To compare the long-term outcomes in chronic central serous chorioretinopathy (cCSC) following half-fluence photodynamic therapy (HF-PDT) and oral eplerenone treatment.
This retrospective comparative study included consecutive patients of cCSC treated with either HF-PDT or eplerenone. The treatment outcomes of the two groups were analyzed at 3-month, 6-month, and 12-month post-treatment.
This study included 20 eyes (20 patients) in HF-PDT group, and 18 eyes (18 patients) in eplerenone group. All baseline parameters in HF-PDT and eplerenone groups were comparable including neurosensory detachment height (217.05 ± 140.25 µm vs 178.05 ± 164.24 µm respectively, = 0.09), best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) (logMAR 0.24 ± 0.13 vs logMAR 0.46 ± 0.37 respectively, = 0.1), and subfoveal choroidal thickness (SFCT) [427.4 ± 117.4 µm vs 456.38 ± 119.25 µm respectively, = 0.45]. HF-PDT resulted in complete resolution of neurosensory detachment in higher proportion of eyes compared to eplerenone at each follow-up visits (3 months: 90% vs 27.7%, = 0; 6 months: 100% vs 61.1%, = 0.003; and 12 months: 100% vs 70%, = 0.03) with a significantly shorter duration to resolution (3.3 ± 0.9 months vs 5.8 ± 3.3 months respectively, = 0.02). Intergroup comparison showed no significant difference between mean BCVA ( = 0.38 at 3 months, = 0.14 at 6 months, and = 0.19 at 12 months). Mean SFCT at 12 months of the two groups differed significantly ( = 0.003) due to increased choroidal thickness of eplerenone group.
HF-PDT has a superior efficacy to achieve faster, greater and long-lasting resolution of subretinal fluid in cCSC compared to eplerenone therapy.
比较半剂量光动力疗法(HF-PDT)和口服依普利酮治疗慢性中心性浆液性脉络膜视网膜病变(cCSC)的长期疗效。
本回顾性对照研究纳入了接受 HF-PDT 或依普利酮治疗的 cCSC 连续患者。分析两组患者治疗后 3 个月、6 个月和 12 个月的治疗结果。
该研究纳入了 HF-PDT 组的 20 只眼(20 例)和依普利酮组的 18 只眼(18 例)。HF-PDT 组和依普利酮组的所有基线参数均无差异,包括神经感觉脱离高度(分别为 217.05 ± 140.25 μm 和 178.05 ± 164.24 μm, = 0.09)、最佳矫正视力(BCVA)(logMAR 0.24 ± 0.13 和 logMAR 0.46 ± 0.37, = 0.1)和中心凹下脉络膜厚度(SFCT)[分别为 427.4 ± 117.4 μm 和 456.38 ± 119.25 μm, = 0.45]。与依普利酮相比,HF-PDT 在每个随访时间点(3 个月:90%对 27.7%, = 0;6 个月:100%对 61.1%, = 0.003;12 个月:100%对 70%, = 0.03)均有更高比例的眼完全缓解神经感觉脱离,且缓解时间更短(分别为 3.3 ± 0.9 个月和 5.8 ± 3.3 个月, = 0.02)。组间比较显示,BCVA 均值在 3 个月时差异无统计学意义( = 0.38),6 个月时差异有统计学意义( = 0.14),12 个月时差异有统计学意义( = 0.19)。两组在 12 个月时的 SFCT 均值差异有统计学意义( = 0.003),这是由于依普利酮组脉络膜厚度增加。
与依普利酮治疗相比,HF-PDT 在实现 cCSC 视网膜下液更快、更大和更持久的消退方面具有更好的疗效。
