描述泌尿外科器械镍钛合金取石网篮在眼内异物（IOFB）取出中的新应用。这是一项回顾性病例系列，描述了2例患者的双眼在金属对金属锤击后出现金属IOFB。两名患者均接受了23号睫状体平坦部玻璃体切除术（PPV），并使用NCirle ®镍钛合金无尖端取石器成功取出了IOFB。无术中或术后并发症。两例患者均显示视力改善，最近的术后视力分别为20/40和20/60。可考虑使用镍钛合金取石网篮取出IOFB，尤其是难以用镊子夹持的较大IOFB。我们的病例补充了文献，显示使用该技术的术后视力结果良好，并发症少。
To describe the novel application of a urological instrument, the nitinol stone basket, in the removal of a retained intraocular foreign body (IOFB). This is a retrospective case series describing two eyes of two patients presenting with metallic IOFBs after hammering metal-on-metal. Both patients underwent 23-gauge pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) and successful IOFB extraction using the NCircle® Nitinol Tipless Stone Extractor. There were no intraoperative or post-surgical complications. Both patients demonstrated improvement in vision, with most recent postoperative visual acuities of 20/40 and 20/60. The nitinol stone basket may be considered for removal of IOFBs, particularly larger IOFBs that are difficult to grasp with forceps. Our cases add to the literature showing favorable visual outcomes and few complications in the post-operative period using this technique.
