Abstract

Purpose: To investigate the use of intravitreal bevacizumab for the treatment of subretinal (SRF) and intraretinal fluid associated with circumscribed choroidal haemangiomas (CCH).

Methods: This was a retrospective review of all patients treated with at least 3 bevacizumab injections for CCH-associated SRF between May 2020 and August 2023 in Moorfields eye hospital. Outcome measures included change in best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), change in patient reported symptoms, change in SRF and change in central subfield thickness (CSFT). Data on further management following cessation of injections was analysed.

Results: The study included 9 patients. Median BCVA was 6/19 before and 6/24 after injections (p = 0.41). CSFT decreased from a median of 466 μm to 447 μm (p = 0.11). Two thirds of (n=6) patients did not show any reduction in foveal SRF, one third (n=3) showed a partial reduction and no patients had a complete resolution of SRF. Eight patients received rescue-photodynamic therapy and one received external beam radiotherapy. BCVA changed from a median of 6/60 to a median of 6/12 after rescue treatment (p = 0.63). The median CSFT decreased significantly from 470 μm to 249 μm (p = 0.01).

Conclusions: Intravitreal bevacizumab is unlikely to be an effective treatment for exudative CCH.

玻璃体内贝伐单抗治疗脉络膜血管瘤。

目的：探讨使用玻璃体内贝伐单抗治疗与环形脉络膜血管瘤（CCH）相关的视网膜下（SRF）和视网膜内积液的方法：这是一项回顾性研究，研究对象是2020年5月至2023年8月期间在Moorfields眼科医院接受至少3次贝伐单抗注射治疗的所有CCH相关SRF患者。结果指标包括最佳矫正视力（BCVA）的变化、患者报告症状的变化、SRF的变化和中央子场厚度（CSFT）的变化。对停止注射后的进一步治疗数据进行了分析：研究包括 9 名患者。注射前 BCVA 中位数为 6/19，注射后为 6/24（p = 0.41）。CSFT 从中位数 466 μm 下降到 447 μm（p = 0.11）。三分之二（6 人）的患者眼窝 SRF 没有减少，三分之一（3 人）部分减少，没有患者 SRF 完全消失。八名患者接受了光动力治疗，一名患者接受了体外放射治疗。抢救治疗后，BCVA 的中位数从 6/60 变为 6/12（p = 0.63）。中位 CSFT 从 470 μm 显著降至 249 μm（p = 0.01）：结论：玻璃体内贝伐单抗不太可能成为治疗渗出性 CCH 的有效方法。
