Outcomes of treatment of pediatric choroidal neovascularization with intravitreal antiangiogenic agents: the results of the KKESH International Collaborative Retina Study Group.

Purpose: To evaluate safety and clinical results of intravitreal antiangiogenic agents for choroidal neovascularization in pediatric patients. Methods: Retrospective, multicenter, interventional case series. A total of 45 eyes of 39 pediatric patients with choroidal neovascularization of various etiologies were treated with intravitreal injection of antiangiogenic agents (1.25 mg per 0.05 mL of bevacizumab or 0.5 mg per 0.05 mL of ranibizumab). Results: There were 24 girls and 15 boys with group median age of 13 years (range, 3–17 years). Mean follow-up period was 12.8 months (range, 3–60 months). Median visual acuity in terms of logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution at presentation …
