Proliferative vitreoretinopathy
Zdravniški Vestnik, 2005 Background: Proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) is a disease characterized by formation of membranes on both surfaces of the retina and vitreous base. PVR is a wound healing response which is inadequate and uncontrolled in the eye. Identifying the risk

Preoperative electrophysiological characterization of patients with primary macula-involving rhegmatogenous retinal detachment [PDF]
, 2018 Purpose: To determine 1) which components of retinal function are impaired after rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, 2) which outer retinal pathways (rod- or cone-driven) are more severely affected, and 3) whether there is concomitant inner retinal ...

Experimental proliferative vitreoretinopathy
Yeungnam University Journal of Medicine, 1991 The authors performed experimental study to produce proliferative vitreoretinopathy by intravitreal injection of homologous fibroblasts in pigmented rabbits. Twenty four eyes of 12 rabbits were divided into control and experimental groups. In experimental group, the eyes were pretreated with expanding gas, perfluoropropane for the vitrectomy.

Lipid peroxidation in proliferative vitreoretinopathies [PDF]
Eye, 1999 To study the lipid hydroperoxide activity in vasoproliferative and fibroproliferative retinal disorders.Vitreous body samples from patients undergoing vitrectomy because of proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR; n = 12) or proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR; n = 15), and rhegmatogenous retinal detachment/macular hole/epiretinal membranes as the ...

The impact of octreotide in experimental proliferative vitreoretinopathy
Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2013 Aims: This study aims to investigate the effects of intravitreal octreotide on the growth factors, which have significant roles in the pathogenesis of proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR). Settings and Design: An experimental trial.
