Abstrakt:	The aim of the report was to evaluate anatomical results and intra and postoperative complications after silicone oil (SIO) removal. Methods: Retrospective, interventional study evaluating consecutive cases with ambulatory SIO removal after vitrectomy for complex retinal detachments. The anatomical result was the main followed parameter. Intra and postoperative complications and also intraocular pressure changes were evaluated. Cases were followed-up for at least 12 months. Results: A total of 98 consecutive cases were reviewed. The main duration of oil endotamponade was 5.46 months (3-16 months). In 15 cases (15.30%) signs of SIO emulsification were noted at the time of removal. A stable anatomical result after SIO removal was obtained in 94 out of 98 cases (95.91%). Retinal detachment recurrence appeared in first month postoperatively (1 case) and between the 3rd and 4th month postoperatively (3 cases). Main indications for 5000cs SIO endotamponade during ambulatory 23G vitrectomy were represented by proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) (78 cases - 79.59%), proliferative diabetic retinopathy (17 cases - 17.34%) and giant retinal tears (3 cases - 3.06%). 29 eyes (29.59%) were pseudophakic at primary surgery. However, most phakic eyes showed cataract appearance and progression during SIO endotamponade and also after SIO removal. Intraocular pressure significantly decreased after SIO removal with the occurrence of various choroidal detachments in 8 cases (8.16%), resolving spontaneously within the first week postoperatively. Conclusions: In our experience, the retinal detachment recurrence rate after SIO removal was 4.08%. This promising anatomical result confirms the need for an accurate primary surgery and also for a safe moment of SIO removal according to the severity of primary pathology.
