Purpose:
To show surgical results of the intraoperative 3D fluorescein angiography-guided pars plana vitrectomy for branch retinal vein occlusion with vitreous hemorrhage and neovascularization elsewhere.
Methods:
The NGENUITY 3D visualization system was used for the digital-assisted vitrectomy. Three-dimensional fluorescein angiography-guided pars plana vitrectomy was performed in three patients with branch retinal vein occlusion with vitreous hemorrhage and neovascularization elsewhere.
Results:
In all eyes, the scatter retinal photocoagulations for a nonperfusion area, depicted as hypofluorescein, and the segmentation and delamination of the perivascular fibrovascular proliferative membrane, depicted as hyperfluorescein, could be safely performed on the same screen while implementing intraoperative 3D fluorescein angiography.
Conclusion:
Three-dimensional fluorescein angiography-guided pars plana vitrectomy, a novel approach that fully uses the advantages of digital-assisted vitrectomy, can be one of the useful techniques for the treatment of branch retinal vein occlusion with vitreous hemorrhage and neovascularization elsewhere.
