RESUMO

PURPOSE: To report on results of pars plana vitrectomy with ILM peeling in patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) and concomitant macular hole (MH) and to assess for preoperative associated conditions related to this type of RRD. METHODS: Patients undergoing surgical repair for RRD between 2014 and 2021 were reviewed, and subjects with concomitant, non-causal, macular hole were identified. We studied post-operative macular status, retinal reattachment rate and visual acuity. RESULTS: Over 532 eyes operated on for RRD, 11 (2.06%) had a concurrent non-causal macular hole. Preoperative PVR B or superior was recorded in 86 eyes (16.6%) of the entire cohort and in 6 eyes (54.54 %) with RRD and concomitant MH (p=0.00001). Severe hypotony with choroidal detachment was present in 15 eyes (2.81%) of the entire cohort and in 3 eyes (27.27%) with RRD and concomitant MH (p=<0.00001). CONCLUSIONS: RRD with concomitant MH is an infrequent association. Retinal reattachment and anatomical hole closure can be achieved in most of cases but despite this fact, functional recovery is usually not good. Preoperative PVR is a more frequent finding in this group of patients, as well as severe hypotony with choroidal detachment.

RESUMO

ABSTRACT Objective To assess pre-operative conditions that could influence primary anatomical success rate in a cohort of patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachments (RRD) treated with primary vitrectomy and no scleral buckling. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed in a group of patients that underwent primary pars plana vitrectomy with gas tamponade and without scleral buckling for RRD between 2014 and 2019, with a minimum follow-up of 4 months. Results 305 eyes of 301 patients were included; 59.01% eyes were phakic, 39.01% were pseudophakic and 1.96% aphakic. 13.11% of patients had proliferative vitreoretinopathy grade B and 3.28% proliferative vitreoretinopathy grade C at the time of diagnosis while 83.61% had proliferative vitreoretinopathy grade 0 or A. 53.1% had superior breaks, 15.4% inferior breaks and 31.5% a combination of both. Primary success rate was obtained in 90.82% of eyes (95%CI 87.58-94.06). 9.18% of eyes (95%CI 5.94-12.42) re-detached. In 3.27% the cause of re-detachment was proliferative vitreoretinopathy, and in the remaining 5.90% because of a new or a missed break, the leakage of a previously treated break, or an area of shallow peripheral detachment with no detectable break. Of 181 phakic eyes, 10.49% re-detached, whereas in over 126 aphakic or pseudophakic eyes 7.75% re-detached (p=0.42). 16.39% eyes of the entire cohort had preoperative grade B or C proliferative vitreoretinopathy, whereas 32.14% of re-detached eyes had preoperative grade B or C proliferative vitreoretinopathy (95%CI 17.29-46.99; p=0.02). Th eyes that re-detached after the first surgery had a mean of 2.5 (95%CI 1.86-3.13) retinal tears, against a mean of 1.87 (95%CI 1.73-2.00) retinal tears of those that did not re-detach after the first surgery (p=0.02). Conclusion We found location of breaks and lens status to be independent factors not related to a lower single operation success rate, whereas the number or size of breaks and preoperative proliferative vitreoretinopathy stages B or C were independent factors related to a higher likelihood of re-detachment.

RESUMO Objetivo Avaliar condições pré-operatórias que poderiam influenciar a taxa de sucesso anatômico primário em uma coorte de pacientes com descolamento de retina regmatogênico tratada com vitrectomia primária e sem introflexão escleral. Métodos Foi realizada uma análise retrospectiva em um grupo de pacientes submetidos a vitrectomia primária pars plana com tamponamento gasoso e sem introflexão escleral por desprendimento de retina regmatogênico entre os anos 2014 e 2019, com monitoramento mínimo de 4 meses. Resultados Foram incluídos 305 olhos de 301 pacientes; 59,01% dos olhos eram fáquicos, 39,01% eram pseudofáquicos, e 1,96% era afáquico; 13,11% dos pacientes tinham vitreorretinopatia proliferativa grau B, e 3,28%, vitreorretinopatia proliferativa grau C no momento do diagnóstico, enquanto 83,61% tinham vitreorretinopatia proliferativa grau 0 ou A; 53,1% tinham rasgaduras superiores; 15,4%, rasgaduras inferiores e 31,5%, uma combinação de ambas. A taxa de sucesso primário foi obtida em 90,82% dos olhos (IC95% 87,58-94,06); 9,18% dos olhos (IC95% 5,94-12,42) se redestacaram. Em 3,27%, a causa do redescolamento foi vitreorretinopatia proliferativa e, nos 5,90% restantes, por causa de uma ruptura nova ou perdida, o vazamento de uma ruptura previamente tratada, ou uma área de descolamento periférico superficial sem ruptura detectável. Dos 181 olhos fáticos, 10,49% redestacaram-se, enquanto em mais de 126 olhos afáquicos ou pseudofáquicos 7,75% redestacaram-se (p=0,42); 16,39% dos olhos de toda a coorte tinham vitreorretinopatia proliferativa pré-operatória grau B ou C, enquanto 32,14% dos olhos redescolados tinham vitreorretinopatia proliferativa pré-operatória grau B ou C (IC95% 17,29-46,99) (p=0,02). Os olhos que se redescolaram após a primeira cirurgia tiveram média de 2,5 (IC95% 1,86-3,13) lágrimas retinianas, contra uma média de 1,87 (IC95% 1,73-2,00) lágrima retiniana daqueles que não se redestacaram após a primeira cirurgia. (p=0,02). Conclusão A localização das rasgaduras e o status da lente são fatores independentes não relacionados a uma menor taxa de sucesso da operação, enquanto o número ou o tamanho das rasgaduras e estágios vitreorretinopatia proliferativa pré-operatórios B ou C foram fatores independentes relacionados a uma maior probabilidade de redescolamento.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To evaluate a variety of techniques, and their anatomical and functional results, for the treatment of optic disc pit maculopathy (ODP-M). A secondary aim was to report on results of secondary procedures in cases of initial failure or recurrence. METHODS: Multicentre retrospective study of 95 eyes with ODP-M, treated by 25 surgeons from 12 countries. Primary outcomes were anatomical resolution of subretinal fluid (SRF), intraretinal fluid (IRF) and visual acuity (VA) at 12 months. RESULTS: Higher rates of SRF and IRF resorption were achieved in eyes treated with pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) compared to external laser with or without tamponade: 64/72 (88.9%) versus 8/14 (57.1%) for SRF (p = 0.003), and 50/59 (84.7%) versus 3/10 (30%) for IRF (p = 0.002). The addition of juxtapapillary laser or internal limiting membrane (ILM) peel during PPV did not improve SRF or IRF resolution. Pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with tamponade and PPV with tamponade plus endolaser were associated with significant visual gain. In the former group, VA improved from a mean of logMAR 0.91 (20/162), to a mean of logMAR 0.52 (20/66) at 12 months; in the latter group, VA improved from a mean of logMAR 0.82 (20/132) to a mean of logMAR 0.47 (20/59) at 12 months. Retreatments were performed in 14 eyes (15.7%), only enhancing anatomical outcomes. CONCLUSION: Vitrectomy with tamponade had better final outcomes than external laser treatment with or without gas tamponade. Laser endophotocoagulation and ILM peel provided no additional benefit. A secondary treatment resulted in anatomical but not functional improvement.

RESUMO

RESUMEN: Objetivo: Comparar la acción antiinflamatoria de prednisolona acetato y diclofenac sódico en uveitis anterior inducida experimentalmente en conejos. Metodos: se realizó un estudio controlado, randomizado y a doble ciego, seleccionando 18 conejos a los que se realizó una fotocoagulación del iris con laser de argón. Se los dividió en tres grupos, tratando a los conejos del grupo 1 con prednisolona acetato 1 por ciento, a los del grupo 2 con diclofenac sódico 0,1 por ciento, y a los del grupo 3 no se les realizó tratamiento. Se evaluaron los resultados por parámetros clínicos (biomicroscopía), y de laboratorio (estudios de humor acuoso de las concentraciones de proteinas totales, IgG, y fracción C3 del complemento). Resultados: En los examenes clínicos se observa una marcada disminución en la reacción inflamatoria en cámara anterior en las sucesivas observaciones en el grupo tratado con prednisolona. Conclusión: Ambas drogas se mostraron como eficaces agentes antiinfamatorios en este modelo experimental.
