Abstract
Purpose
When severe retinal and corneal injury occur together, a temporary keratoprosthesis (TKP) is often a last resort to allow posterior segment visualization to enable vitreoretinal surgery, followed by a penetrating keratoplasty (PKP) which can restore corneal clarity in a single operation. We aimed to assess visual outcomes following combined PKP and vitreoretinal surgery with the use of a TKP for cases of ocular trauma.
Design
A systematic literature review was performed following PRISMA guidelines (PROSPERO registration number: CRD42023423518).
Methods
CENTRAL, MEDLINE, Embase, ISRCTN registry, and ClinicalTrials.gov were searched from inception to 27 April 2023. Randomized and nonrandomized studies assessing visual outcomes after combined vitreoretinal surgery and PKP with the use of a TKP after ocular trauma were eligible for inclusion. Outcomes included change in best corrected visual acuity, corneal graft survival and retinal reattachment at final follow up. Proportional meta-analysis was used to estimate the overall rate of the primary outcomes. Risk of bias for nonrandomized studies was assessed using the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) critical appraisal checklist for case series.
Results
A total of 19 studies met inclusion criteria reporting a total of 352 eyes. All studies were retrospective and nonrandomized with follow up times ranging from 6 to 91 months, with at least 79% of outcomes reported after 6 months. After combined surgery the rate of corneal graft survival was 52% (95% CI 0.41-0.62; I2 60%) successful retinal attachment was 79% (95% CI 0.73-0.84; I2 0%). and improved visual acuity, when compared to no change or decrease in visual acuity, was 45% (95% CI 0.32-0.59; I2 66%).
Conclusion
Patients with severe injury affecting the anterior and posterior segments have very limited treatment options. This systematic review found that when combined vitreoretinal surgery and PKP with a TKP are performed, approximately half of corneal grafts survive, anatomically successful retinal reattachment is likely, and a similar proportion of patients benefit in terms of improved visual acuity, compared to their preoperative function. This systematic review of the available literature may help inform surgeons of the benefits of using a TKP for cases of ocular trauma.
期刊介绍:
The American Journal of Ophthalmology is a peer-reviewed, scientific publication that welcomes the submission of original, previously unpublished manuscripts directed to ophthalmologists and visual science specialists describing clinical investigations, clinical observations, and clinically relevant laboratory investigations. Published monthly since 1884, the full text of the American Journal of Ophthalmology and supplementary material are also presented online at www.AJO.com and on ScienceDirect.
The American Journal of Ophthalmology publishes Full-Length Articles, Perspectives, Editorials, Correspondences, Books Reports and Announcements. Brief Reports and Case Reports are no longer published. We recommend submitting Brief Reports and Case Reports to our companion publication, the American Journal of Ophthalmology Case Reports.
Manuscripts are accepted with the understanding that they have not been and will not be published elsewhere substantially in any format, and that there are no ethical problems with the content or data collection. Authors may be requested to produce the data upon which the manuscript is based and to answer expeditiously any questions about the manuscript or its authors.
