Recurrent uveitic macular edema managed with intravitreal faricimab injection. (PubMed, J Ophthalmic Inflamm Infect) - "The findings of this case hint towards the potential simultaneous effect of angiopoietin-2 blockade along with vascular endothelia growth factor A inhibition by faricimab in managing treatment-resistant UME. Nonetheless, more studies focusing on the role of intravitreal faricimab in UME are required."

Case report: Two cases of multiple evanescent white dot syndrome with transient night blindness. (PubMed, Front Ophthalmol (Lausanne)) - "SubTenon's triamcinolone acetonide injection was administered, and 3 months after the injection, the night blindness, ffERG abnormalities, and EZ loss had resolved, but the enlarged blind spot remained. MEWDS rarely causes transient night blindness due to extensive rod dysfunction. However, outer retinal layer damage is reversible, with night blindness typically resolving within a few months."

An evaluation of surgical excision versus steroid injection for the management of ganglion cysts. (PubMed, Sci Rep) - "Patients were divided into two groups: Group A underwent surgical excision and Group B received aspiration followed by 40 mg of intralesional triamcinolone acetonide injection...Surgical excision demonstrated significantly better outcomes, with higher success and lower recurrence rates than aspiration and steroid injection for the management of ganglion cysts. Therefore, this should be considered the preferred treatment option."

Transient anterior chamber intraocular lens opacification by triamcinolone acetonide following intravitreal injection. (PubMed, GMS Ophthalmol Cases) - "Conservative management led to spontaneous clearing of intraocular lens (IOL) and resolution of CME in 4 weeks.

Intravitreal steroid-associated central serous chorioretinopathy. (PubMed, BMJ Case Rep) - "Both cases showed complete resolution of cystoid oedema after intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide injection, but there was a progressive increase in neurosensory detachment (NSD), leading to a suspicion of CSC...The first case was treated with focal laser, and the second one was treated with oral eplerenone...This report adds to the evidence that intravitreal steroids can indeed cause acute CSC. A high index of suspicion for CSC should be maintained in cases where NSD increases following intravitreal steroid administration."

Sonographically-navigated frozen shoulder release (S-FSR): A modified technique for sonographically-navigated, in-office hydrodilatation of adhesive capsulitis.

During the procedure, we inject a solution of 10 mL lidocaine mixed with 2 mL of 40 mg/mL triamcinolone acetonide injection (80 mg total) through an anterior approach at the level of the rotator interval for pain control...We conclude the procedure with hydrodilatation of the GH joint (GHJ) through the posterior approach with approximately 50 mL of 0.9% normal saline, or until an expansion and release of the GH joint is visualized under ultrasound visualization.

Morphological and Histological Changes Following Triamcinolone Injection Alone or Mixed Injection of Triamcinolone and Botulinum Toxin in Upper Eyelid. (PubMed, J Craniofac Surg) - "Triamcinolone acetonide combined with BTXA showed better results in decreasing upper eyelid height than TA alone in normal monkey eyelids due to its predictable effect. In addition, there were no differences between the side effects and the histology results between the 4 groups. Therefore, TA combined with BTXA may become a promising treatment for selective thyroid eyelid retraction and could offer an alternative to surgery and its complications."

Long-term outcomes of intravenous corticosteroid pulse therapy for rapidly progressive alopecia areata: A single-center retrospective analysis of 106 cases and usefulness evaluation of a scoring system originally designed for half-year efficacy prediction for extended periods. (PubMed, J Dermatol) - "With additional interventions represented by intralesional triamcinolone acetonide injection with or without topical potent corticosteroid for those who insufficiently responded at 6 months after IVPT, 64.2%, 14.2%, and 21.7% of the patients respectively achieved good response (GR; SALT score ≤25), moderate response (MR; 25 < SALT score <75), and poor response (PR; 75 ≤ SALT score) 1 year after IVPT...The revised scoring system adding the absence of preceding infectious diseases as one factor successfully predicted the occurrence of the relapse in our cohort (P = 0.002). Taken together, previously unreported real-world efficacy of IVPT to RP-AA was elucidated with the invention of a tool putatively enabling optimal long-term management."

Ultrasound-guided intralesional steroid injection in idiopathic granulomatous mastitis as a newer first-line treatment option with promising therapeutic efficacy (EUSOBI 2024) - "The LSI protocol involved an intralesional triamcinolone acetonide injection into the ultrasound-detected loculated collections, mastitis, fistulous tracts, and sinuses every 4-6 weeks till their optimal response. Patients receiving combined LSI and OST were administered low-dose oral methylprednisolone (<15mg) along with intralesional steroid injections...It can be used either as a sole treatment option or in combination with oral steroids. Compared with systemic oral steroid therapy, intralesional steroid injections could be considered a new treatment modality with fewer side effects."

Pulsed thulium laser combined with pulsed thulium laser injection for the treatment of failed urethral anastomosis (PubMed, Zhonghua Nan Ke Xue) - "The median follow-up time for the thulium laser group and plasma group was 21.0 months (IQR 16.0－24.0) and 21.0 months (IQR 17.0－25.0), respectively, with a statistically significant difference observed in the maximum urine flow rate before and after surgery at the 12-month mark (P < 0.01). No significant disparity was found in terms of relapse-free survival between the two groups (P = 0.398) Pulsed thulium laser combined with triamcinolone acetonide injection can effectively maintain a short-term cicatricial stability of the urethral stricture and satisfactory urethral patency, obviously superior to plasmotomy as a remedial treatment of urethral stricture after failed posterior urethral anastomosis."
