194. Papillary Fibrovascular Membrane Dissection

In this episode, we focus on how to safely address fibrovascular membranes over the optic nerve during diabetic vitrectomy.  We walk through the pros and cons of segmentation versus delamination at the nerve head, and highlight strategies to anticipate and control bleeding during these maneuvers. This excellent surgical video is submitted by guest surgeon, Dr. Julian Villareal from the Instituto Mexicano de Oftalmología IAP.  Thank you Dr. Villareal for sharing this instructive case!
