Material and methods. The study included 16 patients (31 eyes). Types and terms of treatment. Stage I in the treatment of ROP, laser coagulation of the avascular areas of the retina was performed in three patients with aggressive posterior ROP (4 eyes, 12.9%). In all patients, the progression of the disease was noted. Intravitreal injection of ranibizumab was performed in the period from 8 to 16 weeks (10.5±2.0 weeks), PCV from 32.3 to 39.6 weeks (37.0±1.8 weeks). Result. After laser treatment and IVI of ranibizumab, 11 patients (31 eyes, 81.6%) showed regression of the disease. In 5 patients (6 eyes, 19.4%) - progression. If the ROP progressed, a 25G or 27G lenssparing vitrectomy was performed. Complete regression of ROP was achieved in one patient (1 eye, 16.7%). Partial regression was observed in two patients (2 eyes, 33.3%). In two patients (3 eyes, 50%), the disease progressed to stage 5 with the development of total retinal detachment. Conclusion. As a result of the complex treatment of severe forms of the active stage of retinopathy of prematurity in the regional children's ophthalmological center MKMC "Bonum" in Yekaterinburg, the following data were obtained: complete regression with retinal adhesion is observed in 12 patients (26 eyes, 83.4%), of which in one patient (1 eye, 3.2%) regression was achieved after vitrectomy. Partial regression with the formation of a peripheral retinal detachment after vitrectomy was achieved in two patients (two eyes - 6.5%). Progression of retinopathy of prematurity to stage V with the development of total retinal detachment in two patients (3 eyes, 9.6%). Complex treatment of severe stages of active ROP using laser treatment, IVI and vitrectomy allows to preserve vision in 90.4% of patients. Key words: retinopathy of prematurity; intravitreal injection; laser coagulation of the retina; vitrectomy.
