In-depth analysis of risk factors for pseudophakic retinal detachments and retinal breaks.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To provide a detailed analysis of risk factors for pseudophakic retinal detachments (PRD) and pseudophakic retinal breaks (PRB).

Materials and methods

We reviewed the medical records of cataract surgeries between 1996 and 2017 at a tertiary care hospital in Austria. A Cox proportional-hazard regression model was used to analyse risk factors for PRD and PRB.

Results

Sixty-five thousand six hundred and sixty-two eyes (45 043 patients) underwent phacoemulsification, and 393 eyes (cumulative incidence 0.6%) were diagnosed with PRD (327 eyes) or PRB (66 eyes) during the follow-up (median 7.1 years, range 0-21). Calculation of adjusted hazard ratios (HR) revealed a hierarchy of risk factors for either event including (from the highest to the lowest risk) posterior capsular rupture (PCR), patient age <65 years (compared with the age group >75 years), male gender and high myopia. Diabetes mellitus was associated with a lower risk. PCR was the strongest risk factor for PRD both in patients with and without perioperative vitrectomy (i.e. vitreous loss), but time to PRD was significantly reduced only following PCR with vitrectomy.

Conclusions

Posterior capsular rupture, young patient age, male gender and high myopia were risk factors for PRD, but diabetes mellitus was associated with a lower risk. PCR had the strongest association with PRD, regardless of the need for perioperative vitrectomy due to vitreous loss. Time to PRD was reduced in patients with PCR and vitrectomy compared with PCR without the need for vitrectomy or uneventful surgery.

Vitrectomy without prone positioning for rhegmatogenous retinal detachments in eyes with inferior retinal breaks.

Project description:PurposeTo compare the anatomic and functional outcomes of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) for treating rhegmatogenous retinal detachments (RRDs) between two groups with and without postoperative prone positioning.MethodsThis retrospective cohort study included 142 eyes of 142 patients with a primary RRD. All patients underwent PPV with 20% sulfur hexafluoride gas tamponade and were divided into two groups: the groups that did and did not maintain a prone position postoperatively. All patients were followed for more than 3 months. The main outcome measures were the best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), retinal reattachment rate, and postoperative complications.ResultsSixty-five eyes were included in the prone position group and 77 eyes in the group without prone positioning; the respective initial reattachment rates were 83.1% and 96.1%, a difference that reach significance (p = 0.011). In the eyes with inferior breaks, the initial reattachment rate was 94.7% (18 eyes) without prone positioning, which was significantly (p = 0.036) better than the 60% (6 eyes) initial reattachment rate in the group with prone positioning. In the eyes without inferior breaks, there was no significant difference in the initial reattachment rates between the two groups. The BCVAs at the 3-month postoperative visit did not differ significantly between the two groups. An epiretinal membrane (ERM) was observed postoperatively in 10 (13.0%) eyes in the group without prone positioning; no ERMs were seen postoperatively in eyes in which the internal limiting membrane (ILM) was peeled during PPV.ConclusionsPPV without postoperative prone positioning is associated with a higher reattachment rate in eyes with a RRD, especially those with inferior retinal breaks. PPV with postoperative supine and lateral positioning might be beneficial to manage RRDs associated with inferior retinal breaks if ILM peeling is performed intraoperatively.

Iatrogenic retinal breaks and postoperative retinal detachments in microincision vitrectomy surgery compared with conventional 20-gauge vitrectomy: a meta-analysis.

Project description:PurposeTo assess the incidence of iatrogenic retinal breaks (IRBs) and postoperative retinal detachments (RDs) in microincision vitrectomy surgery (MIVS) compared with 20-gauge (20?G) vitrectomy.MethodsA comprehensive literature search was performed to find relevant studies and a meta-analysis of the IRBs and postoperative RDs rates after 20?G vitrectomy versus MIVS was conducted.ResultsThirty-two studies were selected, including 14,373 eyes (6932 eyes in the 20?G group, 7441 eyes in the MIVS group). The meta-analysis demonstrated that the incidence of IRBs was significantly higher in 20?G vitrectomy vs. MIVS (OR?=?2.22, 95% CI, 1.93-2.57, P?<?0.00001) and in a subanalysis vs. 23?G MIVS (OR?=?2.19, 95% CI, 1.87-2.56, P?<?0.00001) and vs. 25?G MIVS (OR?=?2.27, 95% CI, 1.62-3.18, P?<?0.00001). Similar result was obtained in a subanalysis for macular surgery (OR?=?2.44, 95% CI, 1.99-2.99, P?<?0.00001), and also for sclerotomy-related IRBs (OR?=?3.73, 95% CI, 2.55-5.44, P?<?0.00001), but not for surgically induced posterior vitreous detachment-related IRBs (OR?=?1.59, 95% CI, 0.89-2.84, P?=?0.12). The incidence of postoperative RDs in 20?G vitrectomy was significantly higher compared to MIVS (OR?=?1.72, 95% CI, 1.21-2.46, P?=?0.003) and in a subanalysis vs. 23?G MIVS (OR?=?2.45, 95% CI, 1.50-4.00, P?=?0.0003), but not for 25?G MIVS (OR?=?1.01, 95% CI, 0.63-1.64, P?=?0.96). Similar result was obtained in a subanalysis for macular surgery (OR?=?1.89, 95% CI, 1.26-2.85, P?=?0.002).ConclusionThis meta-analysis demonstrated that MIVS is associated with a lower risk of IRBs and postoperative RDs compared to 20?G vitrectomy.

Patching retinal breaks with Seprafilm for treating retinal detachments in humans: 9 years of follow-up.

Project description:PurposeTo describe the long-term surgical outcomes of four patients treated for retinal detachment using Seprafilm as a novel technique.MethodsRetinal breaks in four eyes were covered with Seprafilm using a transvitreal approach after cataract surgery, pars plana vitrectomy, fluid-air exchange, and laser photocoagulation. Neither long-standing gas nor silicone oil was used. The patients were not instructed to maintain a specific head positioning postoperatively.ResultsSuccessful retinal reattachment was achieved with a single surgery in all four eyes, and none developed proliferative vitreoretinopathy. The mean best-corrected visual acuity preoperatively and 9 years postoperatively were 20/97 and 20/33, respectively. The intraocular pressure increased several days postoperatively that lasted no longer than 2 weeks. Visual field defects either in the inferonasal or inferotemporal quadrant were detected postoperatively. The mean electroretinogram a- and b-wave amplitude ratios of the operated eyes to the fellow eyes were 0.68 and 0.64 preoperatively and 0.87 and 0.92 postoperatively, respectively. The mean corneal endothelial cell density was 2365 cells/mm2 preoperatively and 2592 cells/mm2 postoperatively.ConclusionCovering retinal breaks with Seprafilm may promote retinal reattachment without gas tamponade and postoperative head positioning. The visual outcomes 9 years postoperatively showed no apparent adverse effects of intraocular application of Seprafilm.

Glue-assisted retinopexy for rhegmatogenous retinal detachments (GuARD): A novel surgical technique for closing retinal breaks.

Project description:PurposeThis study describes a novel surgical technique of fibrin glue-assisted retinopexy for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (GuARD) without oil or gas tamponade after pars plana vitrectomy (PPV).MethodsThis pilot clinical trial included five eyes of five patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachments (RD). A complete PPV was done in all cases followed by fluid-air exchange, laser photocoagulation around the break/s, and application of 0.1-0.2 mL of fibrin glue. No air, long-acting gas or silicone oil was used subsequently. No specific postoperative positioning was prescribed. The primary outcome measure was efficacy of the procedure defined as successful anatomical retinal reattachment. Secondary outcome measures were postoperative improvement in best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and complications.ResultsThe median age of patients was 55 (range: 36-61 years) years and median duration of symptoms was 15 (range: 7-60) days. All eyes were pseudophakic, four eyes had inferior and one eye had total RD. Successful retinal reattachment was achieved in all (100%) cases and was maintained at the end of 3-8 months of follow-up. The median BCVA improved from 20/100 preoperatively to 20/80 at 1-week and 20/50 at 1-month postoperatively. None of the eyes had any postoperative complications such as elevated intraocular pressures or unexpected inflammation.ConclusionThe findings of this study suggest that GuARD is a promising technique for treatment of rhegmatogenous RD that may allow early visual recovery while avoiding the problems of gas or oil tamponade and obviating the need of postoperative positioning.

Pseudophakic retinal detachment in young-aged patients.

Project description:ObjectiveTo investigate the incidence and risk factors for retinal detachment (RD) after cataract surgery or refractive lens exchange (RLE) in patients aged below 61 years.MethodsRetrospective medical chart review of 7,886 patients (13,925 eyes) who underwent cataract surgery or RLE. Patients aged below 61 years were selected. Age, gender, axial length, follow-up times, and the occurrence of RD were recorded. Additional characteristics documented for RD cases were: history of RD, preexisting retinal findings, laser capsulotomy, status of macula at RD, date and details of RD.ResultsFrom a total of 421 patients (677 eyes) aged below 61 years 24 cases of RD were identified, resulting in an overall cumulative incidence per eyes of 3.55%. The mean follow-up time was 45 ± 32.8 months. Ninety-two % of all RDs occurred within 3.6 years from surgery. Axial length had a significant effect on the risk of RD after cataract/ RLE surgery (HR = 1.42, P = 0.0001, 95% CI 1.19-1.69). The highest incidence of RD occurred in the subgroup of 25 to 28.9 mm axial length (10.2%). With an increase in age of ten years, the hazard of postoperative RD was not significantly increased by a factor of 1.50 (P = 0.286, 95% CI 0.71-3.15). The highest incidence of RD occurred in patients aged 50-54 years (5.39%). Compared to females, males had an almost twofold not significant risk of postoperative RD (HR = 1.96, P = 0.123, 95% CI 0.83-4.63). None of the RD cases had a history of RD.ConclusionsAxial length is a significant risk factor for pseudophakic RD. The need for cataract surgery or RLE should be carefully considered in patients with axial lengths between 25 and 29 mm, aged 50-54 years, in males, and in case of preexisting retinal findings.

Ethnic variation in rhegmatogenous retinal detachments.

Project description:We aimed to investigate the clinical variation of rhegmatogenous retinal detachments (RD) in patients of different ethnicities.Patients presenting with a primary RD from two ethnic groups were recruited from our tertiary referral hospital between August 2010 and December 2012. Patients who self-reported their ethnic origin either as European Caucasian (EC) or South Asian (SA) were included. Exclusion criteria included trauma, previous vitreoretinal procedures, age under 18 years, complicated cataract surgery and the presence of syndromes known to be associated with a high prevalence of RD. Detailed phenotypic data were collected. Descriptive and comparative statistical analyses were undertaken.1269 Patients were recruited. 1173 (92.4%) were EC. Mean age of onset was 58.3 years (EC) and 54.5 years (SA) (P=0.006). 75.3% EC and 58.4% SA were phakic (P<0.001). 12.8% of EC and 19.4% of SA patients had a lattice retinal degeneration in the affected eye (P=0.003). Refractive myopia was greater in SA patients (mean: -6.1DS) than EC (-4.2DS) (P=0.032). Additionally, SA patients had a greater mean axial length (25.65 mm) than EC (25.06 mm) (P=0.014). No differences were demonstrated in laterality, family history, type of retinal break or macular status.SA patients present with RD at an earlier age and have a more severe phenotype than ECs. Future management strategies for RD may need to reflect these differences.

Paraxial analysis of the depth of field of a pseudophakic eye with accommodating intraocular lens.

Project description:PurposeTo investigate the depth of field of pseudophakic eye implanted with translating optics accommodating intraocular lenses (AIOLs).MethodsTheoretical analyses using paraxial optics equations were used. The crystalline lens in the Navarro eye model was replaced with an AIOL modeled as a thin-lens system with either a single lens element (1E-AIOL) or two element (2E-AIOL). To quantify the depth of field, a reference limit for retinal blur circle diameter was adopted from typical values of depth of field of the normal eye. Effect of various factors including AIOL type, lens element power, implant position, and pseudophakic accommodation on depth of field were analyzed.ResultsDepth of field increased with more posterior positioning of the AIOL and decreased with pseudophakic accommodation by translation of optics. However, the changes did not exceed 0.02 D over the range of factors tested. Effective depth of field, defined as the magnification adjusted depth of field, is relatively independent of the implant position and power combination of AIOL. Effects of varying design factors on the depth of field of AIOL are too small to be clinically observable.ConclusionsAlthough depth of field extends the range of near vision with AIOL, varying design and surgical factors such as depth of implantation and optical power of lens element(s) within clinically practical limits modifies depth of field by an insignificant amount. In the practical sense, attempting to enhance the depth of field of AIOL by varying design factors such as the position of implantation would be unrewarding.

RUPTURED RETINAL ARTERIAL MACROANEURYSMS ASSOCIATED WITH HEMORRHAGIC BACILLARY LAYER DETACHMENTS.

Project description:Background/purposeBacillary layer detachments (BALAD) are a recently recognized form of retinal detachment involving a splitting of photoreceptors at the inner segment myoid zone, with separation of the external limiting membrane and ellipsoid zone on optical coherence tomography (OCT). A growing number of disease processes are recognized to cause BALAD, and here we present three of the first cases of hemorrhagic retinal artery macroaneurysms that resulted in BALAD.MethodsA retrospective review of three patients who presented for acute, painless, monocular vision loss was performed. Multimodal imaging including fundus photography and OCT are included in this analysis.ResultsThree elderly female patients, all with a history of hypertension, presented with ruptured macroaneurysms involving the macula. All three patients had evidence of BALAD on OCT. Various management strategies were used.ConclusionHemorrhagic retinal arterial macroaneurysms can be associated with BALAD, observed best on OCT. This is most likely secondary to the rapid accumulation of intraretinal fluid during the hemorrhage, which leads to an avulsion at the inner segment myoid zone-a site of inherent structural weakness in the photoreceptors. Visual recovery may be improved in instances of hemorrhagic macroaneurysms associated with BALAD, similar to other disease entities where BALAD occurs, although further research is needed.

Risk factors for iatrogenic retinal breaks induced by separation of posterior hyaloid face during 23-gauge pars plana vitrectomy.

Project description:To describe the incidence and features of intraoperative retinal breaks caused by induction of posterior hyaloid face (PHF) separation during 23-gauge pars plana vitrectomy (PPV).A prospective, consecutive, single surgeon, observational study of patients undergoing 23-gauge transconjunctival sutureless vitrectomy for macular pathology or floaters, was carried out between 2009 and 2011 at Calderdale Royal Hospital, UK. PHF separations were categorised as either suction induced or requiring membrane blue (DORC Limited) with suction (adherent). The outcome measure was dichotomised into retinal break or tear and no retinal break or tear. Forced entry and parsimonious multiple logistic regression analyses were conducted, using statistical software, to test for significance of association of the set of recorded factors and covariates with the dichotomised outcome measure.Data were collected and analysed from 137 patients. The incidence of iatrogenic retinal breaks associated with PHF separation during 23-gauge PPV was 18.2%. Under both forced entry and parsimonious multiple logistic regression models, the odds of a retinal break or tear reduce by about 3-4% for each increasing year of age. Findings also showed some substantive association in the forced entry model, with the odds of a retinal break or tear for adherent cases being around 3.8 times those for suction-only cases.Mechanical detachment of the PHF represents an important risk factor in the formation of retinal breaks. Particular care should be taken to examine intraoperatively for iatrogenic breaks in order to prevent missed breaks and subsequent rhegmatogenous retinal detachments.
