ObjectiveTo investigate the therapeutic method and effect of thrombolysis via superselective ophthalmic artery catheterization treating central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO).Methods9 patients with CRAO were treated by urokinase infusion via superselective ophthalmic artery catheterization with Seldinger technique.ResultsIn the 9 patients, the visual acuity was improved to different extent in 8, and remained unchanged in 1. No complications was found during the treatment in any patients.ConclusionsThrombolysis via super-selective ophthalmic artery catheterization for CRAO can improve the visual acuity of most of the patients in different degrees. No positive relation exists in clinical therapeutic effect, time of onset, quantity of urokinase and the visual acuity before the treatment. The method of thrombolysis via super-selective ophthalmic artery catheterization for CRVO is safe and reliable.(Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis, 2005,21:22-24)
