We report a case of rapid regression of extensive posterior capsule neovascularization in a 67-year-old diabetic male patient, who developed posterior capsule opacity with neovascularization one year post cataract surgery, after a single injection of intravitreal bevacizumab (Avastin) followed by neodymium:YAG capsulotomy. Rapid regression of the posterior capsule neovascularization, and visual improvement was observed 9 days after the intervention. Posterior capsulotomy was performed successfully without bleeding. Prior to posterior capsulotomy, intravitreal bevacizumab can result in rapid and dramatic regression of posterior capsule neovascularization.
我们报告了一例67岁糖尿病男性患者广泛后囊膜新生血管快速消退的病例。该患者在白内障手术后一年出现后囊膜混浊并伴有新生血管,在单次玻璃体内注射贝伐单抗(阿瓦斯汀)后行钕:钇铝石榴石激光后囊膜切开术。干预后9天观察到后囊膜新生血管快速消退且视力改善。后囊膜切开术成功实施,无出血。在进行后囊膜切开术之前,玻璃体内注射贝伐单抗可导致后囊膜新生血管快速且显著消退。
