To evaluate changes in peripapillary choroidal thickness in patients with branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) over 12 months, using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography with enhanced depth imaging.
This retrospective, interventional case series included 20 treatment-naive patients with unilateral BRVO with at least 12 months follow-up. The peripapillary choroidal thickness was measured over 12 months.
In BRVO-affected eyes, the mean peripapillary choroidal thickness was 213.5 ± 51.7 μm (126.1[FIGURE DASH]326.9 μm) at baseline and 129.6 ± 39.3 μm (65.9[FIGURE DASH]197.1 μm) at 12 months. In nonaffected contralateral eyes, the mean peripapillary choroidal thickness was 194.1 ± 39.8 μm (158.5[FIGURE DASH]238.3 μm) at baseline and 156.6 ± 56.2 μm (125.9[FIGURE DASH]213.9 μm) at 12 months. The mean peripapillary choroidal thickness decreased significantly over 12 months in both BRVO-affected and nonaffected eyes (P < 0.001, both eyes). Although the mean peripapillary choroidal thickness was not significantly different between groups at baseline (P = 0.472), it was significantly lower in BRVO-affected eyes than in nonaffected eyes at 12 months (P = 0.036).
Peripapillary choroidal thickness decreased significantly over 12 months in BRVO-affected eyes and nonaffected eyes in patients with unilateral BRVO.
采用增强深度成像的光谱域光学相干断层扫描技术,评估视网膜分支静脉阻塞(BRVO)患者12个月期间视乳头周围脉络膜厚度的变化。
本回顾性、干预性病例系列研究纳入20例未经治疗的单侧BRVO患者,随访至少12个月。测量其视乳头周围脉络膜厚度,为期12个月。
在受BRVO影响的眼中,基线时视乳头周围脉络膜平均厚度为213.5±51.7μm(126.1[图横线]326.9μm),12个月时为129.6±39.3μm(65.9[图横线]197.1μm)。在未受影响的对侧眼中,基线时视乳头周围脉络膜平均厚度为194.1±39.8μm(158.5[图横线]238.3μm),12个月时为156.6±56.2μm(125.9[图横线]213.9μm)。在受BRVO影响的眼和未受影响的眼中,视乳头周围脉络膜平均厚度在12个月期间均显著下降(双眼P<0.001)。虽然两组在基线时视乳头周围脉络膜平均厚度无显著差异(P = 0.472),但在12个月时,受BRVO影响的眼的视乳头周围脉络膜平均厚度显著低于未受影响的眼(P = 0.036)。
单侧BRVO患者中,受BRVO影响的眼和未受影响的眼的视乳头周围脉络膜厚度在12个月期间均显著下降。
