Description: A 58-year-old female underwent phacovitrectomy + scleral buckling by retinal detachment. Silicon oil was used as endo tamponade. In the post-surgical period, the formation of a subretinal PRV is observed with a significant circumferential contraction that generates an inferior redetachment. It was decided to undergo a vitreous cavity lavage to remove membranes + 180° retinectomy.
