A pilot study of pars plana vitrectomy, intraocular gas, and radial neurotomy in ischaemic central retinal vein occlusion.
BACKGROUND/AIMS There is no effective treatment for ischaemic central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO). The two major negative outcomes are neovascular glaucoma (NVG) and severe central visual loss. In this study pars plana vitrectomy (PPV), mild panretinal photocoagulation, and intraocular gas injection were employed to prevent NVG. The potential role of incision of the lamina cribrosa (radial ne...
متن کاملRadial Optic Neurotomy for Central Retinal Vein Occlusion
PURPOSE Surgical decompression of the vein in central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) by radial optic neurotomy (RON) was recently proposed as being surgically feasible, safe, and beneficial. The effect of RON on the visual field has not been systematically reported, although possible visual field defects are expected due to iatrogenic cutting of the optic nerve fibers. The authors report the res...
متن کاملPars plana vitrectomy and internal limiting membrane peeling for macular oedema secondary to retinal vein occlusion: a pilot study.
INTRODUCTION Macular oedema is the main cause of visual impairment following retinal vein occlusion. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the anatomical and functional outcome of pars plana vitrectomy and internal limited membrane (ILM) peeling for macular oedema secondary to retinal vein occlusion. CLINICAL PICTURE This pilot study is a prospective nonrandomised series of 11 eyes of 11 ...
متن کاملPars plana vitrectomy and internal limiting membrane peeling for macular edema secondary to retinal vein occlusion
PURPOSE To evaluate the effects of vitrectomy and internal limiting membrane peeling for treatment of macular edema secondary to retinal vein occlusion (RVO). METHODS Nine cases of visual loss due to macular edema caused by central retinal vein occlusion or branch retinal vein occlusion underwent pars plana vitrectomy with removal of the preretinal hyaloid, peeling of the internal limiting me...
متن کاملFive-year outcomes of pars plana vitrectomy for macular edema associated with branch retinal vein occlusion
PURPOSE Long-term outcomes of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) for macular edema (ME) associated with branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) have been previously reported, but the studies did not report the number of additional treatments after surgery. During 5 years of follow-up, we therefore investigated the efficacy and safety of PPV for BRVO and evaluated the incidence of additional treatments. ...
