Transpupillary thermotherapy for atypical central serous chorioretinopathy
BACKGROUND Central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) has been traditionally treated with laser photocoagulation. We thought that transpupillary thermotherapy (TTT) utilizing a lower temperature than that of conventional laser photocoagulation might minimize permanent retinal and choroidal damage. Studies suggest that undesirable effects on vision due to TTT are minimal even if it is applied to fov...
متن کامل[Transpupillary thermotherapy and age-related macular degeneration].
Transpupillary thermotherapy (TTT) has been proposed over the last a few years for the treatment of subfoveal occult choroidal neovessels resulting from age-related degeneration (AMD) when they are symptomatic and associated with exudation. Several pilot studies have shown how this technique can decrease or slow down the progression of exudation related to choroidal neovessels. Based on these p...

متن کاملChoroidal Neovascular Membranes Treated With Photodynamic Therapy
copy, Vesaluoma et al found loss of keratocytes in the anterior layers of the flap 6 months postoperatively that persisted for up to 2 years. Whether this is the result of apoptosis of keratocytes, lack of communication with lost sensory stromal nerves, or something else has not been determined. Mitooka et al, using confocal microscopy, confirmed this finding and also found fewer keratocytes in...
