Article Synopsis
  • The study developed a new surgical technique for treating full-thickness macular holes (MH) associated with proliferative epiretinal structures, assessing its effectiveness in a clinical setting.
  • It involved 34 patients, with one group undergoing the new technique featuring an inverted internal limiting membrane (ILM)/epiretinal membrane (ERM) flap, and the other group using conventional peeling techniques.
  • Results showed that the new technique led to better visual acuity and more significant improvements in central retinal sensitivity, with a higher success rate in closing macular holes compared to traditional methods.

Purpose: The study aims to determine the indications and evaluate the results of primary vitrectomy in unfavorable progression of stage III active retinopathy of prematurity (ROP).

Material And Methods: The control group consisted of 17 patients (28 eyes) with unfavorable progression of stage III ROP, who had the disease progress after coagulation of the avascular retina and underwent the second stage of treatment - vitrectomy. The main group consisted of 5 patients (10 eyes) with unfavorable progression of stage III ROP, who underwent primary vitrectomy.

Objective: To characterize sleep disorders in children and adults with different forms of myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1), to assess their impact on cognitive functions, excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) and fatigue, to determine the relationship of EDS, fatigue, and sleep disorders with the quality of life of patients.

Material And Methods: The study included 48 adults and 9 children with confirmed DM1. Patients underwent an assessment of clinical and anamnestic data, neurological, cognitive status, severity of EDS, fatigue, quality of life according to international scales and questionnaires.

Purpose: To study the characteristics of venous circulation in the eyes with retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) observed in examination of blood flow in the central retinal vein and superior orbital vein in patients with different forms, stages and state of the disease.

Material And Methods: Color duplex scanning of the central retinal vein and superior orbital vein was performed using color Doppler imaging and pulsed Doppler sonography in 55 premature babies (55 eyes) with active ROP and 8 premature babies (8 eyes) with no signs of ROP. All babies included in the study were born at 25-32 weeks of gestation, their birth weight was 680-1760 g.

Aim: to develop a surgical procedure for large idiopathic macular holes (MH) that would involve creation of an original internal limiting membrane (ILM) flap to close the hole with.

Material And Methods: Nineteen patients aged from 59 to 71 years with stage 3 idiopathic MH (by J. Gass) were enrolled.
