Microcystoid macular edema in epiretinal membrane: not a retrograde maculopathy.

Am J Ophthalmol

January 2025

Department of biomedical sciences, Humanitas University, Pieve Emanuele, Milan, Italy.; Ophthalmology Department, Humanitas Gavazzeni, Bergamo, Italy.

Purpose: To investigate the incidence, clinical spectrum and pathophysiology of microcystoid macular edema (MME) in two cohorts of patients with epiretinal membrane (ERM) and idiopathic full thickness macular hole (FTMH).

Design: Single-center, Retrospective, interventional, cohort study.

Methods: Review of clinical charts, structural and en-face optical coherence tomographty (OCT) and fluorescein angiography (FA) imaging of ERM and FTMH eyes which underwent surgery with pars plana vitrectomy and internal limiting membrane (ILM) peel, with a minimum follow-up of 6 months.

Background: Retinoblastoma (Rb) is the most common intraocular malignancy of childhood. The prognosis in Rb directly relates to the spread of disease beyond the eye, particularly to the central nervous system. Therefore, until the recent past, surgically entering an eye with active or recently active Rb was absolutely contraindicated in most centres around the world due to the risk of iatrogenic extraocular spread.

Department of Community Medicine, Patna Medical College, Patna 800004, Bihar, India.

The recently published mini-review article by Miotti is an effort to clarify various aspects regarding the choice between fat grafts and fillers in facial aesthetic surgery. One of the complications associated with the administration of fillers is the possibility of vascular injury and spread of the dermal filler into the orbit, causing unexpected effects at a site distant from that of the initial injection, including ophthalmoplegia, ptosis and even visual compromise. Acute vision loss following filler injection is a devastating complication, occurring in up to 0.

Purpose: To present a novel intraoperative technique using a flute needle to induce posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) in pediatric retinal cases.

Methods: Following 23-gauge pars plana vitrectomy in pediatric eyes with complex vitreoretinal disease, triamcinolone is applied for staining, and vitreous hydro-dissection is performed. A flute needle containing basic salt solution (BSS) is introduced to separate the thin residual posterior vitreous cortex from the retina near the vascular arcades.
