Pediatric choroidal neovascularization: Etiology and treatment outcomes with anti-vascular endothelial growth factors.

Purpose: To describe the etiology and treatment outcomes of choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in a pediatric population with intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGF).

Methods: Retrospective single center interventional case series. A total of 26 eyes of 23 consecutive pediatric patients with CNV of various etiologies were treated with intravitreal injection of anti-VEGF agents.

Optic Disc Pit Maculopathy: One-Year Outcomes of Pars Plana Vitrectomy with Foveal Sparing Inverted Internal Limiting Membrane Flap.

Purpose To evaluate the anatomical and visual outcomes in optic disc pit maculopathy following pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with inverted internal limiting membrane (ILM) flap Methods Retrospective interventional case series of 10 patients diagnosed with serous macular detachment secondary to optic disc pit who underwent PPV with inverted ILM flap and were followed up for a year. Results A p-value of less than 0.05 was defined as statistically significant.

Autologous Free Internal Limiting Membrane Flap for Optic Nerve Head Pit With Maculopathy.

Optic disc pits (ODPs) are associated with serous macular detachment (SMD), which causes visual loss in 25% to 75% patients with ODPs. There are various modalities of noninvasive and invasive treatment options; however, the best method of treatment is to seal the optic disc to prevent further egress of fluid into the subretinal space. The authors report a technique that involves sealing of ODPs with autologous free flap of the internal limiting membrane (ILM).

Risk of Tractional Retinal Detachment Following Intravitreal Bevacizumab Along with Subretinal Fluid Drainage and Cryotherapy for Stage 3B Coats' Disease.

Purpose: To review the surgical outcomes of intravitreal bevacizumab (IVB) along with subretinal fluid drainage with cryotherapy in patients with stage 3B Coats' disease.

Materials And Methods: A retrospective study of seven cases of stage 3B Coats' disease, who underwent subretinal fluid drainage with cryopexy, from May 2011 to March 2014. Five eyes received additional IVB at the end of surgery.
