چکیده
n engl j med 369;11 nejm.org september 12, 2013 1080 anticoagulants may prevent warfarin-induced skin necrosis but cannot be recommended yet. Finally, in reply to Grzybowski and Ascaso: the use of antithrombotic agents in ocular surgery remains highly controversial. The stated bleeding rate of 3% is excessive in modern cataract surgery. This avascular procedure, which is frequently performed with topical anesthesia, avoids potential retrobulbar hemorrhage due to retrobulbar anesthesia. However, retrobulbar anesthesia is frequently used in vitreoretinal surgery. Catastrophic bleeding during vitreoretinal surgery can be due to choroidal hemorrhage and neovascularization in proliferative retinal diseases. Bleeding after sutureless vitreoretinal surgery may be uncontrolled, since hypotonia in an open eye prevents tamponade. Todd H. Baron, M.D. Patrick S. Kamath, M.D. Robert D. McBane, M.D.
