Thylefors J, Sheikh R, Jakobsson G. The effect of axial length on pseudophakic retinal detachment. Acta Ophthalmol 2024. [PMID: 38587993 DOI: 10.1111/aos.16691] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2023] [Accepted: 03/29/2024] [Indexed: 04/10/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of the study was to analyse the surgical management and outcome regarding axial length in the population affected by pseudophakic retinal detachment (PRD) 2015-2020. METHOD The patients included were from an observational cohort study of patients undergoing cataract surgery in the region of Skåne during 2015-2017. Data were retrieved from the Swedish National Cataract Register and cross-referenced with cases of PRD in the same region from 2015 to 2020. The surgical method used and findings at follow-up were recorded. The patients were stratified according to axial length (AL) to <25 mm, 25 ≤ n < 26.5 mm and ≥26.5 mm. The main outcome was primary success with one surgery apart from silicone oil removal. The secondary outcome was postoperative visual acuity. RESULTS In the whole study group of 58 624 cases, complete follow-up data were available for 288 eyes. The median follow-up time was 324 days, and primary operation was successful in 82.9% of these cases. The median visual acuity was 0.31 (LogMAR). In the stratification those with AL < 25 mm had a primary success of 75.8%, AL 25 ≤ n < 26.5 mm of 87.9% and ≥26.5 mm of 95.8%. CONCLUSIONS The primary anatomical success was 82.9% in the whole group of PRD but with stratification they had an increasing number of primary success with longer AL.

Abstract
PURPOSE To describe the epidemiology, indications and surgical results of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) in patients over 85 years of age. METHODS A retrospective cohort study was performed including all consecutive patients aged 85 years or older who underwent PPV between September 2018 and March 2022 in a single hospital in Madrid, Spain. Data on diagnosis, comorbidities, surgical indication, surgical details, surgical complications and surgical outcomes were collected from medical records. RESULTS A total of 124 eyes of 119 patients (56 males, 47.1%) underwent PPV. Median age was 87 years (range 85-96). The most common surgical indications were complications of cataract surgery in 34 patients (28.6%), macular epiretinal membrane in 32 (26.9%), and rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) in 12 (10.1%). Mean preoperative best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 13.33 ± 42.34 ETDRS letters and improved to 40.05 ± 41.04 letters at 3 months (p < 0.001). BCVA had improved in 68.82% of patients at 3 months. Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD; p < 0.001), RRD (p = 0.003), ocular trauma (p = 0.001) and age-related macular degeneration (AMD; p = 0.002) showed worse BCVA at 3 months from surgery. Patients with better preoperative BCVA (p < 0.001), and those who underwent 25G PPV (p = 0.041) showed better visual outcomes. CONCLUSIONS PPV is an effective technique for improving visual acuity in patients aged 85 years and older with vitreoretinal diseases. Visual outcomes were better when patients had a better preoperative visual acuity and underwent 25G PPV. Patients with a previous diagnosis of AMD or CKD, and those undergoing surgery for ocular trauma or RRD had worse visual outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE To screen for the differentially expressed genes in experimental retinal detachment rats, and to explore the expression of S100 calcium-binding protein A9 and Toll-like receptor 4 in the vitreous of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment patients. METHODS Three rats of experimental retinal detachment and three normal rats were enrolled in the study. Transcriptomics (RNAseq) sequencing technology was used to screen differentially expressed genes in the retinas of the experimental retinal detachment group and the normal group. The selected differentially expressed genes for gene ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes functional enrichment analysis were performed. In addition, the vitreous of 15 patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment and six patients with the control group were collected. The expressions of S100 calcium-binding protein A9 and Toll-like receptor 4 were detected by Elisa, and the differences in expression levels were analyzed statistically. RESULTS A total of 198 differentially expressed genes were screened by RNAseq sequencing, including 118 upregulated genes and 80 downregulated genes. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes analysis confirmed that the most enriched pathway was the mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathway. Compared to the normal group, the expressions of suppressor of cytokine signaling-3, Storkhead box-2, S100 calcium-binding protein A9, Spi-1 proto-oncogene, phosphodiesterase 1B, and kinesin-light chain 1 mRNA in the retinas of the experimental retinal detachment rats were up-regulated, and the expressions of Max interacting protein 1 and the voltage-gated sodium 1 were down-regulated. Compared to the control group, the expressions of S100 calcium-binding protein A9 and Toll-like receptor 4 were upregulated by Elisa in the vitreous humor of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment patients with a statistically significant difference (p all <.05). CONCLUSION The differentially expressed genes of experimental retinal detachment rats were suppressor of cytokine signaling-3, Storkhead box-2, S100 calcium-binding protein A9, Spi-1 proto-oncogene, phosphodiesterase 1B, kinesin-light chain 1, Max interacting protein 1, voltage-gated sodium 1, etc. The differences of S100 calcium-binding protein A9 and Toll-like receptor 4 expressions between the rhegmatogenous retinal detachment patients and the control group were statistically significant, indicating that they may play a potential role in the inflammatory process of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.

A Short-Time Real-World Study of Two Perfluoropropane Tamponade Methods in Pars Plana Vitrectomy for Retinal Detachment. Ophthalmic Res 2023; 66:1300-1307. [PMID: 37812921 PMCID: PMC10627491 DOI: 10.1159/000534208] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/25/2023] [Accepted: 09/18/2023] [Indexed: 10/11/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION This real-world study evaluated the efficacy, safety, and operative parameters of two perfluoropropane (C3F8) tamponade methods combined with pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) for retinal detachment (RD). METHODS A retrospective study of 132 patients (132 eyes) with RD (pure C3F8 in 38 eyes, mixed C3F8 in 94 eyes). All eyes underwent PPV with C3F8 tamponade and were followed up for at least 3 months. Retinal reattachment rate, time of gas configuration and injection, C3F8 dosage, intraocular pressure (IOP), best corrected visual acuity, postoperative ocular inflammation, and patients' complaints were evaluated. RESULTS The single-surgery retinal reattachment rates of the pure C3F8 group and mixed C3F8 group were 97.4% and 96.8%, respectively, with no significant difference (p = 1.00). The final retinal reattachment rates of the two groups were 100% and 97.2%, respectively, with no significant difference (p = 1.00). The gas configuration time, gas injection time, and C3F8 dosage were significantly less in the pure C3F8 group (all p < 0.001). Time, but not group, was the influencing factor of postoperative IOP changes in the two groups (p < 0.001, p = 0.547, respectively). Compared with the baseline, the IOP estimates of the pure C3F8 group showed a significant increase immediately after surgery (p < 0.001), and the mixed C3F8 group showed a significant increase immediately and 1-2 days after surgery (all p < 0.05). There was no statistical difference in ocular inflammation (p = 0.339) and patients' complaints of discomfort (p = 0.175) between the two groups. CONCLUSION Both the two methods of C3F8 tamponade combined with PPV in RD patients showed good efficacy and safety, but the clinical operation of pure C3F8 tamponade was more convenient and eco-friendly.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To assess the effect of sex and laterality on clinical features of primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD). METHOD This study is a retrospective analysis of data prospectively collected. We extracted data from two online datasets over a 7-year period of patients older than 16 years who had undergone surgery for primary RRD. Data on baseline characteristics were analyzed to compare males versus females, and right versus left eyes. RESULTS Of 8133 eyes analyzed, 4342 (53.4%) were right. The overall male predominance (63.7%) was more marked in the age range 50-69 years. Men were more commonly pseudophakic and presented more frequently with baseline posterior vitreous detachment (PVD). Female sex was significantly associated with baseline myopia, retinal holes as causative retinal break, and isolated inferior RD. Men had more frequent foveal involvement, greater RRD extent, greater numbers and larger sized retinal tears including dialysis and giant retinal tears. Regarding laterality, foveal involvement, larger retinal breaks, isolated temporal RD and temporal retinal breaks were more common in right eyes, whereas left eyes were more myopic at baseline and presented more frequently with isolated nasal RD and nasal retinal breaks. CONCLUSIONS This study confirmed the predominance of male sex and right laterality in RRD. Sex and laterality were associated with multiple presenting features of RRD including extent, break distribution, number, size and type, as well as RD distribution.

Abstract
There have been marked increases in the numbers of patients with retinal detachments at individual centres in recent years and this is supported by the subjective impression of many experts. We therefore surveyed the literature on changes in the incidence of retinal detachments worldwide. This revealed quite significant methodological differences between the studies, so that it was difficult to achieve a conclusive comparison of the development of the incidence of retinal detachment. Despite these limitations, all data from recent studies suggest an increase in the number of retinal detachments. The incidence of retinal detachment in the western world currently seems to be more than 20 cases per 100,000 person-years, which is significantly higher than described in earlier decades. It can be assumed that an increase in the number of individuals with myopia, a demographic increase in patients of the typical age group for retinal detachment and an increasing number of cataract surgeries, especially in younger patients, are responsible for the rising incidence of retinal detachment.

Pars Plana Vitrectomy Alone or Combined with Phacoemulsification to Treat Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment: A Systematic Review of the Recent Literature. J Clin Med 2023; 12:5021.

Abstract
Pars plana vitrectomy is today a common first-line procedure for treatment of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD). Removal or preservation of the natural lens at the time of vitrectomy is associated with both advantages and disadvantages. The combination of cataract extraction (i.e., phacoemulsification) with pars plana vitrectomy (PPVc) enhances visualization of the peripheral retina and the surgical management of the vitreous base. However, PPVc prolongs the surgical time and is associated with iatrogenic loss of the accommodation function in younger patients, possible postoperative anisometropia, and unexpected refractive results. Performance of pars plana vitrectomy alone (PPVa) requires good technical skills to minimize the risk of lens damage, and quickens cataract development. We retrieved all recent papers that directly compared PPVc and PPVa using parameters that we consider essential when choosing between the two procedures (the success rate of anatomical RRD repair, postoperative refractive error, intra- and postoperative complications, and costs). PPVa and PPVc were generally comparable in terms of RRD anatomical repair. PPVc was associated with fewer intraoperative, but more postoperative, complications. Macula-off RRD PPVc treatment was often associated with undesirable myopic refractive error. PPVa followed by phacoemulsification was the most expensive procedure.

Abstract
AIMS The present study aimed to analyze the incidence and characteristics of all types of retinal detachment (RD) in the overall population of Polish adults during 2013-2019. METHODS Data from all levels of healthcare services at public and private institutions recorded in the National Health Fund (NHF) database were evaluated. International Classification of Diseases codes (ICD-9 and ICD-10) and unique NHF codes were used to identify RD patients and RD treatment procedures. RESULTS In the period 2013-2019, 71,073 patients with RD were newly diagnosed in Poland. The average incidence was 32.64/100,000 person-years (95% CI: 31.28-33.99) and it increased with the age of patients, with the highest rate in the group of patients ≥70 years of age. The overall incidences of rhegmatogenous RD, traction RD, serous RD, other RD and unspecified RD were 13.72/100,000, 2.03/100,000, 1.02/100,000, 7.90/100,000 and 7.97/100,000 person-years, respectively. The most common surgical treatment for RD in Poland was PPV performed on average in 49.80% of RD patients. The risk factor analyses showed that rhegmatogenous RD was significantly associated with age (OR 1.026), male sex (OR 2.320), rural residence (OR 0.958), DM type 2 (OR 1.603), any DR (OR 2.109), myopia (OR 2.997), glaucoma (OR 2.169) and uveitis (OR 2.561). Traction RD was also significantly associated with age (OR 1.013) and male sex (OR 2.785) as well as with any DR (OR 2.493), myopia (OR 2.255), glaucoma (OR 1.904) and uveitis (OR 4.214). Serous RD was significantly associated with all analyzed risk factors except DM type 2. CONCLUSIONS The total incidence of retinal detachment in Poland was higher than found in previously published studies. Our study demonstrated that diabetes type 1 and diabetic retinopathy are risk factors of development of serous RD, which is presumably associated with the disruption of the blood-retinal barriers in these conditions.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RD) is still a sight-threatening and potentially blinding disease, especially if both eyes are affected. The purpose of this study is analysing the specific characteristics of bilateral rhegmatogenous RD. METHODS The files of all 5,791 consecutive eyes undergoing vitreoretinal surgery for uncomplicated RD in a single tertiary retinal centre between January 2005 and June 2021 were retrospectively reviewed. RESULTS A total of 300 patients (600 eyes) had bilateral retinal detachment. Interval between initial and subsequent RD surgery was 2.6 ± 2.8 (mean ± SD, median 1.5) years. Symptoms were reported by the patients for 20 ± 75 (median 5) days before presentation in the initial eye and 12 ± 32 (median 4) days in the subsequent eye. 220 patients were male (73%), and mean age at initial RD was 55 years. 183 (61%) of the initial RD eyes were phakic. In the initial eye, more patients had a detached macula, worse visual acuity, and more quadrants involved. Primary anatomic success rate was higher in the subsequent eye (90%) compared to the initial eye (83%). There was no difference in the reattachment rate of fellow eyes with primary failure in the first eye (91%) compared to those with primary success in the first eye (90%). There was a high symmetry between the eyes in terms of type of retinal break, number of breaks, and presumed localization of the causative retinal break. CONCLUSION Patients with bilateral RD were more commonly male and younger than the group of all RD patients. The proportion of pseudophakia was not different. The majority of fellow eye RD occurred within 2 years after the RD in the first eye. Second eye RD was less advanced and had a better anatomical repair rate. Despite their experience in the first eye and despite typical symptoms, patients presented only after a mean of 12 days with RD in the second eye. RD in the initial and the subsequent eye showed a high symmetry. The anatomic result in the first eye is not a predictor for the anatomic result in the subsequent eye.

Abstract
Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) is the most common form of retinal detachment (RD), affecting 1 in 10,000 patients per year. The condition has significant ocular morbidity, with a sizeable proportion of patients obtaining poor visual outcomes. Despite this, the genetics underpinning Idiopathic Retinal Detachment (IRD) remain poorly understood; this is likely due to small sample sizes in relevant studies. The majority of research pertains to the well-characterised Mende lian syndromes, such as Sticklers and Wagners, associated with RRD. Nevertheless, in recent years, there has been an increasing body of literature identifying the common genetic mutations and mechanisms associated with IRD. Several recent Genomic Wide Association Studies (GWAS) studies have identified a number of genetic loci related to the development of IRD. Our review aims to provide an up-to-date summary of the significant genetic mechanisms and associations of Idiopathic RRD.

Evaluation of long-term outcomes associated with extended heavy-silicone oil use for the treatment of inferior retinal detachment. Sci Rep 2022; 12:11636. [PMID: 35804082 PMCID: PMC9270317 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-15896-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2022] [Accepted: 06/30/2022] [Indexed: 11/08/2022] Open
Abstract
To evaluate macular status with optical coherence tomography (OCT) in eyes that underwent pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) and heavy-silicone oil (HSO) endotamponade for the treatment of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) with inferior breaks. Twenty eyes of 20 patients who have RRD with inferior breaks included in the study. Oxane HD was used as an intraocular tamponade for all surgeries. Postoperatively, anatomic reattachment, macular status using OCT imaging, and any long-term complications were evaluated. The mean age was 60.4 ± 11.2 years (range, 37-83). The duration of HSO endotamponade was 15.3 ± 11.0 months (range, 6-48) with some postoperative complications such as HSO emulsification, intraocular pressure elevation, and epiretinal membrane (ERM) formation. Mean follow-up time was 19.5 ± 10.5 months (range, 10-59) after HSO removal or ERM surgery. Primary reattachment was achieved in 90% of eyes and the success rate was 100% with further interventions. Ellipsoid zone (EZ) was continuous in 13 of 20 eyes in which OCT imaging performed as well as the fellow eye. PPV and heavy-silicone oil injection for the treatment of eyes with RRD from inferior break(s) have a good long-term EZ continuity. ERM formation and its removal do not affect EZ.
