The use of recombinant tissue plasminogen activator for intracameral fibrinolysis following cataract surgery1994 •
In a prospective study performed between June 1992 and March 1994 19 eyes of 19 patients with dense fibrinous pupillary membranes following cataract surgery were treated with intracameral injections of 25μg recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (r-tPA). Injections were performed between the second and twenty-third postoperative day (mean 5.6±6.9 days). Complete fibrinolysis within one to 4 hours (mean: 3.3±0.89 hours) was observed in 18 (94.7%) eyes. In one (5.3%) eye fibrinolysis was incomplete despite a second injection. In 2 (10.5%) eyes recurrence of a distinct fibrinous membrane was noted which then cleared spontaneously with topical treatment. A small hyphema developed in 2 (10.5%) eyes and intraocular pressure exceeded 25 mm Hg in 2 (10.5%) eyes. No increase of keratopathy nor any toxic intraocular side effect of 25μg intracameral r-tPA was observed throughout the study. The intracameral injection of r-tPA clinically proved to safely accelerate the resorption of dense fibrinous membranes following cataract surgery and thus enhance visual recovery minimizing subsequent complications and systemic or subconjunctival anti-inflammatory treatment.

Intraocular Lens Opacification following Intracameral Injection of Recombinant Tissue Plasminogen Activator to Treat Inflammatory Membranes after Cataract Surgery2015 •
Purpose. To report 7 cases of intraocular lens (IOL) opacification following treatment of postoperative anterior chamber fibrin with recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rtPA) after cataract surgery. Methods. Retrospective case series of 7 eyes in 7 patients who developed IOL opacification after receiving rtPA for anterior chamber inflammatory membrane formation resulting from phacoemulsification cataract surgery. Three explanted IOLs were investigated with light microscopy, histochemical analysis, scanning electron microscopy, and X-ray spectrometry. Results. All patients underwent uncomplicated cataract surgery and posterior chamber hydrophilic IOL implantation. Anterior chamber inflammatory membranes developed between 1 and 4 weeks of surgery and were treated with intracameral rtPA. IOL opacification was noted between 4 weeks and 6 years after rtPA treatment with reduced visual acuity, and IOL exchange was carried out in 3 patients. Light microscopy evaluation revealed diffu...
