Intravitreal Staining of the Internal Limiting Membrane Using Indocyanine Green in the Treatment of Macular Holes

Abstract: Surgical management of macular holes consists of pars plana vitrectomy, removal of the posterior hyaloid facia, and peeling of the epiretinal membranes (ERM). Additionally, removal of the internal limiting membrane (ILM) may enable an increase in the anatomic and functional success rates. However, recognition of fine ILM is difficult thus increasing the time that the macula is exposed to intraoperative light. Staining the ILM with indocyanine green (ICG) dye during vitrectomy facilitates recognition of the ILM… Show more

“…In addition, ICG could also migrate to subretinal space through the MH, causing retinal damage (12)(13)(14) . Complications of ICG-assisted chromovitrectomy include RPE changes, visual field defects, and optic nerve atrophy (4,15) . Few controlled studies have been performed to compare ILM removal with and without ICG staining in MH surgery.…”

“…Recentemente publicações controversas apontaram possí-veis efeitos tóxicos causados pela ICG (6)(7)(8)(9)(10) . Clinicamente, as cirurgias que fizeram uso de ICG apresentaram atrofia óptica e de epitélio pigmentário da retina (EPR) bem como defeitos de campo visual (1) . Análises histopatológicas disponíveis na literatura de MLI retirada durante a cromovitrectomia com ICG mostrou resultados controversos de toxicidade nos tecidos subjacentes à membrana limitante interna removida (11) .…”

“…Uma segunda técnica proposta é a manutenção de solução salina balanceada na cavidade vítrea para a injeção do corante. Esta técnica permite que o corante seja "lavado" da cavidade vítrea imediatamente após sua injeção (1) . Investigações dos efeitos da ICG na retina de modelos de porco através da injeção da ICG intravítrea utilizando estes dois métodos evidenciou uma alta taxa de atrofia de EPR e degeneração de segmento externo da retina no grupo que fez a técnica de troca fluido-gasosa antes da injeção de corante quando comparada com a técnica de preenchimento com solução salina balanceada (6) .…”
