Abstract
BACKGROUNDS: diabetic macular edema is the more frequent cause of low grade vision in persons presenting with diabetic retinopathy. In diabetic patients with severe or diffuse diabetic macular edema, the laser-photocoagulation had not the desired effects. AIMS: to review the present state of intravitreous route of Triamcinolone use acetate by in patients presenting this entity. DEVELOPMENT: Triamcinolone acetate is a corticoid agent with a potent anti-inflammatory and antiangiogenic action stabilizing the hematoretinal barrier and to inhibit the angiogenesis, thus, its use in diabetic macular edema treatment where the damage to above mentioned barrier and the release of angiogenic factors in response to hypoxia are closely involved in pathogenesis of this type of edema. Intravitreous administration in many dosages and not in few occasions in a repetitive way, has showed some controversial results in comparing the beneficial effect achieved by Triamcinolone acetate, with a short term effect and the concerns related to complications (ocular hypertension, endophthalmitis, vitreous hemorrhage, etc) related to reinjections. Nowadays new devices are assayed releasing the Triamcinolone acetate in a slow way and lengthening its effect to find a more reasonable treatment strategy and with higher therapeutical effects than non-desirable ones. CONCLUSIONS: Triamcinolone acetate treatment is a alternative to improve the diabetic macular edema, although prospective studies and with a long-term follow-up period are needed to arrive to more consistent results.
