A patient with combined diabetic macular edema (DME) and vitreomacular traction (VMT) was treated with a series of intravitreal aflibercept (Eylea; Regeneron, Tarrytown, NY) injections. The VMT progressively released during the course of the five intravitreal injections. This release may have been spontaneous, due to a nonspecific mechanical effect from the injections, or due to a pharmacologic effect from the aflibercept. While treating DME, anti-vascular endothelial growth factor agents may have an additional benefit in releasing VMT. [Ophthalmic Surg Lasers Imaging Retina. 2016;47:477-481.].
一名患有糖尿病性黄斑水肿(DME)合并玻璃体黄斑牵引(VMT)的患者接受了一系列玻璃体内注射阿柏西普(阿瓦斯汀;再生元公司,纽约州塔里敦)治疗。在五次玻璃体内注射过程中,VMT逐渐缓解。这种缓解可能是自发的,由于注射产生的非特异性机械效应,或者是由于阿柏西普的药理作用。在治疗DME时,抗血管内皮生长因子药物在缓解VMT方面可能有额外益处。[《眼科手术、激光与视网膜影像》。2016年;47:477 - 481。]
