| Zusammenfassung: | Copyright 2019, SLACK Incorporated. Myopic submacular hemorrhage (SMH) usually arises from either a break in Bruch's membrane (lacquer cracks) that damages the underlying choriocapillaris or the development of a choroidal neovascular membrane (CNVM) at the sites of prior lacquer cracks.1,2 In pathologic myopia (PM), axial elongation leads to thinning of the choroid and retinal pigment epithelium, predisposing to rupture of Bruch's membrane.3 If large hemorrhages involving the fovea are left untreated, subretinal hemorrhage and CNVM can cause devastating long-term vision loss due to irreversible retinal atrophy.4 In this video, the authors describe their technique of using a subretinal injection of recombinant tissue plasminogen activator with a concurrent gas tamponade to displace SMH |
