[Treatment of complications of venous retinal thromboses with argon laser]. 1979

H Saraux, and H Offret, and B Nou

The results of argon laser photocoagulation performed on 20 eyes with ischemic or edematous central retinal vein occlusion were analyzed. In patients with ischemic occlusion, neovascularization improved after treatment but they derived no benefit as far as visual acuity is concerned. In the group with enematous occlusion, visual acuity and macular edema improved after treatment. However, 6 of 8 patients of this group had prior urokinase treatment.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007511 Ischemia A hypoperfusion of the BLOOD through an organ or tissue caused by a PATHOLOGIC CONSTRICTION or obstruction of its BLOOD VESSELS, or an absence of BLOOD CIRCULATION. Ischemias
D007834 Lasers An optical source that emits photons in a coherent beam. Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation (LASER) is brought about using devices that transform light of varying frequencies into a single intense, nearly nondivergent beam of monochromatic radiation. Lasers operate in the infrared, visible, ultraviolet, or X-ray regions of the spectrum.
