Abstract

An improved technique for resecting a portion of the posterior segment is described. Preoperative photocoagulation and diathermy at the time of surgery provided adequate hemostasis and prevented postoperative retinal detachment. The use of Castroviejo trephine as the cutting instrument permitted histologic examination of the resected tissue.
