Quantitative analysis of macular contraction in idiopathic epiretinal membrane
BACKGROUND We aimed to quantify the displacement of macular capillaries using infrared fundus photographs and image processing software (ImageJ) in patients with idiopathic epiretinal membrane (ERM) who have undergone vitrectomy and to analyze the correlation between vessel displacement and retinal thickness. METHODS This prospective study included 16 patients who underwent vitrectomy for idi...
متن کاملVitrectomy with or without internal limiting membrane peeling for idiopathic epiretinal membrane: A meta-analysis
BACKGROUND Studies on vitrectomy with and without internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling for idiopathic epiretinal membrane (ERM) have yielded uncertain results regarding clinical outcomes and recurrence rates. OBJECTIVE To compare the clinical outcomes of vitrectomy with and without ILM peeling for idiopathic ERM. METHODS Databases, including PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, Web of Science, Goo...
متن کاملInflammatory Mechanisms of Idiopathic Epiretinal Membrane Formation
The pathogenesis of idiopathic epiretinal membranes (iERMs), a common pathology found in retina clinics, still eludes researchers to date. Ultrastructural studies of iERMs in the past have failed to identify the cells of origin due to the striking morphologic changes of cells involved via transdifferentiation. Thus, immunohistochemical techniques that stain for the cytostructural components of ...
متن کاملIdiopathic epiretinal membrane in young patient: a rare case presentation.
Epiretinal membrane is avascular fibrous tissue which is adhered to the internal layers of retina in the macular area. Patient may be asymptomatic or present with blurring of vision and metamorphopsia. The idiopathic Epiretinal Membrane is more often seen in elderly but it could be present in young patients in association with other vitreo-retinal diseases and following intraocular surgery. The...
متن کاملGene Expression Analysis of the Irrigation Solution Samples Collected during Vitrectomy for Idiopathic Epiretinal Membrane
PURPOSE The analysis of gene expression in idiopathic epiretinal membranes (iERMs) may help elucidate ERM formation and its pathology. Here, we conducted a case-control study, in order to determine the expression levels of cytokines and other genes in eyes with macular hole (MH) or iERM. METHODS Twenty eyes, obtained from seven male and 13 female patients, were included in the study. The aver...
