Subretinal hemorrhage removal.
Subretinal hemorrhages can be caused by different pathologies. In our opinion the subretinal neovascularizations associated with age related macular degeneration are the most frequent cause of these subretinal hemorrhages. The surgical indications of this pathology are presented and illustrated by 10 cases we operated on over the last two years. The surgical technique and the prognosis of the treatment are discussed.
