The authors relate a predominantly hemorrhagic choroidal neovascular lesion from neovascular. Age-related macular degeneration patient case treated with intravitreal ranibizumab therapy. Monthly ranibizumab (six intravitreal injections) displayed a promising response but this limited report is insufficient to guarantee the indication for all predominantly hemorrhagic choroidal neovascular lesion from neovascular age-related macular degeneration. Further studies will be necessary for complete validation of our results for all predominantly hemorrhagic choroidal neovascular lesions from CNV due to AMD.

The purpose of this study was to describe a prospective case series of 5 eyes treated with intravitreal ranibizumab injection for neovascular glaucoma (NVG). Five patients with clinically uncontrolled NVG secondary to proliferative diabetic retinopathy (4 patients) and central retinal vein occlusion (1 patient), non-responsive to maximal tolerable medication and panretinal photocoagulation, received intravitreal ranibizumab injection (0.5 mg). Patients were seen at 1st, 3rd and 7th day after the ranibizumab injection and when it was necessary. Success was defined as […]

PURPOSE: To report the response of choroidal neovascularization (CNV) to intravitreal ranibizumab treatment in the setting of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) with extensive pre-existing geographic atrophy (GA) and a revision paper. METHODS: This is a revision paper and a retrospective case series of 10 eyes in nine consecutive patients from a photographic database. The patients were actively treated with ranibizumab for neovascular AMD with extensive pre-existing GA. Patients were included if they had GA at or adjacent to the foveal […]
