Abstract
PVR stage D with closed funnel without view to optic disc (Fig. 20.1) is surgically the most demanding and most difficult pathology within PVR detachments. The retina is stiffened with full-thickness retinal folds. A circumferential traction leads to a purse string funnel detachment. The surgical aim is to remove these tractional forces and mobilize the retina (Video 20.1).
