Abstract THE surgical repair of retinal detachment associated with a small retinal dialysis is accomplished with a high rate of success by most retinal surgeons,1,2 regardless of the specific technique employed. In contrast, detachments associated with giant dialyses have been corrected with less success, especially if the posterior edges are rolled, and in some instances attempted repair has not even been tried.1 In this report, a technique is described which permitted a giant dialysis and tear with rolled edge to be successfully reattached. Report of a Case A 25-year-old male student was seen because of acute right eye pain and blurred vision. This developed immediately after he was struck in the eye by a finger while playing football. His past medical history revealed several minor shrapnel injuries to the left arm and knee, reattachment of a severed left thumb, and treatment for malaria; all occurring while he was in References 1.
