Fluorouracil for the Treatment of Massive Periretinal Proliferation

TL;DR: Intravitreal and subconjunctival injections of fluorouracil were well tolerated and may prove to be of significant value in the treatment of human disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

5-fluorouracil: new applications in complicated retinal detachment for an established antimetabolite.

TL;DR: In combination with standard vitrectomy techniques, post-operative fluid gas exchange, and photocoagulation, periocular and subconjunctival 5-fluorouracil appears to improve the prognosis for longterm retinal reattachment following the development of proliferative vitreoretinopathy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Late complications after glaucoma filtering surgery with adjunctive 5-fluorouracil.

TL;DR: Adjunctive fluorouracil after filtering surgery may entail various, mainly bleb-related, late side effects and complications, as well as early complications in both groups.
Journal ArticleDOI

Experimental intraocular proliferation and neovascularization.

TL;DR: Heterologous cells produced no clinical or histologic evidence of rejection when compared with autologous Cells in the same animal and had the following advantages: (1) elimination of several biopsies and extended cell culture time; (2) a ready source of cryopreserved cells is available; (3) multiple injections of many animals can be performed within a short time.
