Sammendrag
The evolution of vitrectomy has led to improved suturless techniques and minimally invasive surgery. Nevertheless, the procedure requires great bimanual dexterity and poses risk for lens touch, especially in the hands of less experienced junior surgeons. We hereby present a twist technique which allows for one-handed (right or left) peripheral vitrectomy without the need for one or several hand-switches with the vitreous cutter and avoids lens touch. The technique can be used as a learning approach for junior vitreoretinal surgeons.
