Popis: | Purpose: To investigate the outcome of intravitreal ranibizumab and/or dexamethasone implant treatment for treatment of macular edema (ME) secondary to central or branch retinal vein occlusion (CRVO or BRVO) in a clinical setting. Methods: Retrospective analysis of consecutive patients followed for at least 6 months. Data recorded included the type of occlusion, initial and final visual acuity, and number of injections. Results: Sixty-five patients were included, 26 had CRVO and 39 BRVO. Mean (±SD) follow-up duration was 16 (±7.7) months. Twenty-four (36.9%) patients received ranibizumab in monotherapy, 19 patients (29.3%) dexamethasone in monotherapy, and 22 patients (33.8%) received successively both treatments. In dexamethasone-treated patients, mean (±SD) visual acuity gain was 5.8 ± 10.7 letters for BRVO and 16.8 ± 15.6 letters for CRVO. In ranibizumab-treated patients, mean (±SD) visual acuity gain was 9.2 ± 10 letters for BRVO and 18.2 ± 20.5 letters for CRVO. Conclusion: Both intravitreal ranibizumab and dexamethasone intravitreal implant could be used as first-line therapy for patients with ME secondary to retinal vein occlusion. |
