PURPOSE: To evaluate the effects of posterior subtenon injection of triamcinolone acetonide in patients with intraocular inflammation. METHODS: Case series enrolling 24 patients (26 eyes) submitted to posterior subtenon injection of triamcinolone acetonide for intraocular inflammation treatment. Maleate timolol at 0.5% was prescribed for all patients for 30 days. RESULTS: Improvement of visual acuity was observed in 81% of the patients after a single injection of triamcinolone acetonide. Increase in the intraocular pression was not observed in the treated eyes. CONCLUSION: Posterior subtenon injection of triamcinolone acetonide proved to be a safe and effective way of treating intraocular inflammations.
