[Postoperative choroidal hemorrhage. Surgical indications].

Satisfactory results can be obtained in treating post-operative choroidal haemorrage by appropriate use of vitrectomy: indications include incarceration of vitreous in the filtration bleb or in the cataract incision, vitreous haemorrhage, rhegmatogenous and/or traction retinal detachment. The echography is of great value to determine timing of surgery by assessing completeness of clot lysis.
