agree  Stuart and Aida Nelson: muy buena conclusión. De acuerdo. Lo que no entiendo es por qué los médicos españoles no usan el término completo, no sería retinopexia? Oh, I can see that they say 'desprendimiento de retina' well done!

  -> Thanks, Stuart/Aida. Yes, seems a bit minimalistic, and I don't suppose you could get with just Pexy in English.

agree  Charles Davis

  -> Thanks, Charles!

agree  Chema Nieto Castañón: Pexia, y sí, efectivamente en este caso parece aludir específicamente a una retinopexia.
