Uniform Suspension of the Clustered Triamcinolone Acetonide Particle

Figure 1

Occurrence of nonuniform clustered MaQ particles when using the routine suspension method. MaQ was suspended using the routine protocol recommended by the manufacturer. The case is epiretinal membrane. During surgery, clustered MaQ spread nonuniformly in the vitreous (a). Under microscope, nonuniform clustered particles are seen (b, arrow). Note only small numbers of single particles are seen (arrowheads). TA mass disturbs visibility during retina surface managements (c). Clustered MaQ disturbed membrane peeling. Bar: 50 μm.
