STOLIK PEREZ, Pamy; PEREZ CANDELARIA, Eneida; RIO TORRES, Marcelino  y  BAYARRE VEA, Héctor. Risk factors for retinal detachment in patients operated on of cataract, 1990 and 1997. Rev Cubana Oftalmol [online]. 2001, vol.14, n.2, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1561-3070.

A study of 17 762 patients that were operated on of cataract by using the extracapsular crystalline lens extraction technique was made. 42 of these patients had retina detachment (RD) after surgery. Those factors influencing on the appearance of RD in these patients were determined within a group of presumed established risk factors. The results obtained showed that the posterior capsulotomy (Nd Yag Laser) was the variable that influenced the most, followed, in order of frequency, by the transsurgical complications, the absence of intraocular lens implant (IOL) and, finally, by the ocular diseases history.

Palabras clave : CATARACT EXTRACTION [adverse effects]; CATARACT [complication]; RETINAL DETACHMENT; INTRAOPERATIVE COMPLICATIONS; POSTOPERATIVE COMPLICATIONS; RISK FACTORS.
