    (Acıbadem Mehmet Ali Aydınlar Üniversitesi, 2019-10-01) Özkan, Berna; Karabaş, Levent; Tuğan, Büşra; Altıntaş, Özgül
    ABSTRACT Purpose: To evaluate the safety and effectivity of limited vitrectomy in patients with epiretinal membrane. Methods: We included 58 consecutive patients who underwent epiretinal membrane surgery without performing a complete peripheral vitreous removal. The improvement in visual acuity, the incidence of retinal breaks and detachment; anatomical results and intraoperative and postoperative complications of this technique were evaluated. Results: The median visual acuity was 0.4(0.3-0.5) before the surgery, and it was 0.6 (0.3-0.8) after the surgery (p=0.016). Prophylactic laser photocoagulation was performed in 14(24,13%) patients during surgery. Retinal breaks and detachments did not occur in any of our patients. We did not observe proliferative vitreoretinopathy or surgery- related major complications in any patient. Conclusion: Limited vitrectomy without removing peripheral vitreous is safe and effective in idiopathic epiretinal membrane surgery. It reduces the risk of peripheral retinal breaks and retinal detachment.

    Toksoplazma Koryoretinitine Bağlı Geniş Seröz Makula Dekolmanı: Olgu Sunumu
    (Acıbadem Mehmet Ali Aydınlar Üniversitesi, 2020-02-02) Yılmaz Tuğan, Büşra; Karabaş, Levent; Özkan, berna
    ÖZET Toxoplasma gondii koryoretinite sebep olabilen zorunlu intraselüler parazittir. Çoğunlukla kendine sınırlı bir hastalık olmasına rağmen optik sinir ya da maküla tutulumuna ve/veya ağır vitreus inflamasyonuna sekonder gör me keskinliğini azaltabilir. Enfeksiyonun ‘klasik’ bulgusu pigmente koryoretinal skardır. Kenarında tüysü beyaz, nekrotizan retinokoroidit odağı görülebilir. Biz burada hızlı ve uygun bir tedavi sonucu anatomik ve fonksiyonel başarı elde ettiğimiz geniş seröz maküla dekolmanı ile komplike olmuş bir toksoplazma koyoretiniti olgusunu sunmayı amaçladık.
