Mashup Score: 8Macular Telangiectasia Type 2 versus Tamoxifen Retinopathy: How to Hit a Diagnostic Bullseye - 1 year(s) ago
Multiple retinal diseases can manifest with similar phenotypical findings. The so-called “bullseye maculopathy” is a classic finding for conditions that affect the central macula. The dark center of the fovea is surrounded by a lighter ring, indicating disease-related changes. The differential diagnosis includes a variety of inherited and acquired conditions, such as cone-rod dystrophies,…

Mashup Score: 6
A broad spectrum of autosomal dominant inherited retinal diseases (IRDs), including both mild macular pattern dystrophies and severe cone-rod degenerations, is associated with PRPH2 variants (“peripherinopathies”). We present a detailed clinical and molecular characterization of patients affected by peripherinopathies, aiming to expand the mutational spectrum and propose novel genotype-phenotype…

Mashup Score: 4
A 45-year-old man presented with decreased vision in the right eye. Relevant medical history included familial hypertriglyceridemia, kidney transplantation, sensorineural hearing loss, and diabetes. Fundoscopy revealed yellowish petaloid-shaped intraretinal deposits, along with vessel attenuation and bone spicule hyperpigmentation in the midperiphery (Fig A). On spectral-domain–OCT, cystoid…

Mashup Score: 0Retinal Morphological Features in Patients with Large Macular Holes Treated by Autologous Neurosensory Retinal Transplantation - 1 year(s) ago
To investigate the time-courses of morphological changes in the transplanted grafts including the retinal layer, the ellipsoid zone (EZ) and the visual acuity (VA) after autologous retinal transplantation (ART) in patients with primary large macular holes (MH).

One year after autologous retinal transplantation, the outer retinal layer was preserved and visual acuity improved; the group with the ellipsoid zone restoration had a lower incidence of macular edema and better visual acuity improvement. https://t.co/rTwIS1HiN8 https://t.co/W15sMVTbQq

Mashup Score: 3Incidence and risk factors of visual impairment in patients with angioid streaks and macular neovascularization - 1 year(s) ago
To estimate the incidence and risk factors of visual impairment and complications in eyes with macular neovascularization (MNV) due to angioid streaks (AS).
Source: Ophthalmology RetinaCategories: Latest Headlines, OphthalmologyTweet-
Angioid streak-related macular neovascularization is burdened by a high rate of visual impairment and a high propensity to fibrosis macular and atrophy. Authors' findings urge a shift from reactive to proactive treatment approaches. https://t.co/pa1KANDBdv https://t.co/okOB3Hx0Kv

Geographic atrophy (GA), the advanced form of nonexudative age-related macular degeneration (atrophic AMD, aAMD), is a major cause of central visual loss in people aged > 60 years. Geographic atrophy currently has no treatment; however, there are > 10 clinical trials (clinicaltrials.gov, October 6, 2022), 2 with promising results in Phase III.
