Meta-regression of idiopathic full-thickness macular holes diameter and anatomical closure rate: Implications to intraoperative technique. Heliyon 2024; 10:e36588. [PMID: 39263185 PMCID: PMC11387363 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e36588] [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: 08/25/2023] [Revised: 08/13/2024] [Accepted: 08/19/2024] [Indexed: 09/13/2024] Open
Abstract
Purpose Primary surgery failure of macular holes causes poor visual acuity outcomes. Several studies indicate that small-medium idiopathic full-thickness macular holes (iFTMH) have consistent and high anatomical closure rates after vitrectomy and internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling, regardless of iFTMH diameters. However, there is no systematic analysis examining the relationship between iFTMH diameters and anatomical closure rates. Methods In this systematic review and meta-regression, we searched PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science databases on October 24th, 2022. We included studies regarding iFTMH, with ILM peeling/inverted flap technique, long-lasting gas tamponade, and face-down position after surgery. Univariable meta-regression with a restricted cubic spline model and component-plus-residual plot after covariables adjustment were used to explore non-linear association. Results A total of 7257 participants from 19 randomized controlled trials and 49 observational studies were included in this meta-analysis. In ILM peeling group, every 100-μm increment in diameter was associated with a 3.8 % (95 % confidence interval [CI], 1.8%-5.7 %, P < 0.001) relatively lower anatomical closure rate. Yet, among studies using the inverted flap technique, baseline iFTMH diameter was not associated with a lower anatomical closure rate (0.2 %, 95%CI, -4.2 %-4.5 %, P > 0.9). The restricted cubic spline model and component-plus-residual plot controlling for age, sex, and symptom duration prior to surgery showed no evident non-linearity in both surgical techniques. Conclusions The iFTMH diameter is linear and inversely associated with the anatomical closure rate after the ILM peeling technique, but not with the inverted flap technique. The present study supports the use of advanced techniques, e.g., inverted flap technique, in small-medium iFTMH to improve anatomical closure rates.

Abstract
PURPOSE To analyze the surgical outcomes of petalloid multilayered inverted internal limiting flap using perfluorocarbon liquid (PFCL) in extra-large macular holes (MHs) (minimum linear diameter >550 µm and basal diameter [BD] >1000 µm). METHODS This was a prospective interventional series of 103 eyes of 99 patients with extra-large MHs which were treated with 25-gauge pars plana vitrectomy, petalloid multilayered inverted internal limiting membrane flaps under PFCL and 15% perfluoropropane (C3F8) gas tamponade. Intraoperative optical coherence tomography (i-OCT) was used to confirm correct positioning of flaps. Follow-up was at 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months postoperatively. RESULTS Mean age of patients was 58.282 ± 16.3 years. Mean preoperative best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was logarithm of minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) 1.206 ± 0.384, and the value at the third month was logMAR 0.793 ± 0.337. Mean minimum linear diameter (MLD) was 711.96 ± 270.744 µm. MLD ranged from 557µm (minimum MLD) to 2657 µm (maximum MLD). Mean BD was 1301.165 ± 425.914 µm. Type 1 closure was seen in 92.2% eyes, 5.8% eyes had type 2 closure, and 1.9% eyes had type 3 closure. Eyes with both type 1 closure (P = 0.001) and type 2 closure (P = 0.009) showed a significant improvement in BCVA postoperatively at 3 months. CONCLUSION Petalloid multilayered inverted internal limiting membrane flap under PFCL technique with adjunctive use of i-OCT showed improved morphological and functional outcomes in the treatment of extra-large MHs. We present here a large series of extra-large MHs, in which a novel technique of petalloid multilayered inverted ILM flaps was used.

Abstract
Purpose To compare the changes in anatomical structure and visual function after idiopathic macular hole (iMH) treatment with internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling and inverted ILM flap and determine the value of the inverted ILM flap for the treatment of iMH. Methods Forty-nine patients with iMH (49 eyes) were included in this study and followed up for 1 year (12 months) after treatment with inverted ILM flap and ILM peeling respectively. The main foveal parameters assessed included the preoperative minimum diameter (MD), intraoperative residual fragments, and postoperative ELM reconstruction. Visual function was assessed using best-corrected visual acuity. Results The hole closure rate was 100% for 49 patients; 15 patients were treated with the inverted ILM flap, and 34 patients underwent ILM peeling. There were no differences between the postoperative best-corrected visual acuities and the rates of ELM reconstruction for the flap and peeling groups with different MDs. In the flap group, ELM reconstruction was associated with the preoperative MD, presence of an ILM flap, and hyperreflective changes in the inner retina 1 month after surgery. In the peeling group, ELM reconstruction was associated with the preoperative MD, intraoperative residual fragments at the hole edge, and hyperreflective changes in the inner retina. Conclusion The inverted ILM flap and the ILM Peeling were both able to obtain high closure rate. However, the inverted ILM flap showed no obvious advantages related to anatomical morphology and visual function over ILM peeling.

Surgical classification for large macular hole: based on different surgical techniques results: the CLOSE study group. Int J Retina Vitreous 2023; 9:4. [PMID: 36717928 PMCID: PMC9885593 DOI: 10.1186/s40942-022-00439-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2022] [Accepted: 12/29/2022] [Indexed: 01/31/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The CLOSE study group proposes an updated surgical classification for large macular holes based on a systematic review of new treatments. Recently, many new techniques have been introduced to treat large full-thickness macular holes (FTMH); although the indications are not clear. An updated surgical classification is needed to help surgical decision-making. METHODS We gathered published series by the CLOSE Study Group members and from literature search until June 2021. Techniques included: internal limiting membrane peeling (ILM peeling), ILM flaps, macular hydrodissection (macular hydro), human amniotic membrane graft (hAM), and autologous retinal transplantation (ART). Within each technique, chi-square test assessed association between the minimal linear diameter (MLD) (in µm) and closure rate; the postoperative best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) gains were compared among groups. RESULTS Data extraction included 31 published articles: total of 1135 eyes. Eyes were divided into the following groups: ILM peel (n: 683), ILM Flap (n: 233), macular hydrodissection (n: 64), hAM (n: 59), and ART (n: 96). The initial BCVA and size were heterogenous between the groups. ILM peel showed the best results in large FTMH ≤ 535 µm (closure rate 96.8%); adjusted mean BCVA: 0.49 (LogMAR) with a statistical difference among groups. Large FTMH between 535 and 799 µm: ILM flap technique showed better results (closure rate 99.0%); adjusted mean BCVA: 0.67(LogMAR); also with a statistical difference. For large FTMH ≥ 800 µm more invasive techniques are required. Use of hAM, macular hydrodissection and ART showed higher closure rates for this category (100%, 83.3% and 90.5% respectively), and adjusted mean BCVA varied from 0.76 to 0.89. Although there was no statistical difference between those techniques for this group due to the smaller number of cases. CONCLUSIONS The CLOSE study group demonstrated the potential usefulness of a new surgical classification for large FTMHs and propose OCT biomarkers for use in clinical practice and future research. This new classification demonstrated that Large (400-550 µm) and X-Large (550-800 µm) holes can be treated highly successfully with ILM peel and ILM flap techniques, respectively. Further studies are necessary for the larger FTMHs (XX-Large and Giant), using the CLOSE classification, in order to determine which technique is better suited for each hole size and characteristics.

Abstract
The field of ophthalmic imaging has grown substantially over the last years. Massive improvements in image processing and computer hardware have allowed the emergence of multiple imaging techniques of the eye that can transform patient care. The purpose of this review is to describe the most recent advances in eye imaging and explain how new technologies and imaging methods can be utilized in a clinical setting. The introduction of optical coherence tomography (OCT) was a revolution in eye imaging and has since become the standard of care for a plethora of conditions. Its most recent iterations, OCT angiography, and visible light OCT, as well as imaging modalities, such as fluorescent lifetime imaging ophthalmoscopy, would allow a more thorough evaluation of patients and provide additional information on disease processes. Toward that goal, the application of adaptive optics (AO) and full-field scanning to a variety of eye imaging techniques has further allowed the histologic study of single cells in the retina and anterior segment. Toward the goal of remote eye care and more accessible eye imaging, methods such as handheld OCT devices and imaging through smartphones, have emerged. Finally, incorporating artificial intelligence (AI) in eye images has the potential to become a new milestone for eye imaging while also contributing in social aspects of eye care.

Abstract
In this systematic review, we provide an overview of the current state of intraoperative optical coherence tomography (iOCT). As iOCT technology is increasingly utilized, its current clinical applications and potential uses warrant attention. Here, we categorize the findings of various studies by their respective fields, including the use of iOCT in vitreoretinal surgery, corneal surgery, glaucoma surgery, cataract surgery, and pediatric ophthalmology. The trend observed in recent decades towards performing minimally invasive ophthalmic surgery has caused practitioners to recognize the limitations of using a conventional surgical microscope for intraoperative visualization. Thus, the superior visualization provided by iOCT can improve the safety of these surgical techniques and promote the development of new minimally invasive ophthalmic surgeries. Landmark prospective studies found that iOCT can significantly affect surgical decision making and can cause a subsequent change in surgical strategy, and the use of iOCT has potential to improve surgical outcome. Despite these advantages, however, iOCT is still a relatively new technique, and beginning users of iOCT can encounter limitations that can preclude their reaching the full potential of iOCT and in this respect several improvements are needed.

Abstract
PURPOSE To introduce and evaluate a modified therapeutic strategy for idiopathic macular holes (IMH). METHODS A retrospective review of patients with diagnosis of IMH from July 2016 to January 2020 at Peking Union Medical College Hospital. These patients were managed strictly according to our therapeutic strategy. Their comprehensive clinical data were collected and analyzed. RESULTS 209 eyes suffering stage II to IV IMH were identified. For stage II IMH, the spontaneous closure rate was 8.9%, the initial success rate of intravitreal injections (IVI) of expansile gas and pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) + internal limiting membrane peeling (ILMP) + air tamponade was 84.2% and 100%, respectively. The initial success rate of PPV + ILMP + air tamponade for stage III and stage IV IMH was 89.8% and 86.4%, respectively. Following our intervention strategy, stage II IMH achieved a final IMH closure rate of 100%, stage III of 99% and stage IV of 97%. The final best corrected visual acuity was significantly improved (P < 0.05). Sitting position air-fluid (A-F) exchange alone successfully induced IMH closure in 7/19 eyes that did not achieve IMH closure by initial PPV. For three refractory cases that failed additional PPV + ILM stuffing, intraoperative OCT assisted PPV + sub-retinal BSS injection successfully induced the IMH closure. As the remaining three unclosed IMH cases were dry and stable, no more interventions were conducted. CONCLUSION The general IMH closure rate based on our therapeutic strategy was satisfactory with a favorable prognosis. IVI expansile gas and sitting position A-F exchange were effective and highly cost-effective under certain circumstances.

Abstract
Purpose In this study, we aimed to evaluate the relationship between macular hole closure types assessed by optical coherence tomography (OCT) and the preoperative prognostic factors. Materials and methods In total, 183 patients who underwent pars plana vitrectomy and internal limiting membrane peeling for idiopathic macular hole between August 2014 and August 2019 were reviewed retrospectively. The preoperative measurements of the macular hole including minimum linear diameter (MLD), basal hole diameter (BHD) and hole height (HH) were measured on OCT images. The patients were divided into two closure types on the basis of postoperative OCT findings (type 1 closure: retinal edges were flat and there was no defect of the neurosensory retina on the fovea; type 2 closure: retinal edges were flat and there was a defect of the neurosensory retina on the fovea). The difference of prognostic factors such as age; duration of symptoms; preoperative best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA); preoperative macular hole measurements, including MLD, BHD and HH; and rate of reopening between two types were statistically analysed. Results The mean age of patients was 66.33 ± 8.09 years (range: 48-88 years). According to OCT imaging, 117 eyes (63.9%) were classified into the type 1 closure group, and 66 eyes (36.1%) were classified into the type 2 closure group. There were no significant differences between two groups in age, duration of symptoms and preoperative BCVA (p = 0.694, p = 0.092 and p = 0.15). MLD and BHD were significantly larger, and reopening was significantly more common in type 2 group (p < 0.05, p = 0.04 and p < 0.005); however, there was no significant difference in HH between two groups (p = 0.239). Conclusion Preoperative horizontal measurements of macular hole may help to determine postoperative visual expectations and anatomical success, and predict the possibility of reopening.

Abstract
Intraoperative imaging of ocular tissues for diagnostic and therapeutic applications has gained immense admiration in recent years. The real time cross-sectional imaging, as well as three and four dimensional reconstruction abilities of intraoperative optical coherence tomography (iOCT), has enhanced our knowledge on many fronts in surgical maneuvers. In this review, we discuss the iOCT discovered constructive knowledge in the cornea, cataract, refractive, glaucoma, pediatric ocular, and various retinal conditions. The practical utility with decision modifying aspects along the specified ocular tissues and with respect to specific ocular entities have been narrated. Moreover, limitations and future directions have also been emphasized to make ophthalmic care more comprehensive in the future.

BMC Ophthalmol 2020; 20:280.

Abstract
Background To investigate the ability of intraoperative optical coherence tomography (iOCT) during macular hole (MH) surgery to image different hole edge configurations and predict the restoration of retinal microstructure and visual outcomes. Methods This retrospective case series study included 53 MH patients. One eye each was assessed with iOCT during vitrectomy after internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling. The MHs were categorized into three groups according to the morphology of the hole edge. The Hole-Door group had vertical pillars of tissue that projected into the vitreous cavity after ILM peeling. The Foveal Flap group had a preoperative foveal flap that adhered to the hole edge after ILM peeling, and the Negative group had neither a hole-door nor a foveal flap. At 6 months after surgery, the retinal microstructure restoration and visual outcomes were compared among the groups. Results All eyes had MH closure, and the postoperative best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was significantly improved compared with the preoperative BCVA (P < 0.001). The Hole-Door group (n = 15) and Foveal Flap group (n = 14) had significantly better final visual acuity and postoperative restoration of the external limiting membrane (ELM) than the Negative group (n = 24) (P = 0.002, P = 0.012). For the group in which the MH diameter (MHD) was ≤400 μm (n = 25), there were no significant differences in ELM restoration, ellipsoid zone (EZ) restoration, or BCVA among the three groups (P = 0.516, P = 0.179, and P = 0.179 respectively). For the MHD > 400-μm group (n = 28, the Hole-Door group and Foveal Flap group had significantly better final visual acuity and restoration of ELM than the Negative group (P = 0.013, P = 0.005). Conclusions The novel use of iOCT during MH surgery confirmed the presence of hole edges configured as door-holes, foveal flaps, or neither. The data acquired by iOCT can provide useful predictive information for postoperative restoration of the retinal microstructure and visual outcome of MH, especially large ones.

A Systematic Review. J Clin Med 2020; 9:jcm9061682. [PMID: 32498222 PMCID: PMC7356858 DOI: 10.3390/jcm9061682] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/07/2020] [Revised: 05/28/2020] [Accepted: 05/28/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has recently been introduced in the operating theatre. The aim of this review is to present the actual role of microscope-integrated optical coherence tomography (MI-OCT) in ophthalmology. Method: A total of 314 studies were identified, following a literature search adhering to the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. After full-text evaluation, 81 studies discussing MI-OCT applications in ophthalmology were included. Results: At present, three microscope-integrated optical coherence tomography systems are commercially available. MI-OCT can help anterior and posterior segment surgeons in the decision-making process, providing direct visualization of anatomic planes before and after surgical manoeuvres, assisting in complex cases, and detecting or confirming intraoperative complications. Applications range from corneal transplant to macular surgery, including cataract surgery, glaucoma surgery, paediatric examination, proliferative diabetic retinopathy surgery, and retinal detachment surgery. Conclusion: The use of MI-OCT in ophthalmic surgery is becoming increasingly prevalent and has been applied in almost all procedures. However, there are still limitations to be overcome and the technology involved remains difficult to access and use.

[PMID: 31324587 DOI: 10.1016/j.oret.2019.05.022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/19/2019] [Revised: 05/14/2019] [Accepted: 05/20/2019] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the significance of correlation between the intraoperative OCT findings and postoperative retinal morphologic and physiologic features in eyes with an idiopathic macular hole (MH). DESIGN Retrospective, interventional case-control study. PARTICIPANTS Pars plana vitrectomy with internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling and air tamponade was performed on 33 eyes with idiopathic MHs. All of the eyes were followed up for at least 6 months. METHODS The intraoperative OCT (Rescan; Carl Zeiss Meditec, Oberkochen, Germany) images were used to detect the presence of residual fragments at the edge of the MH, and the eyes were divided into those with residual fragments (the residual group) and those without residual fragments (the nonresidual group). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES The preoperative and postoperative OCT (Spectralis; Heidelberg Engineering, Heidelberg, Germany) findings and visual acuities were compared. The area of the hyperreflective tissue at the inner layer of the closed MH was measured with ImageJ software (National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD). RESULTS Residual fragments were detected in 22 eyes (67%), including 3 eyes with residual ILM fragments, and were not detected in 11 eyes. Age, gender, preoperative vision, refractive errors, and axial length were not significantly different between the 2 groups. The presence of residual fragments was associated significantly with the presence of epiretinal membrane (P = 0.040) and with epiretinal membrane, epiretinal proliferation, or both (P = 0.007) in the preoperative OCT images. However, they were not associated significantly with the presence of epiretinal proliferation and ILM fragments. The MHs were closed after surgery in all eyes with type 1 closure. Postoperative vision was significantly worse in the residual group at 3 and 6 months (P = 0.029 and P = 0.037, respectively). The sizes of the hyperreflective inner retinal tissue were significantly larger in the residual group than those in the nonresidual group at 1 and 3 months after surgery (P < 0.01). The sizes of the tissue decreased significantly after surgery in the residual group (P < 0.001) but not in the nonresidual group. CONCLUSIONS The residual fragments detected at the edge of the MH by intraoperative OCT may be the hyperreflective tissue observed in closed MHs and are predictors of limited postoperative visual improvements.
