Background: Cystoid Macular Edema (CME) is one of the most common and sight threatening complications of uveitis. Intravitreal injection of corticosteroids and anti-VEGF antibody are two routine options for treatment. Objective: To compare the effects of intravitreal injections of Bevacizumab and Triamcinolone Acetonide for the treatment of persistent macular edema in non-infectious uveitis. Me...

Purpose. To evaluate the efficacy of intravitreal bevacizumab and triamcinolone in the treatment of cystoid macular oedema in a case with chronic myeloid leukaemia on imatinib treatment. Methods. We treated a 78-year-old man with bilateral cystoid macular oedema with intravitreal triamcinolone and subsequent bevacizumab in one eye and intravitreal bevacizumab, alone, in the fellow eye. Results....

purpose : the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of adjuvant treatments on contrast sensitivity in patients with clinically significant macular edema (csme) treated with macular photocoagulation (mpc). methods : forty eight eyes from 30 patients with non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (npdr) and csme were included in a prospective randomized clinical trial between august 2008 and ...

OBJECTIVES Recent reports of high endophthalmitis rates after intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide injection have raised concerns about the safety of this treatment. We sought to evaluate the effect of intravitreal triamcinolone injection on (1) the susceptibility to experimental bacterial endophthalmitis and (2) the subsequent therapeutic response to antibiotic treatment. DESIGN For the susc...

AIM To evaluate the effect of different doses of intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide on diffuse diabetic macular oedema. METHODS The prospective, randomised, double masked, clinical interventional study included 27 eyes (27 patients) with diffuse diabetic macular oedema. They were randomly divided into three study groups receiving an intravitreal injection of filtered triamcinolone acetonide...

PURPOSE To evaluate whether the addition of cataract surgery to an intravitreal injection of triamcinolone acetonide markedly increases frequency and spectrum of complications. METHODS The comparative nonrandomized clinical interventional investigation included a study group of 60 eyes (56 patients) undergoing cataract surgery and additionally receiving an intravitreal injection of about 20 m...

OBJECTIVE To investigate the clinical, histologic, and electroretinographic effects of intravitreal injection of triamcinolone acetonide suspension in the rabbit retina. METHODS Three groups of 6 rabbits each received intravitreal injections. Group 1 received 4 mg of triamcinolone acetonide, group 2 received an equal volume (0.1 mL) of the corticosteroid supernatant, and group 3 received 4 mg...
