Intravitreal invading cells contribute to vitreal cytokine milieu in proliferative vitreoretinopathy.
AIM To examine the contribution of infiltrating cells in the local production of cytokines within the vitreous of patients with proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR). METHODS The presence of mRNA coding for IL-6, IL-8, IL-1beta, IL-1alpha, TNFalpha, IFNgamma, IL-12, and HPRT was investigated in 25 vitreous samples from patients with PVR, 11 vitreous samples from patients with retinal detachme...
متن کاملIntravitreal methotrexate infusion for proliferative vitreoretinopathy
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate intravitreal methotrexate infusion (IMI) during pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) for retinal detachment in patients with high risk for the development of proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR). METHODS Patients presenting with severe recurrent PVR with tractional retinal detachment and/or a history of severe ocular inflammation were treated with IMI...
متن کاملIntravitreal daunomycin induces multidrug resistance in proliferative vitreoretinopathy.
PURPOSE Adjuvant intravitreal daunomycin is frequently used for the management of proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR). In this study the authors examined whether daunomycin could induce multidrug resistance (MDR), mediated by the mdr-1 gene product P-glycoprotein, in the cells responsible for reproliferation in vivo and in human retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells in vitro. METHODS Expre...
متن کاملIntravitreal Injection of Bevacizumab as Adjunctive Treatment for Proliferative Vitreoretinopathy
Objectives: To evaluate the midterm anatomical and functional outcomes of intravitreal injection bevacizumab in silicone oil–filled eyes as an adjunctive treatment for proliferative vitreoretinopathy. Material/patients and Method: The study included all 16 patients who underwent pars plana vitrectomy for treatment of proliferative vitreoretinopathy grade C or D, who received pars plana vitrecto...
متن کاملAlterations in the intraocular cytokine milieu after intravitreal bevacizumab.
PURPOSE Several complications after intravitreal bevacizumab (IVB) treatment have been described including tears of the retinal pigment epithelium and tractional retinal detachment. The etiology of these complications remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to characterize changes in the intraocular levels of inflammatory cytokines after IVB as a possible explanation for these complicati...
