[Cystoid macular edema after rhegmatogenous retinal detachment surgery]. 1991

Department of Ophthalmology, Zhejiang Medical University, Hangzhou.

51 eyes of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment successfully reattached were prospectively studied with regard to the incidence of cystoid macular edema (CME). 14 eyes had CME 6 weeks after surgery, representing an incidence of 27.5%. No correlation was observed between CME and foveal involvement of the detachment, age of the patient, or the amount of subretinal fluid drained. CME is an important cause of postoperative visual impairment, and diagnosis is confirmed by fluorescein angiography. The angiographic features and classification of CME are described.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008269 Macular Edema Fluid accumulation in the outer layer of the MACULA LUTEA that results from intraocular or systemic insults. It may develop in a diffuse pattern where the macula appears thickened or it may acquire the characteristic petaloid appearance referred to as cystoid macular edema. Although macular edema may be associated with various underlying conditions, it is most commonly seen following intraocular surgery, venous occlusive disease, DIABETIC RETINOPATHY, and posterior segment inflammatory disease.

D012163 Retinal Detachment Separation of the inner layers of the retina (neural retina) from the pigment epithelium. Retinal detachment occurs more commonly in men than in women, in eyes with degenerative myopia, in aging and in aphakia. It may occur after an uncomplicated cataract extraction, but it is seen more often if vitreous humor has been lost during surgery.
