NEW YORK — Vitrectomy using balanced saline solution without tissue plasminogen activator is effective for displacement of thick submacular hemorrhage, according to a speaker here.
“As you all know, displacing a large submacular hemorrhage has a lot of different treatment options. Most of them utilize tissue plasminogen activators (tPA) to displace and analyze the clot,” Marwan Abdulaal, MD, said at the American Society of Retina Specialists annual meeting. “However, sometimes tPA can have limited availability, especially in a private practice setup.”
