Abstract:
AIM: To evaluate the application effectiveness of the 3D surgical video system and intraoperative optical coherence tomography(OCT)in idiopathic epiretinal membrane vitrectomy.METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 61 patients(61 eyes)with idiopathic epiretinal membrane at our hospital from January 2023 to October 2023. The patients were divided into two groups based on the surgical methods: with 31 patients(31 eyes)who underwent surgery using the 3D surgical video system and intraoperative OCT technology in 3D group, and 30 patients(30 eyes)underwent surgery using the Resight non-contact wide-angle lens system in traditional surgery group. Surgical time, membrane peeling time were recorded, followed-up for 6 mo, post-operative best-corrected visual acuity(BCVA), intraocular pressure(IOP), central macular thickness(CMT), and complications were analyzed for the two groups.RESULTS:All patients successfully underwent surgery without experiencing serious intraoperative complications such as major retinal hemorrhage, retinal tears, or retinal detachment. Additionally, no postoperative complications such as endophthalmitis or secondary glaucoma occurred. The surgical duration and membrane peeling time in the 3D group were significantly shorter than those in the traditional surgery group(20.13±1.59 vs 25.97±2.09 min; 3.74±0.89 vs 8.13±1.72 min, respectively; both P<0.001). There were no significant differences in BCVA and CMT between preoperative and 1-month postoperative values for both groups of patients(both P>0.008). However, both BCVA and CMT improved significantly at 3 and 6 mo postoperatively compared to preoperative levels(both P<0.008). At 6 mo postoperatively, the BCVA in the 3D group was significantly better than that in the traditional surgery group(P=0.007). There were no significant differences in CMT or IOP between the two groups at any postoperative time point(all P>0.05).CONCLUSION: Both the 3D surgical video system and the traditional surgical group can treat idiopathic epiretinal membrane, but the 3D surgical video system has advantages in shortening the surgical time, improving surgical efficiency, and enhancing the precision of surgical steps during surgery with the assistance of intraoperative OCT.
