Abstract:
Objective To observe the efficacy of retinal inner limiting membrane peeling and intravitreal injection of triamcinolone acetonide for secondary epiretinal membrane.Methods Forty-two patients (42 eyes) with secondary epiretinal membrane underwent vitretinal surgery in our hospital from June 2011 to June 2015 were retrospectively studied.All patients underwent pars plana vitrectomy + epiretinal membrane peeling + retinal inner limiting membrane peeling and intravitreal injection of triamcinolone acetonide.The follow-up time was from 3.0 months to 18.0 months,averaged (8.3 ± 2.4) months.Postoperative best corrected visual acuity (BCVA),macular morphology and complications were observed.Resules At the final follow-up,BCVA improved in 30 eyes,unchanged in 8 eyes and decreased in 4 eyes,and there was significant difference compared with that before operation (t =3.145,P =0.000).The preoperative and postoperative thickness of meuroepithelium in the centual macular area were(315.62 ±132.12) μm and (233.42 ± 146.32) μm,and there was significant difference(t =4.322,P =0.000).Small amount of retinal hemorrhage happened in 6 eyes after operation,vitreous hemorrhage was in 1 eye,transient high intraocular pressure was in 6 eyes;Prepheral retinal hole occurred in 3 eyes,which were cured by laser treatment and C3F8 tamponade.Conclusion Intravitreal injection of triamcinolone acetonide can reduce the macular edema,decrease the reoccurrence of epiretinal membrane and imporve the visual acuity.The retinal inner limiting membrane peeling in secondary macular epiretinal membrane surgery can release the macular pucker,lifting and traction on the fovea,improve the metabolism of macular local,is conducive to the recovery of macular function.
