Fluorescein angiography after retinal detachment microsurgery.

The eyes of 78 patients who underwent retinal detachment microsurgery (82 eyes) were prospectively evaluated postoperatively with fluorescein angiography. Of these 14.6% showed angiographic evidence of cystoid macular oedema (CMO.

[Acute panendothelial retinal leakage in juvenile diabetes (author's transl)].

Four cases of acute panendothelial retinal leakage in juvenile diabetes are presented. One patient showed acute disc swelling mimicking optic disc new vessels, one had acute cystoid maculopathy, two had both diffuse retinal leakage and optic disc edema. Acute disc swelling and acute cystoid maculopathy in juvenile diabetes are probably variations of the same clinical entity.

[Topographic study of angiographic lesions in central serous retinopathy (author's transl)].

The 595 angiographic lesions observed in 233 eyes of 169 patients affected with central serous retinopathy have been classified upon their localization. 498 angiographic lesions (83.7 percent) are located within a three optic disc diameter area centered by the foveola.

[Gradual disappearance of macular hyalin verrucosities].

Spontaneous gradual absorption of macular colloid bodies can be seen in some patients on retinographies and angiographies routinely made at regular intervals during several years. In some cases the colloid bodies become confluent before resorbing. Confluence of drusen may lead to a large hyalin detachment of the pigment epithelium which should be differienciated from serous detachment.
