    Summary

    Persistent hyperplastic primary vitreous (PHPV) requires early surgery to save the eye and prevent vision loss. Prompt intervention and careful follow-up are key for successful outcomes in PHPV cases.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Pediatric Ophthalmology
    • Vitreoretinal Surgery

    Background:

    • Persistent hyperplastic primary vitreous (PHPV) is a congenital developmental anomaly of the eye.
    • Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial for managing PHPV and preventing complications.

    Observation:

    • This study reviews nine recent cases of PHPV.
    • The cases highlight varied presentations, management strategies, and postsurgical outcomes.

    Findings:

    • Early surgical intervention is emphasized to preserve the eyeball and prevent amblyopia.
    • Roto-extraction is considered an advantageous surgical technique for PHPV.
    • Postoperative visual rehabilitation presents significant challenges.

    Implications:
