[Using thalidomide against pathological neovascularization].

Harefuah, 2003
Thalidomide was first used during the 50's-60's, especially for morning sickness in pregnant women. It was found to be a powerful teratogen only years later and was banned from use. At the same time it was found to have anti-inflammatory and anti-angiogenic properties and was approved as treatment for leprosy. As such, thalidomide might be used against

Inhibition of Pathological Retinal Neovascularization by α-Defensins.

Blood, 2005
Abstract Proliferative retinopathies, such as those complicating prematurity and diabetes, are major causes of blindness. A prominent feature of these retinopathies is excessive neovascularization, which is orchestrated by the hypoxia-induced vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) stimulating endothelial cells, and the integrin ...

INTRAVITREAL BEVACIZUMAB FOR EXTRAFOVEAL CHOROIDAL NEOVASCULARIZATION SECONDARY TO PATHOLOGIC MYOPIA

Retina, 2013
To assess the effects of intravitreal bevacizumab injections in the treatment of extrafoveal choroidal neovascularization (CNV) associated with pathologic myopia.Patients diagnosed with pathologic myopia complicated by extrafoveal CNV were considered in this prospective, open-label interventional study.

Antivascular Endothelial Growth Factor for Choroidal Neovascularization in Pathologic Myopia

2010
Choroidal neovascularization (CNV) is the most common vision-threatening macular complication in pathologic myopia (PM) being detectable in 4-11% of the affected eyes. Treatment of PM-related CNV is still controversial. Intravitreal injections of antivascular endothelial growth factor molecules are able to inhibit the vascular endothelial growth factor

NAVIGATED LASER (NAVILAS) THERAPY FOR CHOROIDAL NEOVASCULAR AND HYPERPERMEABILITY PATHOLOGIES

RETINAL Cases & Brief Reports, 2015
To report the utility of navigated laser (NAVILAS) in the treatment of leaking areas in central serous chorioretinopathy and a feeder vessel in choroidal neovascular membrane.Two patients with choroidal lesions were treated with NAVILAS. The first patient had central serous chorioretinopathy with visible leaking angiographic spots, and the second had ...

[Early lesion of choroidal neovascularization. 2. Early lesion of choroidal neovascularization in pathological myopia].

Nippon Ganka Gakkai zasshi, 1993
We describe early features of choroidal neovascularization in 50 pathologically myopic eyes. The eyes were classified into three categories on the basis of degree of myopic chorioretinal degeneration in the posterior pole: mild diffuse atrophy, severe diffuse atrophy and focal atrophy.
