Title: Choroidal edema associated with retinal detachment repair: experimental and clinical correlation. Author: Aaberg TM, Maggiano JM. Journal: Mod Probl Ophthalmol; 1979; 20():6-15. PubMed ID: 121324. Abstract: Experimental owl monkey data and prospective clinical data is presented, demonstrating the correlation of serous-choroidal edema with the extent of vortex obstruction and the additive factors of sudden hypotony from drainage and cryotherapy. Older eyes are more susceptible for developing this phenomenon of choroidal edema. The extreme extent of vortex venous stasis is that of venous stasis anterior segment ischemia demonstrated in two clinical cases.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
