To assess macular structure and function by optical coherence tomography (OCT) and focal electroretinogram (FERG) before and after intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide (IVTA) administration for cystoid macular edema (CME) in a patient with retinitis pigmentosa (RP).
A 33-year-old man with RP and refractory bilateral macular edema was treated with IVTA in his left eye and evaluated with visual acuity, OCT, and FERG for 6 months. RESULTS. Compared to the fellow eye, after IVTA mean retinal thickness significantly decreased, while FERG amplitude and phase did not show significant changes at the end of follow-up. Visual acuity showed a significant tendency to improve.
In this case report, IVTA improved macular anatomy and visual acuity; this result, however, was not associated with a similar electrophysiologic response.
通过光学相干断层扫描(OCT)和焦点视网膜电图(FERG)评估玻璃体内注射曲安奈德(IVTA)治疗色素性视网膜炎(RP)患者黄斑囊样水肿(CME)前后的黄斑结构和功能。
一名33岁患有RP和难治性双侧黄斑水肿的男性患者,左眼接受IVTA治疗,并通过视力、OCT和FERG进行6个月的评估。结果。与对侧眼相比,IVTA治疗后平均视网膜厚度显著降低,而随访结束时FERG振幅和相位未显示出显著变化。视力显示出显著的改善趋势。
在本病例报告中,IVTA改善了黄斑解剖结构和视力;然而,这一结果与类似的电生理反应无关。
