Outcomes of Vitrectomy with Fovea-Sparing and Inverted ILM Flap Technique for Myopic Foveoschisis. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11051274. [PMID: 35268365 PMCID: PMC8911329 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11051274] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/13/2022] [Revised: 02/21/2022] [Accepted: 02/24/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Surgical treatment of myopic foveoschisis (MF) can result in a macular hole in 11−17% of patients that may lead to poor visual outcomes and progression to macular hole retinal detachment. We evaluated the benefit of vitrectomy to treat MF using the inverted internal limiting membrane (ILM) flap and fovea-sparing ILM techniques. We studied 20 eyes of 20 patients (7 men, 13 women) with high MF (mean axial length, 29.3 ± 1.7 mm). MF was classified by optical coherence tomography findings: retinoschisis (7 eyes) or foveal detachment (13 eyes). Between October 2013 and June 2021, we performed vitreous surgery in all 20 patients, employing both techniques. Air tamponade was used in 4 eyes, SF6 gas in 10 eyes, and C3F8 gas in 6 eyes. All patients stayed in the face-down position for one full day postoperatively. Visual acuity and foveal contour were analyzed using optical coherence tomography before surgery and at 3 and 6 months postoperatively. LogMAR visual acuity was 0.46 before surgery, with a significant improvement at 3 months (0.34) and at 6 months (0.2) postoperatively (p = 0.024, p < 0.001, respectively). In all patients, the foveal contour showed improvement without macular hole formation after surgery. These results show that vitrectomy, performed using the inverted ILM flap and fovea-sparing ILM technique, is effective for treating MF.

Fovea-Sparing as Opposed to Total Peeling of Internal Limiting Membrane for Myopic Foveoschisis: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis. Ophthalmol Retina 2020; 5:670-679. [PMID: 33307217 DOI: 10.1016/j.oret.2020.10.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2020] [Revised: 10/14/2020] [Accepted: 10/19/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
TOPIC The effectiveness of fovea-sparing (FS) peeling of internal limiting membrane (ILM) to treat myopic foveoschisis (MF) has not been understood fully. The present meta-analysis aimed to compare postoperative visual and anatomic outcomes between FS peeling and total peeling (TP) of ILM in pars plana vitrectomy for the treatment of MF. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Postoperative macular hole (MH) development is not uncommon and is a serious complication after surgery for MF, with poor visual prognosis. Fovea-sparing peeling of ILM is expected to reduce the risk of postoperative MH; however, no statistically significant evidence exists to prove this hypothesis. In addition, its effect on postoperative visual acuity has not been clear. METHODS MEDLINE, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), and EMBASE were reviewed systematically, and studies that compared FS with total ILM peeling in MF surgery were retrieved. The protocol was registered in International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (identifier, CRD42020201675). Primary outcome measures were the postoperative best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and frequency of postoperative MH development. Certainty of evidence was evaluated by the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation system. RESULTS Eight studies with 300 eyes from 289 patients were included. All studies were nonrandomized and observational. The postoperative BCVA was significantly better in eyes treated with FS (mean difference [MD], -0.15 logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution [logMAR]; 95% confidence interval [CI], -0.24 to -0.05 logMAR; P = 0.002). The risk of postoperative MH was significantly lower in the FS group (odds ratio, 0.19; 95% CI, 0.06-0.56; P = 0.003). No significant difference was found in postoperative central foveal thickness (MD, 12.59 μm; 95% CI, -2.8 to 28.0 μm; P = 0.11). The certainty of evidence regarding lower frequency of postoperative MH after FS peeling was considered moderate, whereas the certainty regarding better postoperative BCVA after FS peeling was judged to be low. DISCUSSION Fovea-sparing peeling may contribute to better visual acuity outcome and lower risk of postoperative MH development in eyes with MF.

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 evaluate the morphologic and functional outcomes of different optical coherence tomography (OCT) patterns of myopic foveoschisis after vitrectomy with Inner Limiting Membrane (ILM) peeling. METHODS In this prospective non-randomised study, 62 consecutive eyes with Myopic Foveoschisis were categorised into three groups according to OCT pattern: retinoschisis type (Rt) Group (23/62), foveal detachment type (FDt) Group (20/62) and macular hole type (MHt) Group (19/62). All patients underwent 25-Gauge vitrectomy and ILM peeling. Air or gas tamponade was used. All patients were observed at month 1, 2, 4 and 6 after surgery. MAIN OUTCOMES MEASURES surgical success as resolution of myopic foveoschisis, central retinal thickness (CRT), IS/OS junction recovery and best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) measurement. Any complication was reported. RESULTS In all eyes OCT showed a resolution of the retinoschisis, foveal detachment and macular hole pattern, respectively. CRT significantly decreased in all Groups (p < .001), mainly in MHt. IS/OS junction recovery was mainly observed in MHt. BCVA significantly increased in all Groups (p < .01). A functional gain ≥2 Snellen lines occurred in 70, 85 and 68% in the Rt, FDt and MHt Group, respectively. Final BCVA was correlated with preoperative BCVA (R 0.74, p < 0.0001), postoperative CRT (R -0.49, p < 0.0001), and the recovery of IS/OS junction at 6 months (R 0.76, p < 0.0001). Few postoperative complications occurred. CONCLUSIONS Vitrectomy with ILM peeling results in favourable anatomic and functional outcomes for different patterns of myopic foveoschisis.

Abstract
Myopic foveoschisis (MF) is common in highly myopic eyes with posterior staphyloma, and optical coherence tomography is essential for establishing the diagnosis and monitoring disease progression. Untreated MF may lead to significant visual loss due to secondary complications. Vitrectomy with or without internal limiting membrane peeling followed by gas tamponade is the standard treatment; however, in recent years, new techniques, including macular buckling, have been introduced. We selected a total of 41 articles with 30 describing various modifications of pars plana vitrectomy, six describing the macular buckling technique, and five reporting combined surgery. The present review describes current MF treatment strategies, including outcomes, and provides a comprehensive understanding of current therapeutic options. Early detection and surgical intervention in eyes with specific risk factors may contribute to both improved visual recovery and more favorable anatomical outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE To compare the surgical outcome of 27-gauge pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with 25-gauge PPV and evaluate the efficacy of air tamponade for the treatment of myopic foveoschisis (MF). PATIENTS AND METHODS Sixty eyes of 60 consecutive patients were recruited to undergo vitrectomy, internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling, and air tamponade for treatment of MF. These eyes were divided into two groups: the 27-gauge group (n = 29) and the 25-gauge group (n = 31). RESULTS There were no significant differences in the mean operating time (P = .32), the mean time for vitrectomy (P = .20), and the suturing rate(P = .46) between the 27-gauge group and the 25-gauge group. At the final follow-up, anatomical resolution rate did not differ between the two groups (P = .65). CONCLUSION The 27-gauge vitrectomy system is as efficient and feasible as the 25-gauge system for the treatment of MF. Air tamponade can provide good postoperative anatomic resolution of MF.

Abstract
Vitrectomy combined with internal limiting membrane peeling (ILMP) treats high myopic foveoschisis with good results, but there is a risk of iatrogenic macular holes, which may be reduced by preserving the internal limiting membrane of the central fovea. This study compared complete ILMP with partial ILMP, both combined with 25G vitrectomy, for the treatment of high myopic foveoschisis.Thirty-three cases (33 eyes) of high myopic foveoschisis were retrospectively analyzed. They underwent 25G vitrectomy combined with C3F8 gas filling; Group A (20 patients, 20 eyes) underwent complete ILMP, while Group B (13 patients, 13 eyes) underwent partial ILMP to preserve the internal limiting membrane of the central fovea. Patients were followed up for 6 months and underwent best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), intraocular pressure, diopter, slit lamp microscopy, indirect ophthalmoscope, A-mode and/or B-mode ultrasound, and optical coherence tomography. Surgical complications were recorded.Up to the last follow-up, the BCVA improved and central fovea thickness (CFT) was lower compared with before surgery in both groups (All P < .05). There were no significant differences in BCVA and CFT at each time point between the groups (P > .05). Most of the postoperative retinas of the 2 groups were completely reattached, with disappearance of the macular retinoschisis cavity. Two patients in the Group A and none in the Group B developed a macular hole during follow-up (P = .508).The results did not support the superiority of partial ILMP over complete ILMP in reduced incidence of macular hole. Both methods had a similar curative effect.

Abstract
AIM To study anatomical and visual outcomes of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with non-fovea-sparing (entire) internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling in eyes with myopic foveoschisis (MF). METHODS Prospective interventional case series of eyes undergoing PPV with entire ILM peeling for symptomatic MF. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Preoperative spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) epiretinal membrane, anomalous posterior vitreous detachment, vitreoschisis and postoperative changes in SD-OCT central foveal thickness (CFT), ellipsoid zone defect, foveal detachment (FD), macular hole (MH) diameter (if present) and best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) in logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR). RESULTS This study included 21 eyes (21 patients) with mean age 60.4±13.1, 15 females (71.4%). All patients achieved complete postoperative reattachment by SD-OCT (no FD) 6 months post vitrectomy, with no iatrogenic intraoperative or postoperative MH, and with significant improvement in final BCVA from 1.6±0.30 to1.0±0.2 logMAR, and in CFT from 918.2±311.4 to182.3±33.1 µm. Patients were subdivided into subgroup A: 11 eyes without MH; and subgroup B: 10 eyes with MH, the latter had significant improvement in MH diameter (p=0.005). Preoperative BCVA was a significant risk factor for visual gain, while preoperative FD and CFT were significant for CFT change. CONCLUSION Vitrectomy with non-fovea-sparing (entire) ILM peeling resulted in a significant functional and anatomical improvement in eyes with MF with/without MH with no reported complications. Results are comparable to fovea-sparing ILM peeling.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of vitrectomy and internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling with or without gas tamponade for highly myopic foveoschisis. METHODS We performed an open-label, observer-blinded clinical trial of 85 patients with myopic foveoschisis between 2000 and 2012. Patients were randomly allocated to one of two groups, those who received vitrectomy and ILM peeling without gas tamponade (no-gas group) or those who with gas tamponade (gas group) and follow up at least 5y. RESULTS Visual acuity of gas group improved from 0.82±0.33 to 0.79±0.73 in 6mo, improved to 0.71±0.67 in 1y and within this range in the following 4y. Visual acuity of no-gas group improved from 0.81±0.46 to 0.78±0.66 in 6mo, improved to 0.70±0.65 in 1y. The finial visual acuity of two groups were significantly increased compared with the baseline (P<0.05). The visual acuity was improved in 35 of 40 eyes (87.5%) in gas group and 29 of 33 eyes (87.9%) in no-gas group, while there were no significant differences between gas group and no-gas group in the visual acuity. The foveoschisis on optical coherence tomography (OCT) completely resolved in 5 of 40 eyes in 1mo, 14 eyes in 6mo and 40 eyes in 1y in the gas group. While the foveoschisis completely resolved in 4 of 33 eyes in 1mo, 10 eyes in 6mo and 33 eyes in 1y in the no-gas group. CONCLUSION Vitrectomy and ILM peeling without gas tamponade appears to be as effective in the treatment of myopic foveoschisis as vitrectomy and ILM with gas tamponade. However, eyes treated with no-gas tamponade showed more rapid resolution of myopic foveoschisis.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the safety and efficacy of a novel macular buckling technique on foveoschisis in highly myopic eyes. METHODS Highly myopic eyes with foveoschisis, posterior staphyloma, and axial length greater than 26.5 mm, but without a full-thickness macular hole, were included. Macular buckling was performed in the included eyes using a three-armed adjustable silicon capsule. RESULTS Eight eyes from eight patients (five women) were enrolled in this study. The mean follow-up period was 11.6 (range 9-14) months. After surgery, the best-corrected visual acuity was improved in 7/8 (87.5%) eyes, optical coherence tomography imaging showed gradual anatomic improvement of macula over time. The final best-corrected visual acuity gained 21.5 early treatment diabetes retinopathy study letters from baseline on average (P = 0.014). Postoperatively, the most common complications were transiently elevated intraocular pressure (62.5%) and asymptomatic abduction limitation (100%), and the most serious complication was hemorrhagic choroidal detachment (25%). CONCLUSION Macular buckling with a three-armed adjustable silicone capsule resulted in anatomic and visual improvement in eyes with myopic foveoschisis.

Abstract
PURPOSE To identify the risk factors for the development of macular hole retinal detachment (MHRD) after vitrectomy without internal limiting membrane peeling for pathologic MF. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the records of 131 eyes (115 patients) treated with vitrectomy for pathologic MF from 2009 to 2014. The best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), refractive error, axial length, and spectral-domain optical coherence tomography findings were analyzed. RESULTS Postoperative MHRD developed in 7 eyes (5.3%). Between patients with or without secondary MHRD after vitrectomy, there were no significant differences in age, sex, axial length, preoperative BCVA, refractive error, lens status, and presence of posterior staphyloma. Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography showed all 7 eyes (100%) had foveal detachment, while only 47 patients (37.9%) of 124 eyes had foveal detachment (P = 0.004). There was no significant difference between preoperative and postoperative BCVA in the 7 eyes with MHRD. The postoperative BCVA in the 124 eyes without MHRD was significantly improved (P < 0.001). Among the 124 eyes, both preoperative and postoperative BCVA of eyes with foveal detachment was worse than the eyes without foveal detachment (P < 0.001, respectively). CONCLUSION Preoperative foveal detachment is a risk factor for the development of MHRD after vitrectomy for pathologic MF.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the effects of posterior scleral reinforcement (PSR) combined with vitrectomy for myopic foveoschisis. METHODS Thirty-nine highly myopic eyes of 39 patients with myopic foveoschisis underwent PSR combined with vitrectomy. Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), refraction error, and the foveal thickness by optical coherence tomography (OCT) were recorded before and after the surgery, and complications were noted. RESULTS The follow-up period was 12mo, and the main focus was on the results of the 12-month follow-up visit. The mean preoperative BCVA was 0.96±0.43 logMAR. At the final follow-up visit, the mean BCVA was 0.46±0.28 logMAR, which significantly improved compared with the preoperative one (P=0.003). The BCVA improved in 33 eyes (84.62%), and unchanged in 6 eyes (15.38%). At the end of follow-up, the mean refractive error was -15.13±2.55 D, and the improvement was significantly compared with the preoperative one (-17.53±4.51 D) (P=0.002). Twelve months after surgery, OCT showed complete resolution of the myopic foveoschisis and a reat-tachment of the fovea in 37 eyes (94.87%) and partial resolution in the remained two eyes (5.13%). The foveal thickness was obviously reduced at 12-month follow-up visit (196.45±36.35 µm) compared with the preoperative one (389.32±75.56 µm) (P=0.002). There were no serious complications during the 12mo follow-up period. CONCLUSION PSR combined with vitrectomy is a safe and effective procedure for myopic foveoschisis with both visual and anatomic improvement.
