Selective Intra-Arterial Fibrinolysis of Acute Central Retinal Artery Occlusion
Background and Purpose—Occlusion of the central retinal artery (CRAO) causes a sudden decrease of monocular vision. Because early restoration of blood flow may improve outcome, we attempted to treat CRAO with selective intra-arterial fibrinolysis. Methods—Intra-arterial fibrinolysis was performed within 6 hours after symptom onset in 17 patients with thromboembolic CRAO. Symptoms were painless,...
متن کاملSuperselective intraarterial fibrinolysis in central retinal artery occlusion.
Intraarterial fibrinolysis was performed in three patients with acute central retinal artery occlusion using recombinant tissue plasminogen activator as a fibrinolytic agent. In two cases the ophthalmic artery was selectively catheterized, and in the other a thrombolytic drug was infused into the ophthalmic artery by way of the meningeal collaterals. All patients experienced visual improvement....
متن کاملSelective intraarterial fibrinolysis of acute central retinal artery occlusion.
PURPOSE To evaluate the outcome of our patients with central retinal artery occlusion after local fibrinolysis and to compare these data with results reported in the literature. MATERIAL AND METHODS Over a period of 7 years, 22 patients (11 male, 11 female, mean age 64.6 +/- 12.1 years) were treated with super-selective local fibrinolysis. In 1 case, treatment was carried out via the maxillar...

Objective: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of local intra-arterial fibrinolysis with tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) in the management of patients with central retinal artery occlusion. Design: Prospective randomized multicenter clinical trial (the European Assessment Group for Lysis in the Eye study). Methods: 9 centers in Austria and Germany recruited 84 patients with central retinal a...
متن کاملCentral Retinal Artery Occlusion Masquerading as Branch Retinal Artery Occlusion
Dear Editor, Retinal artery occlusion (RAO) is characterized by attenuated arterioles and ischemic retinal opacity, which suggest retinal infarction. Branch RAO (BRAO) has a more favorable prognosis than central RAO (CRAO). CRAO and BRAO can be differentiated based on the isch-emic retinal opacity area, location of the attenuated vessels , and a cherry-red spot [1]. However, we encountered a ca...
