Table 3.
Incidence of melphalan toxicity and globe salvage with IVM treatment in 34 eyes of 26 patients with B-scan ultrasonography
| Anterior segment toxicity | Grade 1–3 toxicity | Grade 4–5 toxicity | Globe salvage | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| With PVD prior to IVM, of 10 | 0 (0) | 6 (60) | 1 (10) | 8 (80) |
| Without PVD prior to IVM, of 15 | 0 (0) | 5 (33) | 1 (7) | 11 (73) |
| Indeterminant PVD prior to IVM, of 9 | 4 (44) | 3 (33) | 2 (23) | 8 (89) |
