Epimacular Inverted Retinal Flap Simulating an Epiretinal Membrane
Case Report Abstract A 66-year-old man was referred for management of a visually significant epiretinal membrane (ERM) with persistent cystoid macular edema after surgery for recurrent retinal detachment with proliferative vitreoretinopathy. The membrane was noted to be particularly thick and vascularized on preoperative optical coherence tomography. During the subsequent vitrectomy, the “membrane” was found to be an inverted retinal flap and successfully removed.
An Update on Surgical Viewing Systems
Adequate visualization is paramount to any successful vitreoretinal surgery. Although visualization may be impacted by various anatomic factors, the viewing system that the surgeon uses intraoperatively plays a significant role in achieving adequate visualization and, ultimately, successful surgical outcomes. The initial viewing systems that were used early in the development of pars plana vitrectomy provided a very limited angle of visualization.
Aldeyra begins phase 3 proliferative vitreoretinopathy prevention trial
Aldeyra has enrolled the first patient in a phase 3 clinical trial of ADX-2191 for the prevention of recurrent retinal detachment due to proliferative vitreoretinopathy, according to a press release. The two-part, multicenter, randomized, controlled, adaptive, phase 3 GUARD trial is evaluating the efficacy of ADX-2191 (intravitreal methotrexate) vs. standard of care.
Surgical Management of an Externally Protruding, Perforating Intraocular Foreign Body
Dean Eliott The authors describe a complex perforating injury. There is an entrance wound, an intraocular foreign body, and an exit wound. The presence of an intraocular foreign body is not typical for a perforating injury, but this unique injury consists of a long, metallic foreign body that is embedded in the cornea and the retina and, therefore, spans the length of the globe.
Aicardi Syndrome
A well-developed and well-nourished 4-month-old female infant developed intractable seizures and nystagmus. Right eye fundus examination showed normal posterior pole and few, small, mid-peripheral chorioretinal lesions. The left eye was significant for glial tuft (Figure 1A, thin arrow) and chorioretinal lacunae (Figure 1A, thick arrows).
Case 20-2016 - A 50-Year-Old Man with Cloudy Vision, Hearing Loss, and Unsteadiness
A 50-year-old man with psoriatic arthritis and HIV infection presented with cloudy vision, decreased hearing, and gait instability. Two months earlier, the patient had begun taking antiretroviral medications. A diagnostic test result was received. This case was presented at Ophthalmology Grand Rounds at Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary. Disclosure forms provided by the authors are available with the full text of this article at NEJM.org.
