up period was 34 months. RESULTS Mean age of patients was 10 years; eleven patients (79%) were males. The most common etiology was trauma (57%), the second-myopia (36%) and one case of uveitis (7%). At the day of presentation, the best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was worse than hand motion (50%); macula was detached in 86% of cases. Simultaneous PPV and phacoemulsification with intraocular lens (IOL) implantation were performed in 12 cases (86%). The most common endotamponade during PPV was silicone oil (93%). Anatomic reattachment was accomplished in 86% of cases. Final BCVA was equal or better than 0.1 in 50% of patients. The postoperative complications were found in 5 eyes (36%). CONCLUSION Complete PPV was allowed for anatomically reattached retina and preserved vision in pediatric complex RD with PVR. However, visual outcomes were not satisfactory. Preserving vision in children with RD is of great importance for their future motor and intellectual development. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03208205.
