Triancinolona intravítrea em vasculite retiniana: relato de caso

Abstract: Os autores relatam o caso de paciente com vasculite retiniana primária submetida à injeção intravítrea de triancinolona que apresentou melhora da inflamação e da acuidade visual logo após o procedimento. Observouse também melhora da neovascularização de íris e de papila, porém houve surgimento de tração vítreo-retiniana na área macular com o passar do tempo, levando à discreta piora da visão. Os autores discutem também as ações da triancinolona sobre a inflamação e a angiogênese, assim como os efeitos colatera… Show more

“…15 Despite the potentially vision-threatening complications such as transient or persistent intraocular high pressure, 16 cataract progression, 13 and aseptic 17 or septic endophthalmitis, 18 the gravity of the clinical condition of our patient seemed to justify this procedure. We performed a single injection of 4 mg of the commercially available triamcinolone acetonide through the pars plana along with transconjunctival cryotherapy.…”

“…Although it has frequently been a surgical approach, intravitreal corticosteroid injection has not been associated with this complication in the literature. [13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20] Ip et al, 20 retrospectively studying 13 patients treated with 4 mg intravitreal triamcinolone injections to control macular edema due to central retinal vein occlusion, reported a second injection in 3 patients and 1 eye that developed iris neovascularization after the treatment. In our patients, in the 2 days after the injection, the iris neovascularization was barely visible, the corneal edema was gone, and we could complete the PRP through clear media.…”

“…However, due to the outbreak of CHIKV infection in Brazil, the therapy with corticosteroids, as a way to manage the sequelae caused by this infection, has become quite frequent, being often applied for a prolonged time or with higher doses than recommended. Thus, the ophthalmological side effects of this medication, such as increased intraocular pressure (IOP) and the risk of cataract, may be attentive, and it may even be necessary to perform phacoemulsification (PHACO) (17,18). Moreover, it is important to emphasize the importance of maintaining clinical follow-up, aiming at the complete resolution of the condition and prevention of complications, given the reports of worsening of the symptoms, which can complicate total or partial loss of vision, especially when the disease is associated with optic neuritis and neuroretinitis (19).…”
