  • Title: The management of cytomegalovirus-associated retinal detachments.
    Author: Hairston RJ.
    Journal: J Int Assoc Physicians AIDS Care; 1996 May; 2(5):31-4. PubMed ID: 11363528.
    Abstract:
    Various surgical treatments exist for correction of retinal detachment resulting from cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection. The following methods of treatment are examined: laser photocoagulation, pneumatic retinopexy, scleral buckle, and vitrectomy. While earlier surgical attempts to correct retinal detachments were discouraging, recent attempts have been favorable. The differences in surgical results may be related to the time between diagnosis of a retinal detachment and surgical repair, indicating that early intervention may be associated with more favorable outcomes.
