(4) Closure is accomplished by suture of soft tissues and reattachment of the posterior trochanteric fragment with bone screws.
(5) Retinal detachment, separation of the neural retina from the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), initiates a series of changes in the eye which result in loss of vision if the retina is not rapidly reattached to the RPE.
(6) Scatter photocoagulation, as employed in this group of patients, frequently results in retinal reattachment and temporary visual improvement, but many patients have permanently decreased vision in the affected eye, particularly when the tumor or the retinal detachment affects the foveal area.
(7) Eight exaggerated recessions were similarly performed; these were more variable in the site of reattachment.
(8) The capsule is reattached to the boney rim of the anterioinferior glenoid deep to and lateral to the torn cartilagenous labrum, thus excluding the labrum from the joint anteriorly.
