Abstract:
Objective To investigate the optical coherence tomography (OCT) characteristics of traumatic maculopathy. Design Retrospective case series. Participants 477 patients (486 eyes) with traumatic maculopathy, who aged from 4 years to 76 years. Method The clinical and OCT data of patients from September 2002 to June 2009 in Beijing Tongren Hospital were reviewed. Main outcome measures Features of the OCT images. Results The major findings by OCT in traumatic maculopathy included: macular hole, sensory retinal detachment, macular hemorrhage, epimacular membrane, choroidal rupture, sensory retinal atrophy, retinal pigment ep-ithelium (RPE) and choroid atrophy. In the early stage after trauma, the common findings with OCT are atrophy of RPE(49.0%), macular hole(24.7%), sensory retinal detachment(26.3%),macular hemorrhage(24.2%) and macular edema(19.2%); in the middle-late stage, atro-phy of RPE (63.0%)and atrophy of sensory retina (36.5%) are the most common changes revealed with OCT. Conclusions OCT is a useful diagnostic modality for imaging traumatic maculopathy. Diverse changes of retina and choroid are usually coexisting by OCT. At-rophy of RPE is the most common change throughout the course. In the early stage, macular hole, sensory retinal detachment, macular hemorrhage and edema are the common changes. In the middle-late stage, atrophy of sensory retina and/or RPE is the dominating change. (Ophthalmol CHN, 2009, 18: 236-238)
