Objective To probe the clinical feature and complications of extraction of silicon oil after operation of simple rhegmatogenous retinal detachment in child patients. Methods The clinical materials of 22 patients (22 eyes) of child patients (5~14 years old) and 11 cases (11 eyes) of adult patients with simple rhegmatogenous retinal detachment undergone surgical treatment and subsequent retraction of silicon oil tampon, were reviewed and analyzed retrospectively. The reasons of extraction silicon tampon, ocular complications of intrao cular silicon tamponade and the changes of visual acuity pre- and post-extraction of silicon tamponade in above 2 groups were explored. Results The main reason for the extraction and complications of silicon oil tamponade were similar in both groups. The rate of occurrence of the complications in either group rose as time went on . There was no significant difference in change of visual acuity between two groups after the extraction of silicon oil tampon. Conclusion The responses to silicon oil after the operation for simple rhegmatogenous retinal detachment is quite similar in either children or adult patients,and there is no obvious difference between child and adult patients in the results of silicon oil extraction.
