To describe clinical outcomes associated with the use of topical difluprednate in treating uveitic cystoid macular edema.
Retrospective, interventional case series.
Setting: Medical record review in a tertiary care uveitis center.
Fifty-eight patients (72 eyes) with uveitic cystoid macular edema (CME) treated with difluprednate 0.05% ophthalmic solution between June 2012 and May 2016.
Macular central subfield thickness (CST) determined by optical coherence tomography, improvement of CME (≥20% reduction in CST or resolution), and resolution of CME (CST ≤ 320 μm with no cysts) at 30 days after starting treatment. Outcomes were assessed up to 90 days.
CST on average decreased by 17% (95% CI: -33%, -7%) for eyes using only difluprednate (n = 43) and by 6% (95% CI: -17%, -2%) for eyes in patients using concomitant systemic immunosuppressive therapy (n = 29) at 30 days, a 12% difference between groups (95% CI: 2%, 21%, P = .02). Of eyes on difluprednate alone, 76% had improvement and 48% had resolution of CME. In patients using systemic therapy, 37% of eyes had improvement and 17% had resolution. Eight eyes (11%) had an intraocular pressure (IOP) > 24 mm Hg within the first 30 days. By 90 days, CME had improved in 69% of all eyes and resolved in 43% of eyes, with only 9 patients starting or increasing systemic immunosuppressive medications and 2 patients receiving periocular corticosteroid injections.
Difluprednate was associated with an improvement in uveitic CME and could be a reasonable first-line therapy. IOP should be closely monitored.
描述局部应用二氟泼尼酯治疗葡萄膜炎性囊样黄斑水肿的临床结果。
回顾性、干预性病例系列研究。
研究地点:在一家三级护理葡萄膜炎中心进行病历回顾。
2012 年 6 月至 2016 年 5 月期间,58 例(72 只眼)葡萄膜炎性囊样黄斑水肿患者接受二氟泼尼酯 0.05%眼用溶液治疗。
采用光学相干断层扫描(OCT)测量黄斑中心小凹区厚度(CST),评估治疗后 30 天内 CME 改善(CST 降低≥20%或完全消退)和 CME 消退(CST≤320μm 且无囊泡)情况。结果评估最长可达 90 天。
仅使用二氟泼尼酯的眼(n=43),平均 CST 降低 17%(95%CI:-33%,-7%),同时使用全身免疫抑制治疗的眼(n=29)降低 6%(95%CI:-17%,-2%),两组间差异为 12%(95%CI:2%,21%,P=0.02)。单独使用二氟泼尼酯的眼,76%改善,48%消退。全身治疗的眼,37%改善,17%消退。治疗后 30 天内,有 8 只眼(11%)眼压(IOP)>24mmHg。90 天时,所有眼的 CME 改善率为 69%,消退率为 43%,仅 9 例患者开始或增加全身免疫抑制药物治疗,2 例患者接受眼周皮质类固醇注射。
二氟泼尼酯治疗葡萄膜炎性 CME 有效,可作为合理的一线治疗方法。应密切监测 IOP。
