Supplementary Material for: Biocompatibility and Inflammatory Pathways of Silicone Oil in Complex Retinal Detachment: An In Vitro and Clinical Study
Abstract
Introduction: This study aimed to characterize the inflammatory cytokine profile within silicone oil-associated fluid (SOAF) from eyes with complex rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) treated with silicone oil (SO) tamponade, comparing groups according to tamponade duration. Additionally, we aimed to assess in vitro the emulsification stability of SO in the presence of biological surfactant agents. Methods: This prospective multicenter study included 65 patients with complex RRD who underwent pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with SO tamponade, divided into two groups according to tamponade duration (
