[Prevention of retinal detachment in massive endovitreous hamorrhage. 2a].

We have made a prophylaxis of retinal detachment resulting from massive endovitreous hemorrhage by performing a pars plana vitrectomy in rabbit eyeballs, in which we had previously injected autologous blood. Because of the opacity of the means the echografic examination has shown us the moment of intervening. The detachment of retina has taken place in the 46,15% of case, wherease in some of our previous experiences it has happened in the 91,3% without the prophylactic intervention and in the 64,28% after application of encirclement.

[Prevention of retinal detachment in massive endovitreous hemorrhage. 3a].

We have made a prophylaxis of retinal detachment resulting from massive endovitreous hemorrhage by associating a pars plan vitrectomy and an application of encirclement in rabbit eyeballs, in which we had previously injected autologous blood. Because of the opacity of the means, echography has shown us the moment of internention. The retinal detachment has taken place in yhe 20,83% of cases whereas in our previous experience it had happened in the 91,3% without prophylactic intervention, in the 64.28% after application of encirclement and in the 46.15% after vitrectomy.

[Central serous retinopathy. Etiopathogenetic and clinical considerations (author's transl)].

Etiopathogenetic, clinical and therapeutic study of 24 patients affected with central serous retinopathy, hospitalized in the Ophthalmological Clinic of the University of Bari during the period 1977-1978. After reviewing the main pathogenetic theories on the disease and taking into consideration their own findings, which are also based on specific psychiatric tests, the authors conclude that central serous retinopathy probably has a psychoangiospastic etiopathogenesis.

[Epidemiological,and physiopathological findings in retinopathy of prematurity: the authors' personal cases].

The authors present a retrospective epidemiological study on retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), performed on 738 newborns with a gestational age of 34 +/- 2.41 weeks and birth weight of 1971 +/- 351 g. They excluded all cases with severe respiratory distress and other pathological conditions. First stage of ROP shows no correlation with gestational age and birth weight, whereas second and third stages of ROP show an inverse correlation with the above mentioned factors, particularly birth weight. Among neonates with the same gestational age, the incidence of ROP is higher in those "small for date". Regarding the pathogenesis of ROP, the authors outline the importance of perinatal hypoxia.

[Incidence of ROP (Retinopathy of Prematurity) in hypoxemic neonates: case contribution].

In this retrospective study the Authors correlated the hypoxia with the severity of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) in a population of 683 outborn preterm infants (bw < 2500 g and gestational age < 38 weeks). They excluded all cases with specific pathological conditions. Among neonates with the same gestational age the incidence of ROP was higher (p < .05) in those with hypoxia (pH < 7.25, tcPO2 < 50 mmHg). These data suggest that hypoxia plays a role in the pathogenesis of ROP.
