Angiographic results of retinal-retinal anastomosis and retinal-choroidal anastomosis after treatments in eyes with retinal angiomatous proliferation
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to evaluate the angiographic results of retinal-retinal anastomosis (RRA) and retinal-choroidal anastomosis (RCA) for eyes with retinal angiomatous proliferation (RAP) after treatment with intravitreal bevacizumab injections as monotherapy or intravitreal bevacizumab combined with photodynamic therapy. METHODS In this interventional, consecutive case s...
متن کاملSurgical ablation of retinal angiomatous proliferation.
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) remains the leading cause of visual loss in adults older than 65 years. Retinal angiomatous proliferation (RAP) is a newly recognized manifestation of exudative AMD that has a poor natural history and demonstrated resistance to treatment with conventional laser photocoagulation. A novel surgical technique has been developed in this pilot series that shows ...
متن کاملRETINAL ANGIOMATOUS PROLIFERATION DIAGNOSIS: A Multiimaging Approach.
PURPOSE To identify signs occurring more frequently in retinal angiomatous proliferation (RAP) lesions compared with other types of choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in age-related macular degeneration. METHODS In this cross-sectional retrospective study, 30 patients were evaluated. These signs were correlated with the type of CNV: shunting of blood flow to the lesion by fluorescein angiogra...
متن کاملRetinal Angiomatous Proliferation and Intravitreal Bevacizumab Injection
PURPOSE To evaluate the short-term efficacy and safety of intravitreal bevacizumab injection (IVBI) in patients with retinal angiomatous proliferation (RAP). METHODS Seven eyes of 5 patients with RAP were included in this study. All of the eyes evidenced stage 2 RAP lesions, except for one eye with a stage 3 lesion. IVBI (1.25 mg/0.05 cc) were conducted at 4 or 6-week intervals. Complete ocul...
متن کاملClinicopathologic correlation of retinal angiomatous proliferation.
OBJECTIVES To correlate clinical and histopathologic features of an eye with retinal angiomatous proliferation (RAP) secondary to age-related macular degeneration and to investigate the expression of von Willebrand factor (VWF) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in this condition. METHODS Histopathologic features from serial sections through the globe of an 87-year-old woman with R...
