Intravitreal 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 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 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 کاملProliferative vitreoretinopathy.
PURPOSE. The migration, proliferation, differentiation, and adhesion of cells and other cellular functions are influenced by the surrounding extracellular matrix, in normal and wound-healing conditions. The matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of enzymes that degrade and remodel the extracellular matrix and, thus, play a central role in the wound-healing process. Proliferative vitreore...
متن کاملApoptosis in proliferative vitreoretinopathy.
PURPOSE To study the involvement of apoptosis using different apoptosis markers in PVR pathogenesis. METHODS The presence of mRNA coding for Fas, Fas ligand (FasL), and TNF-related apoptosis inducing ligand (TRAIL) was investigated in vitreous samples from 46 consecutive patients-25 with PVR, 11 with retinal detachment (RD) not complicated by PVR, and 10 with macular hole (MH)-using RT-PCR. F...
