Abstract
AIM The main aim of this study is to evaluate the anatomical and functional results of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with peeling of the internal limiting membrane (ILM), membrane blue staining and subsequent expansile gas tamponade (perfluoropropane) in the treatment of idiopathic macular hole (IMH). MATERIAL AND METHODS The retrospective analysis consisted of 100 eyes of a total of 100 patients (61 women and 39 men) with IMH, operated on at the Department of Ophthalmology of the Slovak Medical University and University Hospital Bratislava from 1 January 2021 to 1 January 2024, using 25-gauge PPV with ILM peeling and perfluoropropane tamponade (C3F8) of 15% concentration. After surgery, the patients were required to remain in a face-down position for at least one week. Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), minimal linear diameter (MLD) on optic coherence tomography, macular hole closure type and occurrence of complications were evaluated. The obtained results were expressed with the use of arithmetic averages and displayed in graphs. RESULTS Primary closure of macular hole was achieved in 93 patients (93%). The most frequently occurring type of closure was 1A. After surgery, the BCVA of all patients improved, from an average value of 0.101 preoperatively to 0.300 one year after surgery. In all groups of patients (regardless of the size of the macular hole before surgery), during the one-year follow-up period there was a gradual increase in BCVA with its stabilization by 6 months. The main factors that influenced postoperative BCVA were the preoperative values of MLD and BCVA. CONCLUSION PPV with ILM peeling and perfluoropropane tamponade is an effective treatment for idiopathic macular holes with a success rate of more than 90%. This surgical procedure, associated with a relatively low number of complications, brings patients a definite improvement of BCVA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Aim of the study was to compare success rate and functional outcome following pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with conventional internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling versus ILM flap technique for full-thickness idiopathic macular holes (FTMH). METHODS Retrospective analysis of consecutive eyes with FTMH having undergone vitrectomy with sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) endotamponade 25% at the University Medical Center Rostock, Germany (2009-2020). Eyes were divided according to applied surgical technique (ILM peeling [group P] versus ILM flap [group F]). Inclusion criteria were macular hole base diameters (MH-BD) ≥ 400 μm plus axial length ≤ 26.0 mm. Each group was divided into two subgroups based on macular hole minimum linear diameter (MH-MLD): ≤ 400 μm and > 400 μm. Exclusion criteria were FTMH with MH-BD < 400 μm, trauma, myopia with axial length > 26.0 mm or macular schisis. Demographic, functional, and anatomical data were obtained pre- and postoperatively. Preoperative MH-BD and MH-MLD were measured using optical coherence tomography (OCT; Spectralis®, Heidelberg Engineering GmbH, Heidelberg, Germany). Main outcome parameter were: primary closure rate, best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), and re-surgery rate. RESULTS Overall 117 eyes of 117 patients with FTMH could be included, thereof 52 eyes underwent conventional ILM peeling (group P) and 65 additional ILM flap (group F) technique. Macular hole closure was achieved in 31 eyes (59.6%) in group P and in 59 eyes (90.8%) in group F (p < 0.001). Secondary PPV was required in 21 eyes (40.4%) in group P and in 6 eyes (9.2%) in group F. Postoperative BCVA at first follow-up in eyes with surgical closure showed no significant difference for both groups (MH-MLD ≤ 400 μm: p = 0.740); MH-MLD > 400 μm: p = 0.241). CONCLUSION Anatomical results and surgical closure rate following ILM flap technique seems to be superior to conventional ILM peeling for treatment of FTMH.

Exp Ther Med 2019; 18:589-595. [PMID: 31258694 PMCID: PMC6566017 DOI: 10.3892/etm.2019.7610] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/14/2018] [Accepted: 02/21/2019] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
The aim of the present study was to investigate whether internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling in patients with myopic foveoschisis (MF) treated with 23-gauge (23G) vitrectomy improved the anatomical and visual outcomes. In this retrospective cohort study, from March 2014 to August 2017 at the Department of Ophthalmology, The Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University (Nanchang, China), 60 patients (60 eyes) with MF underwent 23G vitrectomy. The patients were grouped according to whether they underwent brilliant blue-assisted ILM peeling (peeling group) or not (non-peeling group). Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and central macular thickness (CMT) on optical coherence tomography were measured. There were 30 eyes in each group and the baseline characteristics were similar (all P>0.05). BCVA improved in 24 eyes (80%) in the peeling group and 25 eyes (83.3%) in the non-peeling group (P=0.922). Preoperative CMT was not significantly different between the peeling and non-peeling group (458±62.2 vs. 460±61.1 µm, respectively, P=0.229). However, postoperative CMT was significantly different between the peeling and non-peeling group (269.3±67.7 vs. 294.4±60.5 µm, respectively; P=0.015). In the peeling group, MF was completely resolved in all 30 eyes, but only in 26 eyes in the non-peeling group (P=0.038). Postoperative Amsler testing was positive in five eyes in the peeling group and 13 eyes in the non-peeling group (P=0.024). Complications were similar in both groups; postoperatively, there were one and two cases of iatrogenic peripheral retinal break, three and two cases of macular hole, and one and one case of retinal detachment in the peeling and non-peeling groups, respectively.23G vitrectomy combined with brilliant blue-assisted ILM peeling resulted in better visual and anatomical effects compared with 23G vitrectomy alone in patients with MF.

Abstract
Objective: To assess visual and anatomical outcome of full thickness macular hole (FTMH) surgery with ILM peeling using brilliant blue G dye. Methods: Thirty patients who had clinically evident macular hole were selected. Pre-operative Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) was done. In all cases vitrectomy was performed via 23guage 3 ports pars plana (3PPV) vitrectomy system and Brilliant blue G dye, 0.5ml dye was injected over macula which resulted in light blue stain of ILM and peeling was performed around hole in circular motion and after gas fluid exchange gas tamponade with SF6 was done. Final visual and anatomical outcome was measured as postoperative BCVA and postoperative OCT at three months respectively. Descriptive statistics were computed. Paired t-test was applied. P value≤0.05 were considered as significant. Results: There were 12 male and 18 female patients. The mean age was 57.40±4.76 years. The mean size of macular hole was 452.20±242.33μm. The mean duration of symptoms was 16.73±13.49 weeks. Mean pre operative BCVA was 1.30±0.73 log MAR and post operative was 0.51±0.23 log MAR. Mean increased BCVA was found to be 0.22±0.13 log MAR. Primary closure of hole was achieved in 29(96.7%). Significant mean difference was found in pre operative and post operative BCVA. Conclusion: Brilliant blue G exhibits sufficient staining qualities and safety profile to peel ILM in the management of full thickness macular hole with significant visual and anatomical improvement.

Abstract
Purpose To compare the results of 20, 23, 25 gauge pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with two different gas tamponades for idiopathic macular hole (MH) in a multi-surgeon vitroretinal practice. Methods In this comparative, retrospective, interventional case series, the medical charts of 142 eyes/130 patients were reviewed. Patients who matched our inclusion criteria: eye with stage 2, 3, or 4 MH that underwent 20, 23, or 25 gauge PPV, internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling, and fluid-gas exchange from January, 2005 to May, 2012 and had at least 6 months follow-up. The best current corrected visual acuity (VA) and anatomical status of the MH were assessed by optical coherent tomography (OCT) at 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years after vitrectomy. Results The MH closed successfully after primary vitrectomy in 86.5 % (20 gauge), 96.4 % (23 gauge), and 92 % (25 gauge). Preoperative VA median were 20\126 (20 gauge), 20\100 (23 gauge), and 20\80 (25 gauge). At 6 months and 2 years postoperative VA did not differ significantly between the 3 groups (p = 0.570, and 0.054 respectively). However, at 12 months postoperative VA median 20\60 (20 gauge), 20\69 (23 gauge), and 20\40 (25 gauge) differ significantly (p = 0.005) likely due to cataract changes. The final median postoperative VA (at 2 years) in 25 gauge PPV group was 20/40 which was better than final visual outcomes for 20, and 23 gauge PPV groups (20/50, and 20/55 respectively). The different was not a statistically significant. MH closed successfully in 96 % (C3F8), and 88.1 % (SF6) (p = 0.063). Preoperative median VA was 20/100 in both groups of gas. At 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years postoperative median VAs did not differ significant between the 2 groups (p = 0.076, 0.343, and 0.309 respectively). MH closed successfully in (96.9 %) 12-14 % C3F8, and (95.3 %) 15-16 % C3F8 (p = 0.611). MH closed in (82.1 %) 18-20 % SF6, and (96.4 %) 22-26 % SF6 (p=0.053). Conclusion Based on the results of this study, 20, 23, and 25 gauge of PPV have similar MH closure rates and VA outcomes. SF6 at 22-26 % or C3F8 at 12-14 % achieved maximum closure rates.

Abstract
Full thickness macular hole is an eye disease, which can cause permanent visual impairment. Current advancement in vitreoretinal surgery has high success rates in repairing them, leading to a significant visual improvement, especially if patient presents early. In this article, three cases of idiopathic full thickness macular hole with different visual outcomes have been presented. All cases were referred by the primary care practitioners and had undergone macular hole surgery with the same vitreoretinal surgeon. The visual outcome was best in the patient who had the earliest presentation and referral. Early detection and referral of these patients is vital so that early surgical intervention can be carried out to improve their vision.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the clinical results of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) combined with the surgical enlargement of internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling in patients who had previously undergone failed idiopathic macular hole (IMH) surgery. In the study, 134 eyes from 130 IMH patients who had received PPV combined with ILM peeling surgery (2 disk diameters) were analyzed. Within this cohort, 14 eyes had IMHs that were not closed, of which 13 eyes underwent a second surgery involving enlargement of the ILM peeling. The extent of the ILM peeling was increased to the vascular arcades of the posterior fundus in the secondary surgery. Of the 13 eyes that underwent secondary surgery, five were in stage III and nine were in stage IV. The second surgery successfully achieved IMH closure in 61.5% (8/13) of the eyes. The IMH was completely closed following surgery and the logMAR vision increased from 0.98 to 0.84 (P=0.013) in the 8 successfully treated cases. The surgical enlargement of ILM peeling closed the IMHs and improved vision in the majority of patients. In addition, the procedures were safe. Therefore, the results of the present study indicate that enlargement of ILM peeling may be an effective therapy for patients who have previously undergone the failed surgical correction of an IMH.

Abstract
PURPOSE To assess and compare the complications and long-term visual and anatomical outcomes of 20- and 23-gauge phacovitrectomy (PVT) for idiopathic macular hole repair. METHODS A retrospective, consecutive, interventional case series of 72 eyes with idiopathic macular holes were managed with 20-gauge PVT (n=36) or 23-gauge PVT (n=36). All patients underwent a posterior-chamber intra-ocular lens implantation and internal-limiting-membrane peel with the aid of either trypan blue or brilliant blue G(250) dyes. RESULTS The macular hole closure rate was 97% with 20-gauge PVT and 100% with 23-gauge PVT. Mean follow-up was 24.06 (±12.83) months with 20-gauge PVT and 17.47 (±5.79) with 23-gauge PVT. Mean visual acuity improvement in LogMar was 0.41 (±0.32) with 20-gauge PVT and 0.52 (±0.25) with 23-gauge PVT (P=0.135). The incidence of retinal breaks was higher with the 20-gauge PVT compared with the 23-gauge PVT, occurring in 13 (36.1%) and 4 (11.1%) cases, respectively (P=0.025). There were no cases of retinal detachment. Postoperative intraocular pressure (IOP), at day 1, was significantly higher with 20-gauge PVT at 24.77 (±12.68) mm Hg compared with 17.20 (±6.95) mm Hg in 23-gauge PVT (P=0.0028). Operating times were longer in 20-gauge PVT at 89.36 (±15.26) min compared with the 23-gauge PVT at 79.33 (±23.82) min (P=0.04). CONCLUSION The 20-gauge PVT compared with 23-gauge PVT for macular hole repair is a slightly longer procedure and was associated with an increased incidence of retinal breaks and short-term elevated IOP. Both techniques have comparable visual and anatomical outcomes, but the 23-gauge PVT has advantages with regard to safety profile and operating time.

Abstract
Purpose We analyzed the anatomical and visual outcomes after surgical treatment of idiopathic macular holes with pars plana vitrectomy, internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling using Brilliant Blue dye, and silicone oil tamponade without postoperative posturing. Methods This was a retrospective interventional study of 10 eyes in eight patients who underwent surgical treatment of idiopathic macular holes using pars plana vitrectomy, ILM peeling using Brilliant Blue dye, and silicone oil tamponade without postoperative posturing. The preoperative staging of macular holes and postoperative anatomic outcomes were assessed using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography. Results All patients were women with a mean age of 66.86 ± 4.8 years. In two patients, bilateral macular holes were present and both eyes were operated on. Stage 2 macular hole was diagnosed in three eyes, three eyes had stage 3, and four eyes had stage 4 macular holes. Anatomical success and closure of the macular hole was achieved in nine eyes (90%) after one operation. In one eye, the macular hole was closed after reoperation. The preoperative mean best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 0.15 decimal units (0.8 logMAR units). Until the end of the follow-up period, BCVA was 0.25 decimal units (0.6 logMAR units). Visual acuity was improved in seven patients (70%). In two patients (20%), visual acuity remained at the same level, and in one eye (10%), visual acuity decreased. Postoperatively, all patients reported a significant reduction of metamorphopsia. Conclusion Initial results after 20G pars plana vitrectomy with peeling of the ILM, use of dye (Brilliant Blue), and tamponade with silicone oil without postoperative posturing gave good anatomical and functional outcome in terms of visual acuity and reduction of metamorphopsia. Taking into account the age of the patients, this method, which does not require prolonged postoperative face-down posturing, was well tolerated by the patients. Because the anatomical and visual outcome as well as the rate of postoperative complications are comparable to those when gas is used as a tamponading agent, silicone oil tamponade can also be safely used as a first option in surgery of macular holes. However, a longer period of follow-up of the operated eyes, as well as a larger group of operated eyes, will be required to identify long-term outcomes of this surgical treatment.
