Endophthalmitis after Pars Plana Vitrectomy: A 20- and 25-Gauge Comparison
Ophthalmology, 07/07/09
Hu AYH et al. - The incidence of endophthalmitis was low in both groups. The authors were unable to show a significant difference in the incidence of endophthalmitis between sutureless 25-gauge and sutured 20-gauge PPV, and conclude that a careful perioperative anti-infection protocol may reduce 25-gauge PPV endophthalmitis risk to that of 20-gauge PPV.
