Key Factors to Improve the Outcome of Retinal Reattachment Surgery in Proliferative Vitreoretinopathy and Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy

Table 5

Multiple regression to analyse potential risk factors for retinal redetachment rate in the prospective group: in this group, all patients got a 3-port revision surgery, so that “kind of revision” was not a predictor in this model.
