Abstract

The fluocinolone acetonide (Retisert™) implant is an approved therapy for chronic, posterior, non-infectious uveitis. Continued episodes of inflammation can occur in patients after device implantation and suspected Retisert™ malfunction has been previously reported. We report a case of a patient who continued to have inflammation after Retisert™ implantation, which subsided after device exchange with a normally functioning explant after detailed manufacturer analysis.

摘要

氟轻松（Retisert™）植入剂是一种已获批的用于治疗慢性、后部、非传染性葡萄膜炎的疗法。在器械植入后，患者仍可能会出现持续的炎症发作，此前曾有报道怀疑 Retisert™ 发生故障。我们报告了一例患者在植入 Retisert™ 后仍持续存在炎症，在详细的制造商分析后，用正常工作的植入物进行器械更换后，炎症消退。
