BMC Ophthalmol 2023; 23:467. [PMID: 37978355 PMCID: PMC10655441 DOI: 10.1186/s12886-023-03187-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2022] [Accepted: 10/26/2023] [Indexed: 11/19/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND To explore the predictive value of Ellipsoid Zone (EZ) -related angle parameters for the outcome of primary macular hole surgery. METHODS This was a retrospective study. Patients diagnosed with large macular hole (MH) (minimum diameter > 500 μm) between 2018 and 2021 were enrolled. All patients underwent 25-gauge pars plana vitrectomy, internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling and air tamponade. Spectral-domain OCT (SD-OCT) and best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) were measured in preoperative and 2-week post-operative. Classic and angle related parameters were measured via ImageJ. Angle regularity (AR) were defined as the standard deviation of the angle parameters in vertical and horizontal direction. RESULTS Seventy-six eyes were included for analysis; 24 eyes showed an unclosed macular hole at the 2-week postoperative and 52 eyes showed a closed hole. Preoperatively, MLD (P < 0.001), BD (P = 0.009) and diameter of EZ/ELM disruption (P = 0.002 and 0.025) in patients failed to close the hole after primary surgery were significantly larger than those succeeded. EZ-MH (P = 0.018), EZ-NFL (P = 0.006), EZ-GCL (P = 0.004), EZ-INL (P = 0.002), EZ-OPL (P = 0.009) and EZ-ONL (P = 0.011) angles were smaller in patients with unclosed hole. AR of the EZ-NFL (P = 0.009), EZ-GCL (P = 0.009), EZ-OPL (P = 0.023), EZ-ONL (P = 0.048) and Basal-NFL (P = 0.030) angles among the unclosed patients were significantly larger than those of the closed group. EZ-NFL (P = 0.015), EZ-GCL (P = 0.004), EZ-INL (P < 0.001), EZ-OPL (P < 0.001), EZ-ONL (P < 0.001), Basal (P = 0.023) and Basal-NFL (P < 0.001) angles of hole-unclosed patients enlarged significantly after the surgery. CONCLUSIONS Patients with large macular holes and an increased EZ-related angle and angle AR are more likely to experience unsuccessful outcomes following primary MH surgery. Therefore, EZ-related angles hold potential as valuable parameters for predicting the surgical outcome.

Yao Y, Yan H, Qu J, Dong C, Liang J, Yin H, Ren C, Jin E, Zhao M. Vitrectomy with sulfur hexafluoride versus air tamponade for idiopathic macular hole: a retrospective study. BMC Ophthalmol 2023; 23:331. [PMID: 37474921 PMCID: PMC10357688 DOI: 10.1186/s12886-023-03049-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/10/2023] [Accepted: 06/17/2023] [Indexed: 07/22/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND To evaluate the effect of room air and sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) gas in idiopathic macular hole(MH)surgery. METHODS Retrospective, interventional, and comparative study. 238 eyes with the idiopathic macular hole that underwent pars plana vitrectomy, internal limiting membrane peeling, fluid-air exchange, and 20% SF6 (SF6 group:125 eyes) or room air tamponade (air group: 113 eyes) were reviewed. The primary outcome measure was the closure rate of primary surgery. RESULTS The baseline characteristics of the SF6 group and air group were comparable except for the hole size (479.90 ± 204.48 vs. 429.38 ± 174.63 μm, P = 0.043). The anatomical closure rate was 92.8% (116 / 125) with the SF6 group and 76.1% (86 / 113) with the air group (P < 0.001). A cut-off value of MH size to predict primary anatomical closure was 520 μm, which is based on the lower limit of 95% confidential interval of the MH size among the unclosed patients in the air group. There was no significant difference in anatomical closure rates between SF6 and air group (98.7% vs. 91.9%, P = 0.051) for MH ≤ 520 μm, whereas a significantly lower anatomical closure rate was shown in the air group than SF6 group (46.2% vs. 84.0%, P < 0.001) for MH > 520 μm. CONCLUSION SF6 exhibited more effectiveness than air to achieve a good anatomical outcome for its longer tamponade when MH > 520 μm.

Comparative Study of Conventional Inverted ILM Flap Covering and ILM Flap Filling Technique in Idiopathic Macular Hole Treatment: A Meta-Analysis and Systematic Review. J Ophthalmol 2022; 2022:4922616. [PMID: 36237559 PMCID: PMC9553370 DOI: 10.1155/2022/4922616] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2022] [Accepted: 08/25/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective This meta-analysis was performed to evaluate the anatomical efficacy and functional improvement of the conventional inverted internal limiting membrane (ILM), flap covering technique, and ILM flap filling technique for patients with idiopathic macular hole (MH). Methods Literature from Pubmed, Embase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and Web of Science were comprehensively retrieved. The primary outcomes included the MH closure rate and postoperative best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA). The secondary outcomes were the proportion of external limiting membrane (ELM) and ellipsoid zone (EZ) defect recovery. Pooled odds ratios (ORs), weighted mean differences (WMDs), and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using STATA 17.0 software. Results 7 studies that contained 139 eyes in the inverted ILM flap covering group and 121 eyes in the ILM flap filling group were selected. Pooled data suggested that the surgical treatment resulted in an overall MH closure rate of up to 97.12% (135/139 eyes) in the inverted ILM flap covering group and 99.17% (120/121 eyes) in the filling group, with no significant difference between the 2 groups (OR = 1.98, 95% CI: 0.55 to 7.09, and P=0.29). Similarly, the 2 techniques demonstrated equal effectiveness on the anatomical closure in MH with the average diameter smaller than 650 μm (OR = 2.17, 95% CI: 0.48 to 9.77, and P=0.31) and larger than 650 μm (OR = 1.58, 95% CI: 0.14 to 17.37, and P=0.71). However, compared with the filling technique, the inverted ILM flap covering technique was superior in postoperative BCVA (WMD = 0.11, 95% CI: 0.04 to 0.18, and P=0.0017) and presented a significantly higher proportion of reconstitution of ELM (OR = 0.02, 95% CI: 0.00 to 0.08, and P < 0.0001) and EZ (OR = 0.11, 95% CI: 0.04 to 0.32, and P=0.0001). Conclusion The inverted ILM flap covering technique was associated with the superior reconstitution of outer layers of the retina, including ELM and EZ, and more improvement in postoperative BCVA than the ILM flap filling technique.
