Abstract
Purpose: To investigate the association between preretinal hyperreflective dots (PHD) with the occurrence of epiretinal membrane (ERM) following pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD).
Methods: This retrospective study included patients who underwent PPV for RRD at Ophtalmopôle de Paris. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) scans were acquired at 1, 3, 6 months and 1 year post-surgery. PHD were defined as point-like hyperreflective deposits on the inner retinal surface on the first postoperative OCT. The association between PHD and ERM was evaluated using logistic regression and Kaplan-Meier analysis.
Results: Of 894 patients who underwent vitrectomy for RRD, 417 were included in the analysis. Univariate analysis showed significant associations between ERM occurrence and macula-off RRD (P=0.043), number of retinal tears (P=0.002), use of cryopexy (P=0.012), C2F6 tamponade (P=0.045), and presence of PHD on OCT (P<0.001). On multivariate analysis, presence of PHD (P<0.001) and use of cryopexy (P=0.013) were significant predictors of ERM. Kaplan-Meier analysis indicated that the cumulative probability of developing an ERM at 6 months was 4% in patients without PHD and 26% in patients with PHD (P<0.001).
Conclusion: PHD are associated with the occurrence of ERM following vitrectomy for RRD.
目的:探讨孔源性视网膜脱离(RRD)玻璃体切除术(PPV)后视网膜前高反射点(PHD)与视网膜前膜(ERM)发生的关系。方法:这项回顾性研究纳入了在Ophtalmopôle de Paris接受PPV治疗RRD的患者。分别于术后1、3、6个月和1年进行光学相干断层扫描(OCT)。dr被定义为术后第一次oct视网膜内表面的点状高反射性沉积物。采用logistic回归和Kaplan-Meier分析评估PHD与ERM之间的关系。结果:在894例因RRD行玻璃体切除术的患者中,有417例纳入分析。单因素分析显示,ERM的发生与黄斑脱落的RRD (P=0.043)、视网膜撕裂数(P=0.002)、冷冻冷冻(P=0.012)、C2F6填塞(P=0.045)、OCT上是否有PHD存在显著相关(P)。结论:PHD与RRD玻璃体切除术后ERM的发生有关。
