摘要：
Purpose: To report a case of retinal pigment epithelial tear after intravitreal injection of ranibizumab (Lucentis (R)) for retinal angiomatous proliferation (RAP). Methods: Interventional case report. Results: An 81-year-old woman was treated with intravitreal ranibizumab for stage-II RAP with retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) detachment. Ten days after this antiangiogenic therapy a RPE tear was detected, though no change in visual acuity occurred. Conclusion: RPE tear may be a complication of intravitreal anti-VEGF therapy with ranibizumab. The presence of a vascularized RPE detachment increases the risk and must be considered when using these new intravitreal injections.
