Abstract
We retrospectively examined the efficacy of a single juxtascleral anecortave acetate depot injection for the treatment of fibrotic choroidal neovascular lesions with presence of residual peripheral activity in age related macular degeneration in 20 consecutive patients who rejected intravitreal treatment. As a second line-therapy of classic and occult fibrotic lesions with active peripheral zones, anecortave seems to be a vision conserving therapeutic option.
