HUMAN AMNIOTIC MEMBRANE TO TREAT MACULAR HOLES THAT FAILED TO CLOSE, SULFUR HEXAFLUORIDE ENDOTAMPONADE VERSUS AIR ENDOTAMPONADE

Abstract

The human amniotic membrane combined with air endotamponade demonstrated its effectiveness to seal macular holes that failed to close after vitrectomy plus internal limiting membrane peeling. Advanced multimodal diagnostic imaging helped us to better understand the modifications associated with the use of the amniotic membrane in these cases.
