https://doi.org/10.25881/20728255_2025_20_4_S1_80

Abstract

Background: Among the complications of episcleral buckling, rejection of buckling materials and the development of granulation polyps of the conjunctiva are particularly common. The development of polyps after scleroplastic surgery occurs due to chronic conjunctival trauma from protruding elements of the buckling material.

Objective: To analyze a clinical case of multiple granulation polyps developing after circular and localized episcleral buckling in a patient with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.

Materials and Methods: A prospective analysis of the data, clinical presentation, and surgical outcomes of a patient who presented to the Center was conducted.

Conclusion: Granulation polyps are a late complication of retinal detachment, causing significant discomfort to patients. The development of this complication is associated with chronic trauma to the conjunctiva by protruding edges of the filling material or rough scleral sutures, which requires the surgeon to carefully and adequately suturing the filling material during surgery.
