Subject field(s)
  • Eye Surgery
CONT

When foveal detachment occurs in eyes with MF [myopic foveoschisis], surgery is necessary to prevent further deterioration. Vitrectomy and complete ILM peeling have been suggested to flatten the retina, but postoperative MH [macular holes] has been reported to occur in approximately 20% of cases. ILM peeling removes the Müller cone cells, which form the base of the fovea and serve as a plug that binds the photoreceptor cells in the foveola and supports the foveola structurally. The stretched retina in a highly myopic eye can easily induce a MH without this structure. To prevent postoperative MH, fovea-sparing ILM peeling was introduced. Studies have shown that this technique can prevent MH formation very effectively. A piece of ILM is preserved in the center of fovea to prevent damage to the Müller cone cells during surgery ...

[...] la technique de pelage de la MLI avec épargne fovéolaire. Le pelage de la MLI est initié à distance du centre de la fovéa [...] Le pelage de la MLI est ensuite poursuivi jusqu'à ce que le volet se rapproche de la fovéa [...] Il est alors interrompu et initié à nouveau sur un nouveau site à distance du centre de la fovéa [...] Le pelage est poursuivi en répétant l'opération à chaque fois que le volet se rapproche de la fovéa, de façon à peler la MLI sur l'ensemble de la surface maculaire en épargnant le centre de la fovéa [...] Les reliquats de MLI sont disséqués puis coupés à l'aide du vitréotome [...]

CONT

The internal limiting membrane (ILM) is the most central layer of the retina. The ILM helps the retina stay rigid, so removing it (peeling) can make the retina flexible and easier to work with during surgery.

CONT

There are an increasing number of conditions in which manipulation of the vitreoretinal interface, and in particular peeling of the internal limiting membrane (ILM) from the retina, may be desirable. Idiopathic macular hole surgery has attracted the most attention. ... ILM peeling has also been undertaken in the surgical treatment of traumatic macular holes, macular holes causing extensive retinal detachment, retinal detachment with proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR), epiretinal membranes (ERMs), diabetic cystoid macular edema, and pseudophakic cystoid macular edema.

CONT

Le pelage de la membrane limitante interne (MLI) a été décrit pour la première fois pour le traitement des trous maculaires (TM) [...] en 1997. Depuis, il s'est largement démocratisé en chirurgie vitréo-rétinienne et dans celle des membranes épirétiniennes (MER). Dans la chirurgie des TM, le pelage de la MLO augmente le taux de fermeture et diminue le risque de réouvertures postopératoires tardives [...]

CONT

Internal limiting membrane (ILM) abrasion is an alternative surgical technique for successful full-thickness macular hole (MH) repair. ... Abrasion of the ILM with a diamond-dusted membrane scraper at the time of vitrectomy achieves high rates of MH closure. This technique avoids complete removal of the retinal ILM basement membrane and subjacent tissues and appears to provide MH closure rates similar to those of traditional ILM peeling.
