Introduction: PDR (proliferative diabetic retinopathy) is one of the most frequently microvascular complication of the diabetic retinopathy. Purpose of the study: The aim of this study was to assess results of microsurgical and laser treatment. Materials and methods: In this study were included 110 patints with PDR treated at the Eyes Clinic in Prishtina, from 2005-2010. There was followed the PRP-laser treatment and that one of microsurgical like cryotherapy and vitrectomy. We have used statistical methods of processing and analysis. Results: With PRP were treated 66 cases, in 18 cases or 27% we had an improvement, in 35 cases or 53% stabilization and in 13 cases or 20% worsening. With CCT were treated 25 cases, in 2 cases or 8% improvement, in 18 cases or 72% stabilization and in 5 cases or 20% worsening and with vitrectomy were treated 19 cases, in 11 cases or 58% improvement, in 6 cases or 32% stabilization and in 2 cases or 10% worsening of the postoperative clinical treatment. The most frequently complications are vitreous hemorrhage with 38.6% and blindness up to 20.5%. Conclusion: In cases where the PDR is present, we have to advise the patients to undergo the PRP, CCT or vitrectomy in order to prevent the vitreous hemorrhage and its heavy complications.
Key words: PDR, PRP, CCT, vitrectomy.
