Abstract
The results of this study are equivalent to those of studies in which analysis was made after removal of silicone oil. Proliferative vitreoretinopathy remains the only risk factor of retinal detachment recurrence with silicone oil (p < 0.01). The number of previous surgeries is not a risk factor for postoperative PVR. Retinectomy is a surgical procedure that seems to improve the results in cases of severe PVR.
