METHOD FOR INTRAOPERATIONALLY STOPPING EPIRETINAL HEMORRHAGES AND REMOVING EPIRETINAL BLOOD

摘要

FIELD: medicine. ^ SUBSTANCE: method involves introducing hemostatic sponge via sclerostoma into vitreous cavity filled with polyorganophosphoroous compound. Sponge is 1.5 x 2 mm large. The sponge is pressed to epiretinal hemorrhage place on the retina for a time needed to achieve complete hemostasis. Then, epiretinal hemorrhage places are dried above the retina. ^ EFFECT: enhanced effectiveness in removing blood without polyorganophosphoroous compound loss taking place; accelerated operation; reduced risk of secondary hemorrhages and neovascular proliferative membrane recurrence.
