Purpose:
Present an updated technique for surgical implantation of revakinagene taroretcel.
Methods:
The surgical technique is described with supplemental video included.
Results:
Surgical implantation of revakinagene taroretcel was safely performed without adverse events. The capsule was positioned into the vitreous cavity, the associated fixation loop was appropriately secured to the sclera using a double-armed 9-0 polypropylene suture, the sclerotomy was closed with 9-0 nylon sutures, and the conjunctiva was closed to ensure proper coverage of the sutures and insertion site.
Conclusion:
The described surgical implantation technique was developed using learnings from the associated Phase 2 and 3 trials and implemented to maximize the likelihood of long-term capsule stability and minimize the risk of adverse events including device extrusion.
