Abstract
Abstract To assess the safety and efficacy of short-term DensironXTRA tamponade for repair of complicated rhegmatogenous retinal detachments (RRD). This is a retrospective consecutive case series of patients undergoing pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with intravitreal DensironXTRA and a comparator group with gas (sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) or perfluoropropane (C3F8)) tamponades by a single surgeon between January 2017 and November 2020 at a tertiary care centre. A total of 121 eyes with DensironXTRA and 81 comparator eyes with a gas tamponade were included. The DensironXTRA group had a significantly higher number of cases with inferior breaks (82% vs. 48%; p
