Epiretinal membrane fragments: the origin of recurrent membranes after epiretinal membrane peeling

Canadian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2023
To investigate the participation of residual fragments of epiretinal membranes (ERMs) in recurrent ERMs after pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) for ERMs.Retrospective comparison study.Consecutive 195 eyes of 195 patients with ERMs who underwent PPV.Internal limiting membrane (ILM) was removed without use of Brilliant Blue G (BBG) dye in any eyes until May ...

IDIOPATHIC EPIRETINAL MEMBRANE

Retina, 2014
Idiopathic epiretinal membrane (iERM) is a fibrocellular membrane that proliferates on the inner surface of the retina at the macular area. Membrane contraction is an important sight-threatening event and is due to fibrotic remodeling.Analysis of the current literature regarding the epidemiology, clinical features, and pathogenesis of iERM and fibrotic

Macular Epiretinal Membranes

Seminars in Ophthalmology, 2000
Epiretinal membranes (ERM) are a common finding in older patients. Although they may be associated with numerous clinical conditions, most epiretinal membranes occur in the absence of ocular pathology. Patients symptoms range from asymptotic to complaints of severe vision loss and metamorphopsia.

Surgery of Epiretinal Membranes

2015
Vitreous surgery techniques can be used to remove epiretinal tissue associated with various ocular conditions when this tissue is covering or distorting the macula and causing visual loss. The surgical technique and results of the operation are similar in cases with various basic causes.

Epiretinal Macular Edema Associated With Thick Epiretinal Membranes

Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging Retina, 2013
High-resolution imaging with spectral-domain optical coherence tomography has identified an unusual group of epiretinal membranes (ERMs) in the presence of lamellar macular holes. These ERMs are unusually thick. The authors present the case of a patient with age-related macular degeneration who developed edema within a thickened ERM in both eyes after ...

Plasminogen activation in epiretinal membranes

Graefe's Archive for Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology, 1996
Formation of epiretinal membranes occurs in proliferative vitreoretinopathy, macular pucker and after penetrating trauma. Epiretinal membrane formation includes cell migration and proliferation, extracellular matrix formation and tissue contraction. Generally in scar tissue formation, the production of new extracellular matrix occurs concomitantly with

Complications of surgery for epiretinal membranes

Graefe's Archive for Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology, 1998
Surgery has been successful in removing epiretinal membranes (ERM) from the macula, allowing some improvement in vision in 80-90% of patients; however, complications are relatively frequent. We conducted a retrospective study to evaluate the rate of peri- and postoperative complications and their influence on functional outcome of eyes having been ...

Suction Elevation of Epiretinal Membranes

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1992
To the Editor. —The surgical treatment of patients with macular pucker from epiretinal membrane formation has become increasingly common with the advent of new vitreoretinal techniques. Typically, after vitrectomy is performed, an edge of the epiretinal tissue is elevated with a bent needle or membrane pick, enabling the membrane to be grasped and ...

Epiretinal membrane with macular pucker

Clinical and Experimental Optometry, 2000
BACKGROUND: Epiretinal membranes are a common finding in people over the age of 50 years. Clinically, they usually cause minor visual distortion. However, in some patients, there may be a significant visual loss and/or metamorphopsia and surgery may be required in more severe cases.
