Because of the markedly greater cumulative lifetime incidence of choroidal nevi, the results of this analysis suggest considerable size overlap between larger nevi and smaller melanomas. Attempts to classify small melanocytic choroidal tumors clinically as benign nevi versus malignant melanomas on the basis of tumor size appear likely to result in multiple misclassifications.
This retrospective study shows similar CMT reductions with DEX implant treatment for CRVO-related macular edema in vitrectomized and non-vitrectomized eyes.
Endoscopic vitrectomy with pars plana glaucoma tube shunt implantation may be considered in the management of uncontrolled IOP in patients with media opacity. Achieving IOP control prior to attempted anterior segment reconstruction in these severely diseased eyes may increase the success rate and decrease the complexity of subsequent anterior reconstruction procedures.
Aflibercept may allow a modest extension of the treatment interval, but cost makes IVA an expensive alternative without a visual benefit compared with IVB in patients with active wet AMD.
The results suggest that combined Trabectome and pars plana vitrectomy seems effective in the management of glaucoma in patients with visually significant retina pathology.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
