Retinal reattachment was achieved with a single operation in 47(95.9%) of 49 eyes. In two eyes (4.1%), retinal redetachment due to new breaks was successfully treated with reoperation using the 23-G TSV system. Mean logMAR visual acuity was 2.01±0.47 preoperatively and 1.3±0.5 postoperatively (P <0.001, Paired t -test). Mean preoperative intraocular pressure (IOP) was 14.1±2.8mmHg. Mean postoperative IOP was 12.3±3.6mmHg at 1 day, 13.1±2.1mmHg at 1 week, 14.3±2.2mmHg at 1 month. Iatrogenic peripheral retinal break was observed in 1 eye(2.0%) intraoperatively. No sutures were required to close the scleral or conjunctival openings, and no eyes required convertion of surgery to 20-G vitrectomy. · CONCLUSION: Primary 23-G TSV system was observed to be effective and safe in the treatment of RRD.展开更多

All subjects underwent a standard three -port 20G pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with lensectomy and silicone oil tamponade. Mean follow -up time was 8 months (rang from 4 to 19 months). The primary and final anatomic success rate, visual acuity and final intraocular pressure (IOP) were recorded and analyzed. ·RESULTS: Of 21 subjects, 8 were women and 13 were men. Age at presentation ranged from 22 to 75 years (mean 57.4 years). The presenting vision ranged from light perception to 0.15. The initial IOP ranged from 3mmHg to 12mmHg (mean 6.2mmHg). All eyes were phakic except one pseudophakic. No intraocular lens was implanted during the primary surgical intervention. Fifteen of 21 (71.4%) eyes had retina reattached after one operation. Six eyes had recurrent inferior retinal detachment due to proliferation. Five of them were successfully reattached after one or more additional operations. Mean IOP at final follow -up was 15.2mmHg (range from 8mmHg to 20mmHg). One case declined for further operation. The final reattachment rate was 95.2%. Visual acuity improved in 19 (90.5%) eyes, was unchanged in 1 (4.8%) eye and decreased in 1 (4.8%) eye.·CONCLUSION: Combination of vitrectomy, lensectomy and silicone tamponade is an effective method in treating RRD associated with CD, reducing the incidence of postoperative hypotony.展开更多

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% ys6.10%, P=0.002）. Intraocular pressure （lOP） was lower （8.60 ±3.62 ys 12.96 ±3.55, P 〈0.001）, best - corrected 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 R RD. High myopia （P=0.039）, low lOP （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, lOP, lens status, refractive error, extent of retinal detachment, number of holes, and macular hole. Larger extent of retinal detachment, high myopia, and low lOP are significant and independent risk factors.展开更多

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

The collected variables consisted of age, date, gender, time of injury, time until repair, mechanism of injury, zone of injury, injury associated vitreous hemorrhage, trauma associated RD, post traumatic RD, aphakia at injury, periocular trauma and OTS in cases of OGI. RESULTS: Totally 102 patients with traumatic OGI with a minimum of 12 mo follow-up and a median age at of 48.6 y(range: 3-104 y) were identified. Final best corrected visual acuity(BCVA) was independent from the time of repair, yet a statistically significant difference was present between the final BCVA and the zone of injury. Severe trauma presenting with an OTS score Ⅰ(P<0.0001) or Ⅱ(P<0.0001) revealed a significantly worse BCVA at last follow up when compared to the cohort with an OTS score >Ⅲ. OGI associated RD was observed in 36/102 patients(35.3%), whereas post traumatic RD(defined as RD following 14 d after OGI) occurred in 37 patients(36.3%). OGI associated RD did not correlate with the OTS and the zone of injury(P=0.193), yet post traumatic RD correlated significantly with zone Ⅲ injuries(P=0.013). CONCLUSION: The study shows a significant association between lower OTS score and zone Ⅲ injury with lower final BCVA and a higher number of surgeries, but only zone Ⅲ could be significantly associated with a higher rate of RD.展开更多

METHODS: A retrospective, consecutive and case series study of 40 patients with inferior break RD and PVR >= C1 was conducted. All patients underwent a standard 3-port 20-gauge pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with gas or silicone oil tamponade without supplementary scleral buckling. The vitreous and all proliferative membrane were completely removed, and retinectomy was performed when necessary. The mean follow-up was 12.5 months. The primary and final anatomic success rate, visual acuity and complications were recorded and analyzed. RESULTS: Primary anatomic success rate was achieved in 35 of 40 eyes (87.5%) and the final anatomic success rate was 100%. The most common cause of redetachment was recurrent PVR. The best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) at final follow-up was improved in 34 eyes (85%), remained stable in 1 eye (2.5%), and worsened in 5 eyes (12.5%). The mean visual acuity at final follow-up was improved significantly (P=0.000). CONCLUSION: This retrospective study provides evidence that vitrectomy without scleral buckling seemed to be an effective treatment for inferior break RD with PVR. With complete removal of vitreous and proliferative membranes and timing of retinectomy, the inferior breaks which complicated with PVR could be dosed successfully without additional sclera! buckling.展开更多

In other animals, retinas were subjected to immunoprecipitation and Western Blotting, then probed with anti-RIP1, phosphoserine, LC-3II or caspase 8antibody.RESULTS:It was proved by immunoprecipitation and western blotting, that photoreceptor necroptosis was mediated by caspase-8 inhibition and receptor interacting protein kinase(RIP1) phosphorylation activation. Transmission electron microscope and western blotting results indicated that photoreceptornecroptosis was involved the LC-3II and autophagosomes induction. We also discovered Necrostatin-1 could inhibit RIP1 phosphorylation and LC-3II induction.CONCLUSION:These data firstly indicate photoreceptor necroptosis is associated with the activation of autophagy. Necrostatin-1 protects photoreceptors from necroptosis and autophagy by down-regulation of RIP1 phosphorylation and LC-3II.展开更多

文摘AIM:To investigate the underlying causes of surgical failure and reoperation management in patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment(RRD)who underwent scleral buckle surgery at our institution.METHODS:This was a single-center,retrospective,descriptive study.The clinical data of 368 patients(387 eyes)with RRD who underwent scleral buckling(SB)surgery between August 2013 and July 2023 at our institution were collected.The aim was to analyze the causes of recurrence and the rationale for selecting reoperation methods.RESULTS:Totally 368 patients(387 eyes)were included in the analysis,comprising 222 males and 146 females.The average age was 30.26±14.18 years,and the mean follow-up duration was(48.33±20.39)mo.The success rate of SB surgery was 90.2%.Recurrent retinal detachment occurred in 38 eyes.Based on surgical records,the causes of SB failure were analyzed.The recurrence causes included abnormal compression ridge position(position,height,or width)in 14 eyes(36.8%,14/38),hole omission in 11 eyes(29.0%,11/38),proliferative vitreoretinopathy(PVR)in 10 eyes(26.3%,10/38),and new holes in 3 eyes(7.9%,3/38).Among these,8 eyes(21.1%,8/38)underwent repeat SB surgery,while the remaining 30 eyes(78.9%,30/38)underwent pars plana vitrectomy(PPV).Regarding tamponade agents,silicone oil was used in 11 eyes(36.7%,11/30),C 3F 8 gas in 12 eyes(40.0%,12/30),and sterile air in 7 eyes(23.3%,7/30).CONCLUSION:SB surgery demonstrates a high success rate in the treatment of RRD.However,abnormal compression ridge position,missed holes during surgery,and PVR are the primary causes of SB failure.After addressing the reasons for failure,re-SB surgery or PPV can be effective alternatives.
文摘Improvements in surgical techniques have led to 90% success in the surgical repair of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment(RRD).However,anatomical reattachment of the retina does not ensure complete recovery of visual function.The incidence of metamorphopsia remains the most common postoperative complaint,from 24% to 88.6%.Currently,the risk factors of metamorphopsia are categorized into macular involvement,retinal shift,outer retinal folds,subretinal fluid,secondary epiretinal membrane,outer retinal layer damage,and surgical approach.The associations of metamorphopsia with postoperative best-corrected visual acuity and postoperative vision-related quality of life were still controversial.The most popular methods for assessment of metamorphopsia remain the Amsler grid and M-Charts.Most treatments cannot progress beyond the management of negative visual sensations,through methods such as occlusion therapy and aniseikonia-correcting spectacles.The main treatment approach involves RRD prevention and the management of risk factors that can lead to postoperative metamorphopsia after RRD repair.Additional research concerning metamorphopsia treatment,further upgrades of auxiliary inspection methods,and more accurate microstructural assessments are needed to address this common complication.
文摘AIM:To report the refractive and surgical outcomes of scleral buckling(SB)with or without pars plana vitrectomy(PPV)in patients with pseudophakic rhegmatogenous retinal detachment(PRRD).METHODS:A consecutive case series of patients with pseudophakia who underwent retinal detachment(RD)surgery was enrolled.The SB procedures were selected to initially treat primary pseudophakic PRRDs and SB-PPV for more complex cases,according to preoperative findings.Eyes with anterior chamber intraocular lens,proliferative vitreoretinopathy anterior to equator,previous invasive glaucoma surgery,severe degenerative myopia or macular hole,and<6mo follow-up were excluded from outcomes analysis.The primary clinical outcome measures were the single surgery anatomic success(SSAS)and final surgery anatomic success(FSAS)rates.Secondary outcome measures were postoperative visual acuity and refractive error.RESULTS:A total of 81 consecutive patients(81 eyes)were enrolled for analysis,comprising 66(81%)men and 15(19%)women with a mean age of 58y(range,33-86y)and the mean final follow-up period was 21.0±19.6mo.A total of 62 PRRDs(n=62;76.5%)were repaired with an initial SB,and 19 PRRDs(n=19;23.5%)were repaired with a combined SB-PPV.The SSAS and FSAS rates were 92.6%(75/81)and 100%(81/81),respectively.All initial failures had retinal reattachment after the secondary PPV.The mean final postoperative best-corrected visual acuity(BCVA)was 0.42±0.33 logMAR(visual acuity 20/55)and final mean refractive error was-1.48±1.40 diopters.The patients who underwent initially SB-PPV had a significantly longer duration of RD and a higher giant retinal tear rate(P<0.05)preoperatively.SSAS was 56/62(90.3%)and 19/19(100%),and the mean postoperative refractive error was-1.30±1.32 D and-1.53±1.38 D for the patients in the SB and SB-PPV groups,respectively.There was no statistically significant difference for those who had SSAS and postoperative refractive errors between the 2 groups.The postoperative BCVAs of the patients with SSAS were not significantly better in the SB group(median,20/40)than in the SB-PPV group(median 20/50).In the SB group,patients with macula-on had better visual acuity postoperatively than patients with macula-off(P=0.000).CONCLUSION:The initial surgical procedures of SB with or without PPV according to the preoperative findings achieve a high reattachment rate and an acceptable refractive error for primary pseudophakic RRD management.

文摘AIM:To compare the proportion of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment(RRD)associated with choroidal detachment(RRDCD)in the emergency surgery group with the routine inpatient surgery group and determine risk factors for RRDCD.METHODS:A total of 694 patients(694 eyes)diagnosed with RRD in the emergency surgery(the median duration of RRD was 5d)group were included from the Department of Ophthalmic Emergency,and 692 patients(eyes)in the routine inpatient surgery group(the median duration was 15d)were selected randomly from the Ocular Fundus Department.Demographics,refractive status,macular status,lens status,extent of retinal detachment,number of retinal breaks,duration of symptoms before surgery,and the incidence of RRDCD were compared.A logistic regression analysis was used to determine potential risk factors for RRDCD.RESULTS:Compared to the routine inpatient surgery group,the emergency surgery group had a significant less median time to surgery(P<0.001)and a decreased proportion of RRDCD(2.88%vs 10.84%,P<0.001).Logistic regression analysis revealed that a prolonged duration of RRD[OR 3.51,95%confidence interval(CI)1.98-6.23],pseudophakia/aphakia status[OR 2.74,95%CI(1.50-4.98)],multiple retinal breaks[OR 1.67,95%CI(1.03-2.70)],and a substantial extent of RRD[OR 11.58,95%CI(7.12-18.84)]were independent risk factors for RRDCD.CONCLUSION:Emergency surgical pattern of RRD demonstrates a lower incidence of RRDCD.The adoption of an expedited surgical approach has the potential to reduce the duration of RRD,possibly correlating with a decreased risk of RRDCD development.

文摘AIM:To establish a risk prediction model for secondary cataract within 2y after pars plana vitrectomy(PPV)in patients with primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment(RRD).METHODS:Clinical data of patients with primary RRD treated at the Shenzhen Eye Hospital were retrospectively collected.Twenty-four potential influencing factors,including patient characteristics and surgical factors,were selected for analysis.Independent risk factors for secondary cataract were identified through univariate comparisons and multivariate logistic regression analysis.A risk prediction model was constructed and evaluated using receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves,area under the ROC curve(AUC),calibration plots,and decision curve analysis(DCA)curves.RESULTS:The 386 cases(389 eyes)of patients who underwent PPV and had complete surgical records were ultimately included.Within a 2-year longitudinal observation,41.39%of patients developed cataract secondary to PPV.Logistic regression results identified a history of hypertension[odds ratio(OR)=1.78,95%CI:1.002–3.163,P=0.049],silicone oil tamponade(OR=3.667,95%CI:2.373–5.667,P=0.000),and lens thickness(OR=1.978,95%CI:1.129–3.464,P=0.017)as independent risk factors for cataract secondary to PPV.The constructed nomogram achieved AUC=0.6974.Calibration plots indicated good agreement between predicted and observed outcomes,while DCA curves demonstrated the model’s clinical utility.CONCLUSION:By incorporating a history of hypertension,vitreous substitute type,and lens thickness,this study constructs a prediction model with moderate discriminative ability.This model offers a valuable tool for clinicians to identify high-risk patients early,potentially allowing for more timely interventions and improved patient outcomes.
文摘AIM:To identify risk factors for postoperative blindness in patients with primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment(RRD)at their first presentation to a tertiary center,using a large clinical database to improve understanding of this adverse outcome.METHODS:Electronic health records of patients with primary RRD from the Eye Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University were retrospectively analyzed.Postoperative blindness was defined according to the World Health Organization(WHO)criteria for legal blindness.Potential risk factors included demographic characteristics,preoperative clinical features,and surgical variables.Univariable and multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to calculate odds ratios(ORs)and 95%confidence intervals(CIs)for each risk factor.RESULTS:A total of 532 patients were included in the cohort,of whom 62(12.0%;28 males,34 females)developed postoperative blindness at the final follow-up.Among these 62 patients,30 had high myopia and 32 did not.The mean age of participants was 49.0±16.4y,with 275 subjects(52%)being male and 133 patients(25%)having the condition in the right eye.In the multivariable model for all patients,the following factors were associated with an increased risk of postoperative blindness:higher preoperative logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution visual acuity(logMAR VA;OR=1.09 per 0.1 logMAR unit increase,95%CI 1.03-1.15);inferior or superior retinal breaks(OR=2.42,95%CI 1.12-5.24);and macular holes or superior retinal breaks(OR=8.46,95%CI 3.45-20.75).In the subgroup of patients with high myopia,risk factors for postoperative blindness included:pseudophakia/aphakia versus phakia(OR=6.33,95%CI 1.41-28.31);macular holes or superior retinal breaks(OR=15.15,95%CI 3.07-74.85);and proliferative vitreoretinopathy(PVR;OR=21.41,95%CI 2.14-214.57).In the subgroup of patients without high myopia,increased risk of postoperative blindness was associated with:higher preoperative logMAR VA(OR=1.11 per 0.1 logMAR unit increase,95%CI 1.04-1.18);and inferior or superior retinal breaks(OR=2.90,95%CI 1.19-7.06).CONCLUSION:Using a large real-world clinical database,we identified distinct risk factors for postoperative blindness in patients with primary RRD-including differences between those with and without high myopia.These findings emphasize the need to target specific risk factors in clinical practice to mitigate and reduce the incidence of postoperative blindness in this patient population.
文摘AIM:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of combining posterior scleral contraction(PSC)with intravitreal perfluoropropane(C_(3)F_(8))injection in high myopia with macular hole retinal detachment(MHRD).METHODS:A total of 22 participants(22 eyes)with high myopia[axial length(AL)≥26.5 mm]and MHRD who underwent PSC combined with intravitreal C_(3)F_(8)injection,with at least 6mo of follow-up were retrospectively recruited.Outcome measures included best-corrected visual acuity(BCVA),AL,optical coherence tomography(OCT)findings,and adverse events.Retinal recovery was categorized as type Ⅰ(macular hole bridging with retinal reattachment)or type Ⅱ(reattachment without hole bridging).RESULTS:The mean age of participants was 62.1±8.8y and mean follow-up duration was 9.18±4.21mo.Complete retinal reattachment was observed in 11 eyes(50%)at postoperative day 1,19 eyes(86.3%)at week 1,and all 22 eyes at month 1.Ten eyes(45.5%)achieved type Ⅰ recovery and 12 eyes(54.5%)achieved type Ⅱ.Mean BCVA improved from 1.68±0.84 logMAR before surgery to 1.21±0.65 logMAR after surgery(P<0.001),and AL was significantly reduced compared to baseline(29.07±2.05 vs 30.8±2.2 mm;P<0.001).No serious complications were reported.CONCLUSION:PSC combined with intravitreal C_(3)F_(8)injection is a safe and effective treatment for MHRD in highly myopic eyes,especially for retinal detachment limited within the vascular arcade.

文摘AIM:To evaluate the surgical outcomes of the perfluorocarbon liquid(PFCL)-assisted inverted multilayer internal limiting membrane(ILM)flaps covering technique in macular hole retinal detachment(MHRD)in high myopia with axial length(AL)≥30 mm.METHODS:In this retrospective,interventional,consecutive comparative study,44 MHRD eyes were divided into two groups:the PFCL-assisted inverted multilayer ILM flaps covering technique group(Group 1,21 eyes)and the ILM peeling group(Group 2,23 eyes).The follow-up period was>12mo.Postoperative outcomes,including retinal reattachment,macular hole(MH)closure,and bestcorrected visual acuity(BCVA),were assessed.Statistical analysis using the Mann–Whitney U test and Fisher’s exact test was conducted to compare differences between groups.RESULTS:There were no statistically significant differences in baseline preoperative clinical characteristics,including age,sex,AL,diopters,duration of symptom,lens status,posterior staphyloma presence and extent of RD.Retinal reattachment rates were higher in Group 1(90.5%)than in Group 2(82.6%),without statistical significance(P=0.667).MH closure rates were significantly higher in Group 1(85.7%)than in Group 2(17.4%;P<0.001).The Group-1 BCVA(logMAR)improved significantly from 2.13±0.91 preoperatively to 1.21±0.66 postoperatively(P=0.026).The Group 2 BCVA improved significantly from 1.91±0.53 preoperatively to 1.19±0.41 postoperatively(P=0.032).However,there were no significant differences in visual-acuity improvement between groups(P=0.460).CONCLUSION:This technique offers a more effective approach for improving MH closure rates and postoperative visual function in MHRD with AL≥30 mm in high myopia.
文摘Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment(RRD)is a sight threatening condition in which the neurosensory retina separates from the underlying retinal pigment epithelium.With an incidence of 6.3 to 17.9 per 100,000 persons(1),RRD is a condition frequently encountered by vitreoretinal specialists.Because the fovea is responsible for central visual acuity,foveal detachment is associated with poor presenting vision and is the strongest prognostic factor predicting poor visual outcome after RRD repair(2).
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 report the effectiveness and safety of primary 23-Gauge (G) vitreoretinal surgery for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD). · METHODS: In this retrospective study, 49 eyes of 49 consecutive patients who underwent primary 23-G transconjunctival sutureless vitrectomy (TSV) for RRD between January 2007 and July 2009 at our institution were evaluated. · RESULTS: Mean follow-up time was 8.9±7.7 months (1-28 months). Retinal reattachment was achieved with a single operation in 47(95.9%) of 49 eyes. In two eyes (4.1%), retinal redetachment due to new breaks was successfully treated with reoperation using the 23-G TSV system. Mean logMAR visual acuity was 2.01±0.47 preoperatively and 1.3±0.5 postoperatively (P <0.001, Paired t -test). Mean preoperative intraocular pressure (IOP) was 14.1±2.8mmHg. Mean postoperative IOP was 12.3±3.6mmHg at 1 day, 13.1±2.1mmHg at 1 week, 14.3±2.2mmHg at 1 month. Iatrogenic peripheral retinal break was observed in 1 eye(2.0%) intraoperatively. No sutures were required to close the scleral or conjunctival openings, and no eyes required convertion of surgery to 20-G vitrectomy. · CONCLUSION: Primary 23-G TSV system was observed to be effective and safe in the treatment of RRD.
文摘AIM: To report the results of combined vitrectomy, lensectomy and silicone oil (SO) tamponade in treating primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) associated with choroidal detachment (CD). · METHODS: A retrospective, consecutive and case series study of 21 subjects with concurrent RRD associated with CD was conducted. All subjects underwent a standard three -port 20G pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with lensectomy and silicone oil tamponade. Mean follow -up time was 8 months (rang from 4 to 19 months). The primary and final anatomic success rate, visual acuity and final intraocular pressure (IOP) were recorded and analyzed. ·RESULTS: Of 21 subjects, 8 were women and 13 were men. Age at presentation ranged from 22 to 75 years (mean 57.4 years). The presenting vision ranged from light perception to 0.15. The initial IOP ranged from 3mmHg to 12mmHg (mean 6.2mmHg). All eyes were phakic except one pseudophakic. No intraocular lens was implanted during the primary surgical intervention. Fifteen of 21 (71.4%) eyes had retina reattached after one operation. Six eyes had recurrent inferior retinal detachment due to proliferation. Five of them were successfully reattached after one or more additional operations. Mean IOP at final follow -up was 15.2mmHg (range from 8mmHg to 20mmHg). One case declined for further operation. The final reattachment rate was 95.2%. Visual acuity improved in 19 (90.5%) eyes, was unchanged in 1 (4.8%) eye and decreased in 1 (4.8%) eye.·CONCLUSION: Combination of vitrectomy, lensectomy and silicone tamponade is an effective method in treating RRD associated with CD, reducing the incidence of postoperative hypotony.
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% ys6.10%, P=0.002）. Intraocular pressure （lOP） was lower （8.60 ±3.62 ys 12.96 ±3.55, P 〈0.001）, best - corrected 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 R RD. High myopia （P=0.039）, low lOP （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, lOP, lens status, refractive error, extent of retinal detachment, number of holes, and macular hole. Larger extent of retinal detachment, high myopia, and low lOP 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 elucidate the question of whether the ocular trauma score(OTS) and the zones of injury could be used as a predictive model of traumatic and post traumatic retinal detachment(RD) in patients with open globe injury(OGI).METHODS: A retrospective observational chart analysis of OGI patients was performed. The collected variables consisted of age, date, gender, time of injury, time until repair, mechanism of injury, zone of injury, injury associated vitreous hemorrhage, trauma associated RD, post traumatic RD, aphakia at injury, periocular trauma and OTS in cases of OGI. RESULTS: Totally 102 patients with traumatic OGI with a minimum of 12 mo follow-up and a median age at of 48.6 y(range: 3-104 y) were identified. Final best corrected visual acuity(BCVA) was independent from the time of repair, yet a statistically significant difference was present between the final BCVA and the zone of injury. Severe trauma presenting with an OTS score Ⅰ(P<0.0001) or Ⅱ(P<0.0001) revealed a significantly worse BCVA at last follow up when compared to the cohort with an OTS score >Ⅲ. OGI associated RD was observed in 36/102 patients(35.3%), whereas post traumatic RD(defined as RD following 14 d after OGI) occurred in 37 patients(36.3%). OGI associated RD did not correlate with the OTS and the zone of injury(P=0.193), yet post traumatic RD correlated significantly with zone Ⅲ injuries(P=0.013). CONCLUSION: The study shows a significant association between lower OTS score and zone Ⅲ injury with lower final BCVA and a higher number of surgeries, but only zone Ⅲ could be significantly associated with a higher rate of RD.

文摘AIM: To investigate the efficacy of non-buckled vitrectomy with classical endotamponade agents in the treatment of primary retinal detachment (RD) complicated by inferior breaks and proliferative vitreoretinophathy (PVR). METHODS: A retrospective, consecutive and case series study of 40 patients with inferior break RD and PVR >= C1 was conducted. All patients underwent a standard 3-port 20-gauge pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with gas or silicone oil tamponade without supplementary scleral buckling. The vitreous and all proliferative membrane were completely removed, and retinectomy was performed when necessary. The mean follow-up was 12.5 months. The primary and final anatomic success rate, visual acuity and complications were recorded and analyzed. RESULTS: Primary anatomic success rate was achieved in 35 of 40 eyes (87.5%) and the final anatomic success rate was 100%. The most common cause of redetachment was recurrent PVR. The best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) at final follow-up was improved in 34 eyes (85%), remained stable in 1 eye (2.5%), and worsened in 5 eyes (12.5%). The mean visual acuity at final follow-up was improved significantly (P=0.000). CONCLUSION: This retrospective study provides evidence that vitrectomy without scleral buckling seemed to be an effective treatment for inferior break RD with PVR. With complete removal of vitreous and proliferative membranes and timing of retinectomy, the inferior breaks which complicated with PVR could be dosed successfully without additional sclera! buckling.
文摘AIM:To evaluate the safety and efficacy of Densiron 68 heavy silicone oil (HSO) tamponade for complicated retinal detachment(RD)in Chinese eyes.METHODS:Twenty-one eyes of 21 patients with complicated RD were included in this retrospective study.All patients underwent pars plana vitrectomy with an internal tamponade using Densiron 68 HSO.Anatomical and functional results and complications were evaluated,including retinal status,visual acuity(VA),intraocular pressure(IOP),intraocular inflammation,lens opacity,and HSO emulsification.RESULTS:Allthepatients were followed up for 3mo to1y(5.8±1.16mo).Retinal reattachment was achieved in 19of 21 patients(90.5%).VA improved in 18 of 21 patients(85.7%),from 1.93 logMAR(±0.48)to 1.52 logMAR(±0.45)(P=0.001).Postoperative complications included early dispersion of HSO in 7 eyes(38.8%),cataract in 10 of 18phakic eyes(55.5%),moderate postoperative inflammation reaction in 10 eyes(47.6%),and elevated IOP in 5 eyes(23.8%),all of which were controlled by medication or by surgery.CONCLUSION:Highanatomical and functional success rates can be achieved with primary vitrectomy for complicated RD by using Densiron 68 HSO;however,it should not be ignored that Densiron 68 HSO can cause some complications in the eye.
文摘AIM:To analyze the anatomical and functional outcomes in the inferior recurrences of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment(RRD)depending on the surgical approach.METHODS:Eighty-one eyes of 81 patients(47 males and 34 females with a mean age of 54.8±14.1y)who demonstrated at least one inferior recurrence of RRD were included in this retrospective study.All patients were categorized as having received either circular scleral buckling(SB),pars plana vitrectomy(PPV),a combination of SB and PPV(SB+PPV),PPV with retinotomy(PPV+RT),or PPV+RT and short-term postoperative perfluorocarbon liquid tamponade(PPV+RT+pPFCL).All cases were followed up until successful retinal reattachment or third recurrence.The primary outcome measures were the achievement of the surgical goal without recurrence of RRD and bestcorrected visual acuity(BCVA).RESULTS:After the treatment of the first recurrence,the recurrence rate in the PPV+SB group was statistically significantly lower than that of the PPV(P=0.0012),PPV+RT(P=0.028),or PPV+RT+pPFCL(P=0.047)group.There was no statistically significant difference between PPV+SB,PPV+RT,and PPV+RT+pPFCL groups in the recurrence rate after treatment of the second recurrence(42 eyes).However,there was a statistically significant(P=0.016)trend towards a decrease of recurrence rate after PPV+RT+pPFCL.There was no statistically significant improvement of BCVA in either study group(P>0.05)after both first and second recurrence surgery.The mean time follow-up was 109.0±91.0d before the first recurrence and 210.0±186.6d between previous surgery at second recurrence.CONCLUSION:Patients with first inferior recurrence of RRD may benefit from SB as an adjunct to PPV.RT and short-term pPFCL tamponade in the second recurrence may allow better anatomical outcomes,however,without functional improvement.

文摘AIM:To investigate whether photoreceptor necroptosis induced by z-VAD-FMK(pan caspase inhibitor) was involved the activation of autophagy and whether Necrostatin-1, a specific necroptosis inhibitor, could inhibit this induction of autophagy after experimental retinal detachment.METHODS:Experimental retinal detachment models were created in Sprague-Dawley rats by subretinal injection of sodium hyaluronate and subretinal injections of z-VAD-FMK, vehicle or z-VAD-FMK plus Necrostatin-1.Three days after retinal detachment, morphologic changes were observed by transmission electron microscopy. In other animals, retinas were subjected to immunoprecipitation and Western Blotting, then probed with anti-RIP1, phosphoserine, LC-3II or caspase 8antibody.RESULTS:It was proved by immunoprecipitation and western blotting, that photoreceptor necroptosis was mediated by caspase-8 inhibition and receptor interacting protein kinase(RIP1) phosphorylation activation. Transmission electron microscope and western blotting results indicated that photoreceptornecroptosis was involved the LC-3II and autophagosomes induction. We also discovered Necrostatin-1 could inhibit RIP1 phosphorylation and LC-3II induction.CONCLUSION:These data firstly indicate photoreceptor necroptosis is associated with the activation of autophagy. Necrostatin-1 protects photoreceptors from necroptosis and autophagy by down-regulation of RIP1 phosphorylation and LC-3II.
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.
