BACKGROUND: There is currently a widespread use of intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide (IVTA) for age-related macular degeneration, diabetic macular edema, cystoid macular edema secondary to retinal vein occlusions, and uveitis. The aim of this investigation was to assess the rates of various complications associated with this treatment and to determine which factors are associated with the development of these complications. METHODS: A retrospective interventional case series of all patients from one retina specialist undergoing IVTA was conducted in a clinical setting from 2002 to 2005. All disease entities were included. Patients were followed for a mean of 9.5 months after receiving 4 mg (0.1 mL) of nonfiltered triamcinolone acetonide (TA). All complications associated with the injection procedure or with the TA were noted. RESULTS: Two hundred and twenty-three (223) eyes of 192 patients received a total of 336 IVTA injections between 2002 and 2005. The mean age was 73.3 years and mean follow-up was 9.5 months. A single injection was performed in 144 eyes (64.6%); 2 IVTAs in 55 eyes (24.7%); 3 IVTAs in 16 eyes (7.2%), and 3.6% of eyes had more than 3 injections at a minimal interval of 3 months. The only immediate complication was a single injection (0.3%) associated with a temporary occlusion of the central retinal artery, which opened immediately following anterior paracentesis. Late complications included endophthalmitis in 1 of 336 (0.3%) injections and a steroid response requiring glaucoma medication in 60 of 192 patients (31.3%). In patients with preexisting glaucoma, 58.8% required additional glaucoma medication. Glaucoma-filtering surgery was required in 2 of 192 patients (1.0%). CONCLUSIONS: In the study center, the IVTA is extremely safe in patients without a history of glaucoma. However, patients with preexisting glaucoma with progressive optic neuropathy must be treated with great caution. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To report side effects after intravitreal high-dose reinjections of triamcinolone acetonide. DESIGN: Clinical interventional case series. METHODS: Forty-six patients (47 eyes) received at least two intravitreal injections of approximately 20 to 25 mg triamcinolone acetonide for treatment of diabetic macular edema (n = 6 eyes), exudative age-related macular degeneration (n = 23), and other diseases. Intervals between injections were 6.7 +/- 3.4 months, 8.0 +/- 4.6 months, and 10.2 months, respectively, before the second (n = 47 eyes), third (n = 9), and fourth (n = 2) injection. Mean follow-up was 20.7 +/- 8.9 months. RESULTS: After no reinjection were complications detected, other than those known to occur after a single intravitreal injection. After the first, second, and third injection, respectively, intraocular pressure remained normal in 24 (51%), 25 (53%), and 5 (56%) eyes. CONCLUSIONS: Intravitreal high-dosage reinjections of triamcinolone acetonide may be tolerated within a mean follow-up of approximately 21 months. 相似文献

Intraocular concentration and pharmacokinetics of triamcinolone acetonide after a single intravitreal injection 总被引:45,自引:0,他引:45
PURPOSE: To describe the pharmacokinetics occurring after the direct injection of triamcinolone acetonide into the vitreous humor of humans. DESIGN: Interventional case series. PARTICIPANTS: Five patients who received a single 4-mg intravitreal injection of triamcinolone acetonide. METHODS: An aqueous humor sample was obtained from 5 eyes via an anterior chamber paracentesis at days 1, 3, 10, 17, and 31 after injection. At each visit, visual acuity and intraocular pressure were measured and indirect ophthalmoscopy was performed. A fluorescein angiogram was carried out at day 10. Concentrations were determined using high performance liquid chromatography; pharmacokinetic analysis was carried out using PK Analyst, an iterative, nonlinear, weighted, least-squares regression program. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Intraocular concentrations of triamcinolone were measured and population pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated. RESULTS: Pharmacokinetic data followed a two-compartment model. Peak aqueous humor concentrations ranged from 2151 to 7202 ng/ml, half-lives from 76 to 635 hours, and the integral of the area under the concentration-time curve (AUC(0-t)) from 231 to 1911 ng/h per milliliter. After a single intravitreal injection of triamcinolone, the mean elimination half-life was 18.6 days in nonvitrectomized patients. The half-life in a patient who had undergone a vitrectomy was shorter at 3.2 days. CONCLUSIONS: There was considerable intrasubject variation among peak concentration, AUC(0-t) values, and elimination half-lives. After intravitreal injection, measurable concentrations of triamcinolone would be expected to last for approximately 3 months (93 +/- 28 days) in the absence of a vitrectomy. Because triamcinolone pharmacokinetics were characterized only in elderly patients with macular edema, the results cannot be extrapolated to other patient populations. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide (TA) for treating macular edema secondary to non-infectious uveitis. METHODS: Retrospective review of sixteen patients (20 eyes) with chronic cystoid macular edema (CME) as a consequence of controlled intermediate uveitis, posterior uveitis, or panuveitis who received at least one intravitreal injection of TA. Main outcome measures were visual acuity (VA), intraocular pressure (IOP), formation or progression of an existing cataract, and CME resolution during the follow-up period. RESULTS: At last follow-up, VA showed improvement (compared to baseline) in 11 eyes (55%), deterioration in three eyes (15%), remained completely unchanged in one eye (5%), and showed improvement initially but returned to baseline levels in five eyes (25%). At last follow-up, CME had relapsed or was still present in 10 of the eyes (50%). The remaining eyes showed complete resolution of the CME, without evidence of recurrence during the follow-up time. Mean VA at last follow-up showed statistically significant improvement (p = 0.02) in nonvitrectomized eyes (mean baseline VA: 1.14 +/- 0.58; mean final VA: 0.96 +/- 0.66) compared to the almost unaltered mean visual acuity for vitrectomized eyes (mean baseline VA: 0.76 +/- 0.41; mean final VA: 0.71 +/- 0.48)(p = 0.40, paired samples t-test). Elevation of IOP was transient in all cases and responded well to topical medications, except for one patient who required placement of an Ahmed valve. Preexisting cataract progressed in three of the 15 phakic eyes (20%). One patient developed a retinal detachment and required additional surgery to reattach it. Patients were followed for a mean of 34 weeks (median: 32 weeks; range: 19-56 weeks). CONCLUSIONS: Intravitreal TA may play a role in the treatment of uveitis-related CME. Further controlled studies are necessary to test this hypothesis. 相似文献

Intravitreal preservative-free triamcinolone acetonide for the treatment of macular oedema 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
PURPOSE: To report the use of commercially available preservative-free intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide for the treatment of macular oedema due to retinal vascular diseases. DESIGN: Retrospective interventional case series. METHODS: Charts of eyes that received 4 mg preservative-free intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide for the treatment of persistent macular oedema due to retinal vascular diseases were reviewed. Patients were included if they had a follow-up of at least 3 months. Visual acuity, intraocular pressure, presence of an anterior chamber reaction, and mean macular thickness on optical coherence tomography (OCT) were recorded. RESULTS: A total of 10 eyes of 10 patients were identified. Visual acuity improved by a mean of 1.1 Snellen lines at 1 month and 1.3 lines at 3 months. Macular thickness on OCT decreased by a mean of 183.5 microm at 1 month (P<0.0001). Intraocular pressure increased from a mean of 13.5 mmHg at baseline to 15.3 at 1 month, and 14.5 at 3 months. Only the 1-month change in intraocular pressure was statistically significant (P=0.0274). There were no cases of endophthalmitis, anterior chamber reaction, or retinal detachment. CONCLUSION: In this small retrospective, noncomparative series, commercially available preservative-free intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide had no adverse outcomes. Macular oedema was noted to decrease following treatment. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To report a case of a pseudohypopyon that developed after intravitreal injection of triamcinolone acetonide for choroidal neovascularization from age-related macular degeneration. METHODS: Observational case report. RESULTS: A 62-year-old woman received an intravitreal injection of triamcinolone acetonide for the treatment of a choroidal neovascular membrane that developed as a result of age-related macular degeneration. A layer of yellowish deposits was observed in the anterior chamber 1 day after the injection. The patient denied any pain or reduced vision, and there was no redness noted on examination. The deposits cleared spontaneously on the fourth postoperative day. CONCLUSIONS: Pseudohypopyon may develop after intravitreal injection of triamcinolone acetonide. Distinguishing this from a true hypopyon is important because the treatment and prognosis are very different for the two conditions. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Intravitreal injection of triamcinolone acetonide appears to be a promising treatment for a variety of proliferative, edematous, neovascular and inflammatory ocular disorders. Reported complications include intraocular pressure (IOP) elevation, cataract formation, retinal detachment, vitreous hemorrhage and endophthalmitis. The purpose of this investigation was to report the complications of intravitreal triamcinolone injection that may be attributable to the injection procedure or to the corticosteroid suspension. METHODS: A total of 212 eyes of 180 patients who underwent intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide injection for various indications were enrolled. All patients received 8 mg/0.2 mL of triamcinolone. A total of 270 injections were performed by the same surgeon under topical anesthesia. The patients were followed for a mean of 9.2 months. Complications related to the injection procedure and to the corticosteroid were recorded. RESULTS: The most common complication encountered during follow-up was transient elevation of the IOP above 21 mm Hg (44 eyes [20.8%]). The average IOP rose by 28.5%, 38.2%, 16.7% and 4.2% from baseline at 1, 3, 6 and 9 months respectively. The mean IOP values at 1, 3 and 6 months were statistically significantly higher than the mean preinjection value (p < 0.001). Fourteen eyes (6.6%) had cataract progression and underwent cataract surgery with intraocular lens implantation. Endophthalmitis developed in one eye (0.5%); the patient underwent vitrectomy with silicone oil injection. Pseudoendophthalmitis occurred in one eye (0.5%), and pseudohypopyon was observed in two eyes (0.9%). INTERPRETATION: Intravitreal triamcinolone injection was effective in a variety of ocular disorders. Patients should be monitored closely given the potential for complications of the injection procedure or the corticosteroid suspension. 相似文献

AIM
To evaluate the retinal safety of various doses of intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide (TA) in rabbits.Methods
Thirty New Zealand albino rabbits were divided into five groups (six animals each). In group 1 (control group), each animal received a single intravitreal injection of 0.1mL phosphate buffered saline. In groups 2, 3, 4 and 5, each rabbit received a single intravitreal injection of 4, 8, 16 and 32mg of TA, respectively. Each dose was contained in 0.1mL phosphate buffered saline. Clinical ocular examinations were performed before the injection and on the 1st, 3rd, 10th and 17th post-injection days. A standard dark adapted electroretinogram (ERG) was obtained before injection and on the 3rd, 10th and 17th post-injection days. After 17d, animals were sacrificed and their eyes prepared for pathological examination.RESULTS
By monitoring ERG as a functional index for the retina, intravitreal injection of 4mg TA showed no significant ERG changes. At doses of 8, 16 and 32, hyper-abnormal responses in a- and b- waves of ERG were detected on the 3rd post-injection day. These changes gradually returned back to normal limits after 17d. Histopathological examination of the retina of all animals showed no pathological changes.CONCLUSION
High doses of intravitreal TA seemed to have enhancing effects on the retinal function with gradual return to normal limits with no pathological changes detected in examined eyes. 相似文献18.
