Title: Retinal vascular diseases: a
critical appraisal
Abstract
Purpose: to stimulate a critical debate about new
diagnostic modalities and current paradigms of treatment for selected retinal vascular
disorders.
Background: multimodal retinal imaging and new advancements in
vitreoretinal surgery have shed new light in the management of retinal vascular
diseases
Methods: we have structured the course in two sections: the first part
includes brief communications focused to diabetic choroidopathy, diabetic
retinopahty and age-related macular degeneration, Coats disease, IRVAN disease and
peripheral exudative hemorrhagic chiorioretinopathy.
The second part of the course
is mainly centered to the controversies in the parasurgical and surgical management
of selected retinal vascular diseases: diabetic macular edema and cataract surgery,
proliferative diabetic retinopathy in the era of 27-gauge vitrectomy, role of the laser
in the prevention and treatment of macular edema and neovascularisation following
diabetic retinopathy and retinal vein occlusions.
Course objectives: we hope to
cover some tricky clinical scenarios in our daily practice rather than provide
colleagues with a cooking book of recommendantions or guidelines. The
presentations will start from clinical cases and we encourage an interactive
participation. At the conclusion of this course the attendee will be able to have a
practical guidelines to manage retinal exudative retinopathies and to better translate
the significance of multimodal imaging to the daily practice.
