[Association of capsular pseudoexfoliation in patients with epiretinal membrane].
The epiretinal membrane and pseudoexfoliation syndrome represent two different anatomo-clinical items whose etiopathogenesis is incompletely solved. We have noticed the capsular pseudoexfoliation at a significant percentage of patients that have been diagnosed with epiretinal membrane; further studies may demonstrate if this is a random coincidence or their emergence is caused by a common pathogenic step.
