Posterior capsule rupture (PCR) remains one of the most common complications of cataract surgery and a major risk factor for poor visual outcomes. Cataract surgeries complicated by PCR and vitreous loss are managed with anterior vitrectomy at the time of surgery. However, the situation can be further complicated by dropping lens particles into the vitreous cavity necessitating a secondary pars plana vitrectomy (PPV). Purpose: To compare the visual outcomes and risk of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) between eyes that required anterior vitrectomy (AV) alone for the management of vitreous loss and eyes that required AV and subsequent PPV for the management of dropped nuclear lens fragments (DNLF) following cataract surgery complicated by PCR in a tertiary care teaching hospital in Saudi Arabia. Methods: Medical records of patients in whom PCR occurred during phacoemulsification cataract surgery requiring AV or subsequent PPV for DNLF were retrospectively reviewed over a 6-year period from January 2016 to December 2021. Results: PCR occurred in 183 (2.3%) of 7757 consecutive eyes that underwent phacoemulsification cataract surgery during the study period. Seven eyes were excluded from analysis for missing data or short follow-up. Of the 176 eyes, 147 eyes (83.5%) were managed with AV alone, and the remaining 29 eyes (16.5%) underwent a secondary PPV for DNLF. After excluding eyes with pre-existing ocular pathology, final best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was similar in both groups with a mean of 0.32 logMAR (P = 0.99). Two of 147 eyes (1.4%) in the AV group developed RRD with poor final BCVA whereas none of the eyes in DNLF group developed RRD. Conclusion: The risk of RRD is lower in eyes that required PPV for DNLF than in eyes that were managed with AV alone following PCR during cataract surgery. The poor visual outcomes in eyes that suffered RRD underscore the importance of postoperative retinal examination and early detection of retinal breaks.展开更多

The rhegmatogenous form is the most common and its management is exclusively surgical as soon as possible. This urgency becomes major and absolute when it occurs in a particular monocular vision. Purpose: To analyze the clinical forms of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD), the results and the complications of their management in monophthalmic patients. Methodology: This was a retrospective and analytical study from June 2007 to December 2019. We included all patients who received a consultation for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment. All patients were seen by at least two posterior segment specialists and all were operated on by the same surgeon. Results: 57 files (57 eyes) were collected with an average age of 44.71 years and a sex ratio of 7.14. The average consultation time is 40.80 days. Patients complained of decreased visual acuity in 96.49% of cases. We had myopia in 49.12% of cases and 91.23% of patients were phakic. Retinal holes were found in 31.58% of our patients and giant tears in 17.54%. The mean retinal detachment extension was 2.52 quadrants and the macula was raised in 32 cases. The average time taken to take charge was 10 days. Detachment surgery was performed in 42 patients with 100% anatomical recovery. Conclusion: Retinal detachment in one-eyed patient is a major ophthalmic emergency. Its management must not suffer from any delay. Post-operative outcomes are relatively similar between the internal and external pathways. In one-eyed patient, silicone can be left alone in the absence of complications.展开更多

Methods: A comprehensive literature search was performed using the Web of Science, MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases to retrieve comparative studies. The main objective was to assess the BCVA, while reattachment rates and ocular adverse events were considered secondary measures. Rev Manager software was used for statistical analysis. Results: The literature search identified 10 articles comprising 1518 eyes, with 682 eyes in the PPV group, 193 eyes in the lens-sparing versus phaco-procedure group, and 643 eyes in the combined PPV and SB surgery group. Quality assessment revealed a low risk of bias in most domains. The meta-analysis results revealed a significant difference in postoperative BCVA between the PPV and PPV combined with SB groups (WMD = −0.17, 95% CI [0.27, 0.07], p = 0.001). The primary reattachment rates were 82.80% for PPV alone and 87.52% for PPV combined with SB (p = 0.34). The final reattachment rates did not differ significantly between PPV and PPV combined with SB (99% vs. 99.8%;RR = 1.00, 95% CI [1.01, 0.99], p = 0.96). PPV alone demonstrated a significantly reduced risk of macular edema compared to PPV combined with scleral buckling (9.9% vs. 23%;p = 0.006). The incidences of macular hole development (p = 0.46), recurrent retinal detachment (p = 0.27), proliferative vitreoretinopathy development (p = 0.48), epiretinal membrane proliferation (p = 0.77), and limited choroidal hemorrhage (p = 0.69) were not significantly different between the two groups. Conclusions: These findings suggest that PPV alone may be a more effective treatment option in terms of visual acuity (VA) improvement, lower risk of macular edema and cataract development. However, there was no significant difference in VA improvement or complication rates between the lens-sparing and phaco-procedure groups. .展开更多

Purpose: To describe the clinical and therapeutic characteristics of pediatric rhegmatogenous retinal detachment. Method: We retrospectively included files of pediatric patients (aged 0 to 15 years), clinically diagnosed with rhematogenous retinal detachment (RRD) between January 2015 and June 2019. The ophthalmological examination was as complete as the age of the patients allowed and a pediatric examination was systematically performed in all children. The data has been processed with Excel 2016 software. Results: 16 eyes of 11 patients were included. The hospital frequency of RRD was 3.37%, with a sex ratio of 1.75 and a mean age of 11.9 years. The average consultation time was 2 months. Contusive eye trauma was reported in 31.25% and myopia in 18.75%. The visual acuity ranged from no light perception to 20/400. The RRD was total in 81.25% and retinal lesions were found in 43.75%, including 25% atrophic holes and tears with lattice degeneration, 12.5% temporal retinal dialysis and one giant tear. Stage B of Proliferative vitreoretinopathy was found in 18.75% and stage C in 56.25%. Scleral buckling was performed in 37.5% and 23G pars plana vitrectomy with silicone oil in 18.75%. The mean duration of follow-up was 24.6 months with anatomical success in 77.7% correlated with functional recovery in 55.5%. The RRD was persistent in one case and a recurrent RRD under silicone was observed in one eye. Two children underwent cataract surgery secondary to vitrectomy, and one case of ocular hypertonia under silicone was noted. Conclusion: Pediatric rhegmatogenous retinal detachment is a severe disease, with essentially traumatic etiology in older children. Delayed diagnosis is a factor in poor prognosis.展开更多

Aim: To describe the microstructural and functional results in three highly myopic eyes that underwent macular surgery for early-stage MTM. The last postoperative structural findings were correlated with the final vision and macular automated microperimetry evaluation. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed three highly myopic eyes that underwent successful fovea-saving internal limiting membrane (FS-ILM) macular surgery for chronic FRD at Oftalmologia Integral ABC, Mexico City, Mexico. We performed postoperative multimodal microstructural and functional evaluations, including SD-OCT, SS-OCT, and microperimetric macular examinations. Results: There was a substantial difference between best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) preoperatively and postoperatively in all three cases. Postoperative surgery was associated with significant improvement in visual acuity confirmed using a paired-sample permutation test. The mean presurgical BCVA value (LogMAR;mean ± SE) was ~0.83 ± 0.15, and the postsurgical value was ~0.43 ± 0.52 (P = 0.00065). The myopic foveoretinal detachment evaluation was ~7.3 ± 3.5 months, with a mean postoperative follow-up time of ~14 ± 4.08 months. Furthermore, postoperative multimodal imaging tests demonstrated an abnormal microstructural foveal SS-OCT pattern without evidence of macular hole (MH) development at the postoperative follow-up. Macular microperimetry confirmed a subclinical reduced macula threshold sensitivity with an anomalous retinal sensitivity analysis map and a stable central foveal fixation site.

OCT exams were taken preoperatively and 1 mo after surgery, until SMF disappeared. According to the preoperative macular status on OCT, patients were divided into two groups: macula-off RRD(Group A) and maculaon RRD(Group B). In Group A, there were two subgroups: macula partly detached(Group A1) and macula totally detached(Group A2). The main outcome measures were the presence of SMF on OCT 1 mo after surgery, and the preoperative and postoperative best corrected visual acuities(BCVA), among the different groups and depending on the presence or absence of persistent SMF.RESULTS: A total of 139 eyes of 139 patients were included in the study. Persistent SMF at 1 mo after surgery was 15.8%(22/139), all occurring in Group A(22/101); Group B had no SMF at 1 mo after surgery(0/38, P=0.002). The incidence of persistent SMF at 1 mo after surgery in Group A1 was 50%(14/28), and in Group A2 was 11.0%(8/73, P<0.001). Significant differences were shown between the presence and absence of persistent SMF on foveolaoff RRD, the preoperative BCVA, the 1 mo postoperative BCVA, and the degree of the BCVA improvement from 1 mo postoperatively to the final follow-up(P<0.05). However, there were no significant differences in the final BCVA(P>0.05).CONCLUSION: Persistent SMF after PPV for retinal detachment is associated with preoperative macular status. Macula-uninvolving RRD shows no persistent SMF after PPV. Macular partly detached RRD has a higher incidence of SMF than macula totally detached RRD after PPV. The persistence of SMF may be responsible for the delayed visual recovery, whereas there were no significant differences in the final visual acuity.展开更多

文摘AIM:To estimate and compare the incidence and characteristics of rhegmatogenous retinal detachments(RRDs)in the Wenzhou area in 2015 to 2019.METHODS:All newly developed RRD cases among residents of the Wenzhou area,from January 2015 to December 2019,were retrospectively retrieved from hospital records.Annual population data were extracted from the Wenzhou Statistical Yearbook.RESULTS:There were 3629 eligible cases.The average incidence of RRD was 7.79 cases per 100000 population(95%confidence interval,7.24-8.34),and the incidences were 7.99 and 7.56 for males and females,respectively.The annual incidence increased gradually from 7.26 cases per 100000 in 2015 to 10.00 cases per 100000 in 2019,with an overall increase of 37.74%.The highest rate of increase occurred in the age group from 60 to 69 years.Of 2750 eyes with axial length(AL)data,1675(60.91%)had an AL greater than 24 mm.CONCLUSION:A trend to increasing RRD incidence is observed in the Wenzhou area over the past 5-year period.
文摘AIM:To evaluate the diagnostic value of panoramic immersion B-scan ultrasonography(Pano-immersion B-scan,PIB)in complex retinal detachment(RD),persistent hyperplastic primary vitreous(PHPV)and intraocular tumors.METHODS:The clinical data of 44 patients collected from May 2012 to December 2019 in Chinese PLA General Hospital was retrospectively studied.All of these patients underwent PIB of the eye,because it was difficult to diagnose by routine ocular fundus examination,conventional ultrasound or/and ultrasonic biomicroscope(UBM)due to opacity of refractive media,pupillary occlusion,large involvement or special location of the lesion.The imaging features of difficult cases in PIB were analyzed.The diagnosis accuracy rating of PIB were evaluated and contrasted with conventional ultrasound or UBM by the standard of intraoperative diagnosis or/and pathological results.RESULTS:According to intraoperative diagnosis or pathological results as gold standard,among the 44 cases,there were 19 cases missed diagnosis,misdiagnosed or difficult-to-diagnose by conventional ultrasound or UBM,including 4 cases of long-standing RD difficult to diagnose,4 cases misdiagnosed,and 11 cases incompletely observed or miss diagnosed.The diagnostic accuracy rate of PIB and conventional ultrasound or UBM were 100%(44/44)and 56.82%(25/44),and the sensitivity of them were 100%and 56.82%.All the patients underwent PIB and were diagnosed as RD(15 cases),retinal and choroidal detachment(4 cases),subchoroidal hematocele(1 case),vitreous opacity and/or organic membrane formation(4 cases),PHPV(12 cases),iris and/or ciliary body tumors(3 cases),and choroidal tumors(6 cases).According to the intraoperative diagnosis or pathological results,the diagnostic coincidence rate of PIB was 100%,which was significantly higher than conventional ultrasound and UBM.CONCLUSION:PIB can help to accurately diagnose complex RD,PHPV,and intraocular masses with special location or/and excessive size.It has important diagnostic value for patients with equivocal findings at conventional ultrasound examination.
文摘AIM:To study and compare the predisposing factors and clinical features of pediatric,adult,and elderly rhegmatogenous retinal detachment(RRD).METHODS:This is an observational analytic crosssectional study in which patients with RRD admitted for surgery during 6mo period were divided into 3 age groups:pediatric(<18y),adult(18-60y),and elderly(>60y).Patients’demographic data,clinical features,RRD predisposing factors/features including myopia(axial length≥26.5 mm),aphakia/pseudophakia,blunt trauma,peripheral retinal degenerations,history of RRD in the fellow eye,and surgical interventions/findings were recorded and analyzed.RESULTS:Totally 142 patients(142 eyes)were studied:26(18.31%)pediatrics,86(60.56%)adults,and 30(21.13%)elderly.Elderly patients had a significantly higher intraocular pressures and cataracts compared to the other 2 groups(P=0.04).The RRD extent was larger in pediatric group(mostly 4 quadrants)compared to adults and elderly(mostly 2 quadrants),but it was not statistically insignificant(P=0.242).There were not statistically significantly differences in proliferative vitreoretinopathy(PVR)rate,posterior vitreous detachment(PVD)rate,number,site,shape,and size of breaks in three groups.All three groups had macular detachment in all eyes.Myopia and peripheral retinal degenerations were found to be more significant in adults(P=0.049,P=0.035,respectively),while blunt trauma was higher but insignificant in pediatric eyes(P=0.052).Pars plana vitrectomy(PPV)with silicone oil as a tamponade was the most used surgery in all groups.CONCLUSION:There are no significant difference in PVR rate in pediatric eyes but a significant higher rate of total RRD.Blunt trauma is more frequent in pediatrics eyes while myopia and/or peripheral retinal degenerations are more frequent in older ages.The rate of PPV as a choice for surgery is similar among all age groups.
文摘AIM:To identify the risk factors for postoperative proliferative vitreoretinopathy(PVR)in patients with primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment(RRD)and develop a nomogram for predicting postoperative PVR-free probability.METHODS:A total of 741 patients(741 eyes)diagnosed with primary RRD who underwent first surgery in the same hospital were retrospectively reviewed and randomly assigned with 521 to the training set and 220 to the validation set.Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed in the training cohort to determine risk factors to construct a nomogram for predicting the 3-,4-,5-,and 6-month postoperative PVR-free probabilities.Nomogram performance was estimated by the concordance index(C-index),calibration plot,and the area receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.RESULTS:A nomogram was constructed based on the preoperative PVR,silicone oil tamponade time(SOTT),photocoagulation energy(PE),retinal tear size(RTS),and hypertension.In the training set,the C-index of the nomogram was 0.896,0.936,0.961,and 0.972 at 3,4,5,and 6mo,respectively.The C-index values in the validation set were 0.860,0.936,0.951,and 0.965 at 3,4,5,and 6mo,respectively.Decision-curve analysis indicated that only the 4-,5-,and 6-month nomograms had significant net benefits over a large threshold probabilities interval.CONCLUSION:Preoperative PVR,SOTT,PE,RTS,and hypertension are significant risk factors for postoperative PVR formation in patients with primary RRD.The proposed nomogram can effectively predict the 4-,5-,and 6-month PVR-free probabilities after surgery and assist in making clinical decisions during follow-up.
文摘AIM:To identify metabolites,proteins,and related pathways involved in the etiology of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment(RRD)for use as biomarkers in diagnosing and treating RRD.METHODS:Vitreous specimens were collected and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry analysis was per formed using the four-dimensional label-free technique.Statistically significant differentially expressed proteins,gene ontology(GO)terms,Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)pathway representations,and protein interactions were analyzed.RESULTS:Nine specimens were subjected to proteomic analysis.In total,161 proteins were identified as differentially expressed proteins(DEPs),including 53 upregulated proteins and 108 downregulated proteins.GO functional analysis revealed that some DEPs were enriched in neuron-related terms and membrane protein terms.Moreover,KEGG analysis indicated that the cell adhesion molecule metabolic pathway was associated with the greatest number of DEPs.Finally,the evaluation of protein-protein interaction network revealed that DEPs were clustered in neuronal adhesion,apoptosis,inflammation and immune responses,correct protein folding,and glycolysis.CONCLUSION:Proteomic profiling is useful for the exploration of molecular mechanisms that underlie RRD.This study reveals increased expression levels of proteins related to heat shock protein content,glycolysis,and inflammatory responses in RRD.Knowledge regarding biomarkers of RRD pathogenesis may help to prevent the occurrence of RRD in the future.

文摘AIM:To determine the incidence and predictive factors for epiretinal membrane(ERM)formation in eyes with complicated primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment(RRD)tamponaded with silicone oil(SO).METHODS:This retrospective case-control study included 141 consecutive patients with(51 eyes)and without(90 eyes)ERM formation after primary pars plana vitrectomy(PPV)and SO tamponade for complicated RRD.The risk factors for ERM were assessed using logistic regression analysis.RESULTS:The prevalence of postoperative ERM was 36.2%(51/141).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the risk factors for ERM in SO-tamponaded eyes included preoperative proliferative vitreoretinopathy[PVR;odds ratio(OR),2.578;95%confidence interval(CI)1.580–4.205,P<0.001],preoperative choroidal detachment(OR,4.454;95%CI 1.369–14.498,P=0.013),and photocoagulation energy(OR,2.700;95%CI 1.047–6.962,P=0.040).The duration of the preoperative symptoms,intraocular SO tamponade time,giant retinal tear,preoperative vitreous hemorrhage,preoperative bestcorrected visual acuity,number of breaks,quadrants of RRD,axial length,and photocoagulation points were not predictive factors for ERM formation.CONCLUSION:Preoperative PVR,choroidal detachment,and photocoagulation energy are risk factors of ERM formation after complicated RRD repair.Better ophthalmic care as well as patient education are necessary for such patients with risk factors.
文摘Background: Cataract surgery is the most frequently performed surgery worldwide. Posterior capsule rupture (PCR) remains one of the most common complications of cataract surgery and a major risk factor for poor visual outcomes. Cataract surgeries complicated by PCR and vitreous loss are managed with anterior vitrectomy at the time of surgery. However, the situation can be further complicated by dropping lens particles into the vitreous cavity necessitating a secondary pars plana vitrectomy (PPV). Purpose: To compare the visual outcomes and risk of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) between eyes that required anterior vitrectomy (AV) alone for the management of vitreous loss and eyes that required AV and subsequent PPV for the management of dropped nuclear lens fragments (DNLF) following cataract surgery complicated by PCR in a tertiary care teaching hospital in Saudi Arabia. Methods: Medical records of patients in whom PCR occurred during phacoemulsification cataract surgery requiring AV or subsequent PPV for DNLF were retrospectively reviewed over a 6-year period from January 2016 to December 2021. Results: PCR occurred in 183 (2.3%) of 7757 consecutive eyes that underwent phacoemulsification cataract surgery during the study period. Seven eyes were excluded from analysis for missing data or short follow-up. Of the 176 eyes, 147 eyes (83.5%) were managed with AV alone, and the remaining 29 eyes (16.5%) underwent a secondary PPV for DNLF. After excluding eyes with pre-existing ocular pathology, final best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was similar in both groups with a mean of 0.32 logMAR (P = 0.99). Two of 147 eyes (1.4%) in the AV group developed RRD with poor final BCVA whereas none of the eyes in DNLF group developed RRD. Conclusion: The risk of RRD is lower in eyes that required PPV for DNLF than in eyes that were managed with AV alone following PCR during cataract surgery. The poor visual outcomes in eyes that suffered RRD underscore the importance of postoperative retinal examination and early detection of retinal breaks.
文摘Background: Retinal detachment is a major ophthalmologic emergency. The rhegmatogenous form is the most common and its management is exclusively surgical as soon as possible. This urgency becomes major and absolute when it occurs in a particular monocular vision. Purpose: To analyze the clinical forms of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD), the results and the complications of their management in monophthalmic patients. Methodology: This was a retrospective and analytical study from June 2007 to December 2019. We included all patients who received a consultation for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment. All patients were seen by at least two posterior segment specialists and all were operated on by the same surgeon. Results: 57 files (57 eyes) were collected with an average age of 44.71 years and a sex ratio of 7.14. The average consultation time is 40.80 days. Patients complained of decreased visual acuity in 96.49% of cases. We had myopia in 49.12% of cases and 91.23% of patients were phakic. Retinal holes were found in 31.58% of our patients and giant tears in 17.54%. The mean retinal detachment extension was 2.52 quadrants and the macula was raised in 32 cases. The average time taken to take charge was 10 days. Detachment surgery was performed in 42 patients with 100% anatomical recovery. Conclusion: Retinal detachment in one-eyed patient is a major ophthalmic emergency. Its management must not suffer from any delay. Post-operative outcomes are relatively similar between the internal and external pathways. In one-eyed patient, silicone can be left alone in the absence of complications.
文摘Aim: This study aimed to assess and compare the functional and anatomical results of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) alone versus PPV combined with scleral buckling (SB), and lens-sparing versus phaco-procedures for treating rhegmatogenous retinal detachment. Methods: A comprehensive literature search was performed using the Web of Science, MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases to retrieve comparative studies. The main objective was to assess the BCVA, while reattachment rates and ocular adverse events were considered secondary measures. Rev Manager software was used for statistical analysis. Results: The literature search identified 10 articles comprising 1518 eyes, with 682 eyes in the PPV group, 193 eyes in the lens-sparing versus phaco-procedure group, and 643 eyes in the combined PPV and SB surgery group. Quality assessment revealed a low risk of bias in most domains. The meta-analysis results revealed a significant difference in postoperative BCVA between the PPV and PPV combined with SB groups (WMD = −0.17, 95% CI [0.27, 0.07], p = 0.001). The primary reattachment rates were 82.80% for PPV alone and 87.52% for PPV combined with SB (p = 0.34). The final reattachment rates did not differ significantly between PPV and PPV combined with SB (99% vs. 99.8%;RR = 1.00, 95% CI [1.01, 0.99], p = 0.96). PPV alone demonstrated a significantly reduced risk of macular edema compared to PPV combined with scleral buckling (9.9% vs. 23%;p = 0.006). The incidences of macular hole development (p = 0.46), recurrent retinal detachment (p = 0.27), proliferative vitreoretinopathy development (p = 0.48), epiretinal membrane proliferation (p = 0.77), and limited choroidal hemorrhage (p = 0.69) were not significantly different between the two groups. Conclusions: These findings suggest that PPV alone may be a more effective treatment option in terms of visual acuity (VA) improvement, lower risk of macular edema and cataract development. However, there was no significant difference in VA improvement or complication rates between the lens-sparing and phaco-procedure groups. .
文摘Background: Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment in children is particular by its severity and challenging treatment. Purpose: To describe the clinical and therapeutic characteristics of pediatric rhegmatogenous retinal detachment. Method: We retrospectively included files of pediatric patients (aged 0 to 15 years), clinically diagnosed with rhematogenous retinal detachment (RRD) between January 2015 and June 2019. The ophthalmological examination was as complete as the age of the patients allowed and a pediatric examination was systematically performed in all children. The data has been processed with Excel 2016 software. Results: 16 eyes of 11 patients were included. The hospital frequency of RRD was 3.37%, with a sex ratio of 1.75 and a mean age of 11.9 years. The average consultation time was 2 months. Contusive eye trauma was reported in 31.25% and myopia in 18.75%. The visual acuity ranged from no light perception to 20/400. The RRD was total in 81.25% and retinal lesions were found in 43.75%, including 25% atrophic holes and tears with lattice degeneration, 12.5% temporal retinal dialysis and one giant tear. Stage B of Proliferative vitreoretinopathy was found in 18.75% and stage C in 56.25%. Scleral buckling was performed in 37.5% and 23G pars plana vitrectomy with silicone oil in 18.75%. The mean duration of follow-up was 24.6 months with anatomical success in 77.7% correlated with functional recovery in 55.5%. The RRD was persistent in one case and a recurrent RRD under silicone was observed in one eye. Two children underwent cataract surgery secondary to vitrectomy, and one case of ocular hypertonia under silicone was noted. Conclusion: Pediatric rhegmatogenous retinal detachment is a severe disease, with essentially traumatic etiology in older children. Delayed diagnosis is a factor in poor prognosis.
文摘Background: Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment in children is particular by its severity and challenging treatment. Purpose: To describe the clinical and therapeutic characteristics of pediatric rhegmatogenous retinal detachment. Method: We retrospectively included files of pediatric patients (aged 0 to 15 years), clinically diagnosed with rhematogenous retinal detachment (RRD) between January 2015 and June 2019. The ophthalmological examination was as complete as the age of the patients allowed and a pediatric examination was systematically performed in all children. The data has been processed with Excel 2016 software. Results: 16 eyes of 11 patients were included. The hospital frequency of RRD was 3.37%, with a sex ratio of 1.75 and a mean age of 11.9 years. The average consultation time was 2 months. Contusive eye trauma was reported in 31.25% and myopia in 18.75%. The visual acuity ranged from no light perception to 20/400. The RRD was total in 81.25% and retinal lesions were found in 43.75%, including 25% atrophic holes and tears with lattice degeneration, 12.5% temporal retinal dialysis and one giant tear. Stage B of Proliferative vitreoretinopathy was found in 18.75% and stage C in 56.25%. Scleral buckling was performed in 37.5% and 23G pars plana vitrectomy with silicone oil in 18.75%. The mean duration of follow-up was 24.6 months with anatomical success in 77.7% correlated with functional recovery in 55.5%. The RRD was persistent in one case and a recurrent RRD under silicone was observed in one eye. Two children underwent cataract surgery secondary to vitrectomy, and one case of ocular hypertonia under silicone was noted. Conclusion: Pediatric rhegmatogenous retinal detachment is a severe disease, with essentially traumatic etiology in older children. Delayed diagnosis is a factor in poor prognosis.
文摘Background: In highly myopic eyes, myopic foveoschisis (MF), the earliest stage of myopic traction maculopathy (MTM), is present in up to 34% of patients with pathologic myopia and slowly progresses to form foveoretinal detachment (FRD) or macular hole (MH) with or without macular hole retinal detachment (MHRD) as a part of its natural history. Aim: To describe the microstructural and functional results in three highly myopic eyes that underwent macular surgery for early-stage MTM. The last postoperative structural findings were correlated with the final vision and macular automated microperimetry evaluation. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed three highly myopic eyes that underwent successful fovea-saving internal limiting membrane (FS-ILM) macular surgery for chronic FRD at Oftalmologia Integral ABC, Mexico City, Mexico. We performed postoperative multimodal microstructural and functional evaluations, including SD-OCT, SS-OCT, and microperimetric macular examinations. Results: There was a substantial difference between best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) preoperatively and postoperatively in all three cases. Postoperative surgery was associated with significant improvement in visual acuity confirmed using a paired-sample permutation test. The mean presurgical BCVA value (LogMAR;mean ± SE) was ~0.83 ± 0.15, and the postsurgical value was ~0.43 ± 0.52 (P = 0.00065). The myopic foveoretinal detachment evaluation was ~7.3 ± 3.5 months, with a mean postoperative follow-up time of ~14 ± 4.08 months. Furthermore, postoperative multimodal imaging tests demonstrated an abnormal microstructural foveal SS-OCT pattern without evidence of macular hole (MH) development at the postoperative follow-up. Macular microperimetry confirmed a subclinical reduced macula threshold sensitivity with an anomalous retinal sensitivity analysis map and a stable central foveal fixation site. Conclusions: Even with the successful microstructural disappearance of myopic macular detachment, the last multidisciplinary functional and structural assessments demonstrated different subclinical macular alterations.
文摘Paediatric retinal detachment(PRD) is an uncommon and challenging disease;it differs from adult detachments in etiology,anatomical characteristics,management and prognosis.PRDs can be particularly challenging,even for the most expert paediatric surgeons due to the higher prevalence of total retinal detachments,late diagnosis and bilateral involvement with respect to those which occur in adulthood.Moreover,the anatomical success,when achieved,is frequently not related to a functional recover.Postsurgical adverse events,refractive errors and amblyopia may additionally undermine the final outcome.Up to date there are few reviews regarding the approach of retinal detachment in children,mainly dealing with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.In this review,rhegmatogenous,retinopathy of prematurityrelated and Coats'-related PRDs were considered.The available literature from the last decades were reviewed and summarized.Epidemiology,etiology and clinical presentation,together with therapeutic approaches and outcomes have been reviewed and discussed.
文摘AIM:To comprehensively analyze the risk factors of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment(RRD) associated with choroidal detachment(CD).METHODS:A total of 265 eyes of 265 consecutive cases of RRD were retrospectively analyzed.All patients had systemic and ophthalmologic examination.CD was diagnosed by indirect ophthalmoscopy,B-scan ultrasonography,and ultrasound biomicroscope(UBM).Each parameter was compared between patients of RRD and rhegmatogenous retinal detachment associated with choroidal detachment(RRDCD).Logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent risk factors of CD.RESULTS:There were 52 eyes(19.62%) with CD.Pseudophakia was more commonly seen in RRDCD(21.15% vs 6.10%,P=0.002).Intraocular pressure(IOP)was lower(8.60±3.62 vs 12.96±3.55,P<0.001),bestcorrected visual acuity was worse[3.00(2.00 to 3.00) vs 1.92(1.22 to 3.00),P=0.001],and refractive error was more myopic[-4(-9 to -2) vs-2(-6 to 0),P =0.007]in RRDCD.Eyes with RRDCD had larger extent of retinal detachment(P=0.007).In RRDCD,34.62% of eyes presented with multiple holes(P=0.044) and 25.00% with macular holes(P=0.012),compared with 20.66% and 14.08% in RRD.High myopia(P=0.039),low IOP(P=0.017),and larger extent of retinal detachment(P<0.001) were significant and independent risk factors for developing CD.CONCLUSION:For CD in RRD,related factors include BCVA,IOP,lens status,refractive error,extent of retinal detachment,number of holes,and macular hole.Larger extent of retinal detachment,high myopia,and low IOP are significant and independent risk factors.

文摘AIM: To compare the incidence of persistent submacular fluid(SMF) and visual outcome after pars plana vitrectomy(PPV) for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment(RRD) in different preoperative macular status according to optical coherence tomography(OCT).METHODS: A non-randomized, retrospective review was performed for patients who underwent successful PPV for RRD. OCT exams were taken preoperatively and 1 mo after surgery, until SMF disappeared. According to the preoperative macular status on OCT, patients were divided into two groups: macula-off RRD(Group A) and maculaon RRD(Group B). In Group A, there were two subgroups: macula partly detached(Group A1) and macula totally detached(Group A2). The main outcome measures were the presence of SMF on OCT 1 mo after surgery, and the preoperative and postoperative best corrected visual acuities(BCVA), among the different groups and depending on the presence or absence of persistent SMF.RESULTS: A total of 139 eyes of 139 patients were included in the study. Persistent SMF at 1 mo after surgery was 15.8%(22/139), all occurring in Group A(22/101); Group B had no SMF at 1 mo after surgery(0/38, P=0.002). The incidence of persistent SMF at 1 mo after surgery in Group A1 was 50%(14/28), and in Group A2 was 11.0%(8/73, P<0.001). Significant differences were shown between the presence and absence of persistent SMF on foveolaoff RRD, the preoperative BCVA, the 1 mo postoperative BCVA, and the degree of the BCVA improvement from 1 mo postoperatively to the final follow-up(P<0.05). However, there were no significant differences in the final BCVA(P>0.05).CONCLUSION: Persistent SMF after PPV for retinal detachment is associated with preoperative macular status. Macula-uninvolving RRD shows no persistent SMF after PPV. Macular partly detached RRD has a higher incidence of SMF than macula totally detached RRD after PPV. The persistence of SMF may be responsible for the delayed visual recovery, whereas there were no significant differences in the final visual acuity.
文摘AIM:To provide a detailed description of the natural history of persistent subretinal fluid(SRF)after successful repair of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment(RRD)and its association with visual outcome.METHODS:This was a prospective long-term follow-up for eyes undergoing scleral buckling(SB)surgery for maculaoff RRD.Examinations were carried out preoperatively and postoperatively at 1,3,6,9 and 12 mo,until persistent SRF had completely resolved.One month postoperatively,optical coherence tomography(OCT)was used to classify SRF into three patterns:bleb-like loculated(BL),shallow-diffused(SD),and multiple blebs(MB).Serial OCT imaging was used to evaluate morphological changes in SRF until its complete disappearance.Patients were divided into two groups depending on the presence or absence of persistent SRF.RESULTS:A total of 59 patients(59 eyes)were included.There were no statistical differences between two groups at baseline,except for the proportion of patients with high myopia and a younger age.One month after surgery,OCT detected persistent SRF in 49 eyes(83.1%).The 3 morphological patterns of SRF were observed in 27 eyes(55.1%)with BL,13 eyes(26.5%)with SD,and 9 eyes(18.4%)with MB.The mean time for complete absorption differed significantly across the three SRF patterns(F=8.097,P=0.001),which was 8.8±6.1,20.1±12.1,and 16.7±10.2 mo in BL,SD,and MB,respectively.In 9 of the 13 eyes with SD,the pattern transformed into MB type.In cases involving MB,the size and number of blebs decreased gradually until they had been completely absorbed.Eyes with persistent SRF were more likely to demonstrate disruption of the ellipsoid zone(49.0%vs 10%,P=0.034).The final best-corrected visual acuity of two groups was 0.37±0.11(with SRF)vs 0.34±0.12(without SRF)logMAR(P=0.499),respectively.CONCLUSION:High preoperative myopia and younger age are associated with persistent SRF.BL is the most commonly observed pattern with the shortest duration and gradually disappeared.Most cases involving SD SRF transform into MB type during resolution.The size and number of the MBs decrease gradually until they were completely absorbed.The absence of persistent SRF may contribute to slow visual recovery in the short-term but does not influence the final visual outcome.
