Popis:	Purpose: The surgery of choice for primary retinal detachment (RD) has shifted towards primary vitrectomy (PPV) in recent years. In this study, 2 cohorts of consecutive patients, treated by 8 retinal surgeons within a 7-year time span were compared. Methods: Baseline demographic data, surgical procedure, and outcome of patients with primary RD surgery between January 2007 and December 2008 (group 1, G1) and January 2012 and December 2013 (group 2, G2) were compared. Statistical analysis included univariate comparisons (Wilcoxon rank-sum test and χ2 test) and ANCOVA (analysis of covariance) models. Results: The most common primary procedure was scleral buckling (n = 92, 66%) in G1 and PPV (n = 252, 85%) in G2 (p < 0.0001). Primary anatomical success rates were comparable (89%). The percentage of eyes with best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) equal or better than 0.3 logMAR (6/12) at final follow-up was significantly higher in G2 (61%, n = 156) compared to 49% (n = 68) in G1 (p = 0.0223). Conclusions: Within 7 years, a complete trend reversal could be observed shifting the primary surgical approach for RD towards PPV. Primary and final anatomical success rates were comparable, yet the later group experienced a significantly higher gain in BCVA, which approves the change in treatment regimen.
