Abstract
Purpose. To study approaches to the treatment of submacular hemorrhage in age-related macular degeneration based on the literature data. Material and methods. The search for publications on the treatment of submacular hemorrhage (SMH) was carried out in the PubMed, SCOPUS, Umedp databases, as well as manually in journals and publications of conference materials until January 2021. Results and discussion. SMH treatment is represented by a variety of methods, from minimally invasive methods, such as intravitreal injection of drugs, gas tamponade and their combinations, to complex surgical approaches with pigment epithelium transplantation. Conclusions. The successful treatment of massive SMH is possible with minimally invasive methods. However, with significant prominating SMH, vitreoretinal surgical interventions are more appropriate. It is advisable to treat SMH as soon as possible from the moment of hemorrhage. Key words: submacular hemorrhage, age-related macular degeneration, pneumodislocation, vitrectomy, anti-VEGF inhibitors, tissue plasminogen activator.
