Retinal pigment epithelial tears following ranibizumab therapy for fibrovascular retinal pigment epithelial detachment due to occult age-related macular degeneration
BACKGROUND The aim of this paper is to report the incidence of retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) tears in patients treated with ranibizumab for subfoveal fibrovascular retinal pigment epithelial detachment (FVPED) due to occult age-related macular degeneration (AMD). MATERIAL/METHODS Thirty patients were treated according to the following schedule: saturation phase, further treatment was based...
متن کاملTreatment of retinal pigment epithelial detachment secondary to exudative age-related macular degeneration
Purpose This pilot study evaluated the combination of photodynamic therapy (PDT) and anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) as a treatment in patients with a pigment epithelial detachment (PED) due to exudative age-related degeneration (AMD). Methods We analyzed seven consecutive patients between September 1, 2015 and September 1, 2017 with a PED secondary to exudative AMD who we...
متن کاملClinicopathological correlation of retinal pigment epithelial tears in exudative age related macular degeneration: pretear, tear, and scarred tear.
AIMS To analyse the histopathology of vascularised pigment epithelial detachments and tears of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) in age related macular degeneration (AMD). METHODS The light microscopic architecture of 10 surgically removed subretinal specimens-three vascularised pigment epithelial detachments, four recent tears, and three scarred tears as a manifestation of AMD-were studie...
متن کاملRetinal pigment epithelial tear after intravitreal bevacizumab injection for exudative age-related macular degeneration
We report a series of retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) tears after intravitreal bevacizumab therapy for choroidal neovascularization associated with age-related macular degeneration (ARMD). Retinal pigment epithelial tears were estimated to occur at an incidence of 1.6% in this patient population at our institution. Ophthalmologists should be aware of this rare but serious finding associated wi...
متن کاملPigment epithelial tears associated with anti-VEGF therapy: incidence, long-term visual outcome, and relationship with pigment epithelial detachment in age-related macular degeneration.
PURPOSE To evaluate the prevalence of retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) tears associated with anti-VEGF therapy and its relation with retinal pigment epithelial detachment (PED). METHODS A total of 226 patients with exudative age-related macular degeneration treated with intravitreal anti-VEGF were included retrospectively in the study. The presence of RPE tears; the effect of the presence, he...
