Effect of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor on early-stage post-vitrectomy macular edema in patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy

To investigate the effectiveness of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) therapy on post-vitrectomy macular edema (PVME) and determine the risk factors for PVME recovery. This retrospective study included 179 eyes of 179 patients who underwent pars plana vitrectomy for proliferative diabet...

Zusammenfassung:To investigate the effectiveness of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) therapy on post-vitrectomy macular edema (PVME) and determine the risk factors for PVME recovery. This retrospective study included 179 eyes of 179 patients who underwent pars plana vitrectomy for proliferative diabetic retinopathy and developed PVME within 3 months after surgery. Eyes were grouped according to postoperative anti-VEGF treatment. Central retinal thickness (CRT) decreased significantly from baseline to 3-month follow-up in groups with (509.9 ± 157.2 μm vs. 401.2 ± 172.1 μm, P
