Retinotomy Closure Following Subretinal Stem Cell Transplant With a 30-Gauge Needle. Ophthalmic surgery, lasers & imaging retina Ludwig, C. A., Leng, T. 2016; 47 (9): 869-873Abstract
The authors report two cases of posterior retinotomy closure following subretinal stem cell transplantation for age-related macular degeneration with a 30-gauge needle - a larger bore needle than those used in prior studies. Partial retinotomy closure was seen on optical coherence tomography within 24 hours in one patient, whereas complete closure occurred by the 5-month and 1-year follow-up visits. A trace retinal hemorrhage occurred in one case, with resolution by 12 weeks. These findings demonstrate the likelihood of uncomplicated, spontaneous retinotomy closure following subretinal stem cell transplantation with a 30-gauge needle.
