ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To evaluate the factors associated with the recurrence of epiretinal membrane (ERM) after surgery for ERMMETHODS:
We reviewed patients' medical records who received vitrectomy for ERM. The preoperative findings, best postoperative and final visual acuity, and intraoperative findings of eyes with recurred ERM were compared with those of eyes without recurrence after removal of ERM.RESULTS:
Recurrence of ERM was high in eyes with ERM associated with chronic uveitis, compared with the eyes with idiopathic ERM (p=0.030, Cox regression analysis). Neither the type of membrane nor incomplete membrane removal during pars plana vitrectomy was correlated with the recurrence of ERM.CONCLUSIONS:
Considering the recurrence of ERM after surgical removal being high in eyes with chronic uveitis, close follow up is recommended in these patients.
