Treatment of retinal pigment epithelial detachment with antiangiogenic therapy
PURPOSE Evaluate the efficacy of pegaptanib, a selective anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) agent, and bevacizumab, a nonselective anti-VEGF agent, for retinal pigment epithelial detachment (PED) associated with occult choroidal neovascularization (CNV) secondary to age-related macular degeneration (AMD). METHODS Prospective, comparative, nonrandomized pilot study included patient...
متن کاملThe onset of pigment epithelial proliferation after retinal detachment.
The adult mammalian retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) is mitotically inactive, yet retains the capacity to proliferate under certain conditions. To determine the onset of RPE proliferation after retinal detachment, we examined experimentally detached cat retinas of 12, 24, 48, and 72 hr duration. An additional animal served as a nondetached, sham-operated control. 3H-thymidine was injected into ...
متن کاملImmediate loss of vision due to retinal pigment epithelial tear after anti-angiogenesis treatment of pigment epithelial detachment.
Intravitreal injection of ranibizumab, an antivascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) drug, is currently the primary treatment for wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD) in the UK. Use of ranibizumab for the treatment of isolated pigment epithelial detachments (PEDs) without the presence of an occult choroidal neovascular membrane has not been studied in a randomized controlled fashion an...
متن کاملRetinal detachment in the cat: the pigment epithelial-photoreceptor interface.
Twenty-six cat retinae were surgically detached by injecting fluid into the subretinal space (SRS). The retinae were then studied by light and electron microscopy at detachment intervals ranging from 1/2 hr to 14 months. Degenerative and proliferative changes occur at the retinal pigment epithelial (RPE)-photoreceptor interface very soon after detachment, and the severity of these changes depen...
متن کاملRetinal 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...
