Core Tip En bloc perfluorodissection and preoperative intravitreal bevacizumab use for small-gauge vitrectomy in patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy and tractional retinal detachment are very useful, the combination reduces complications and operative time. En bloc perfluorodissection and preoperative intravitreal bevacizumab use seems to have many advantages including that the retina remains stable during vitrectomy, better visibility of the ocular structures in the vitreous cavity, immediate reattachment of the retina, bleeding control, subretinal fluid reabsorbsion and drainage, bleeding sites’ tamponade, and easier dissection of epiretinal tissues.
