After unsuccessful pretreatment with laser along the temporal circumference of the optic disc (old scars) a vitrectomy is performed, posterior vitreous separation and platelet concentrate. The idea of platelets is to clog the pig. The idea of vitrectomy is to release traction of eventual vitreous strands into the pit. Both rationales are hypothetical.
