Filter by:Tractional retinal detachment (TRD) that involves the macula and non-clearing vitreous hemorrhage are the main causes of permanent vision loss in patients with diabetic retinopathy and requires prompt surgical intervention. Macular peeling is a surgical technique used in many retinal diseases including diabetic retinal detachment. Our purpose is to determine whether retinal microcirculatory changes occur after anatomically successful diabetic vitrectomy, and whether changes in blood flow vary if ILM peeling was done and whether changes in macular perfusion affect the final visual outcome. The aim of this study is to non-invasively evaluate, with optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A), the anatomical changes of deep and superficial vascular density in the macula with and without macular peeling in diabetic vitrectomy.
Pars-plana vitrectomy (PPV) is the cornerstone of surgical treatment for eyes with complicated proliferative diabetic retinopathy. Anti-VEGF intravitreal injection before PPV has shown a good effect on surgical outcomes. However, many patients present with co-morbidities that contraindicate the usage of anti-VEGF in the pre-operative period. Thus, cryoapplication, an old therapeutic tool for proliferative diabetic retinopathy may be a good alternative. The investigators present herein a comparative study between peripheral retinal cryoapplication and anti-VEGF before vitrectomy for complicated proliferative diabetic retinopathy.
To evaluate efficacy of different intravitreal Conbercept injection therapy in the treatment of severe proliferative diabetic retinopathy.
Vitreoretinal surgery for epiretinal proliferation tractional retinal detachment associated with proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) is often complicated by hemorrhage from fibrovascular tissue. To control the bleeding during tissue dissection multiple measures and techniques are used. Bevacizumab is an anti VEGF antibody which has been used to induce regression of ocular neovascularization. Its intraocular injection has been increasingly used for treatment of choroidal neovascularization (CNV) associated with age related macular degeneration (AMD) with fairly good success.Also it has been shown to be effective for treatment of PDR complicated with vitreous hemorrhage and iris neovascularization. We hypothesized that if anti-angiogenic agents, such as bevacizumab are injected into the vitreous cavity before vitrectomy in cases of PDR; there may be partial regression of neovascularization resulting in less intraoperative (and postoperative) hemorrhage. This can make the operation easier and shorter and lessen the need for intraocular cautery.. In this study diabetic patients who are candidated for vitrectomy with similar complexity scores will be randomized to preoperative injection or no injection of 2.5 mg Bevacizumab .In the injection group, 2.5 mg of bevacizumab (0.1 ml of commercially available Avastin vial, Genentech, inc. South San Francisco, CA) will be injected into the vitreous 3-5 days before operation. During each operation, the number of endodiathermy applications, backflush needle applications and the duration of surgery will be recorded by an independent observer. Also, type of tamponade, post operation vitreous hemorrhage and 3 months postoperative visual acuities wil be recorded. all these parameters will be compared in two groups.
