Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the anatomic outcome after lens-sparing vitrectomy (LSV) or scleral buckle (SB) for stage 4 retinopathy of prematurity (ROP).Methods The clinical data of 39 infants (50 eyes) with 4a (20 eyes) or 4b (30 eyes) were retrospectively analyzed.The age ranged from two to 18 months,with a mean of (6.0±3.4) months.The gestational age ranged from 26 to 33 weeks,with a mean of (30.0±1.6) weeks.The birth weight ranged from 800 to 1900 g,with a mean of (1404.5±237.6) g.Nineteen eyes underwent SB and 31 eyes underwent LSV.Follow-up ranged from 6 to 84 months,with a mean of (26.0±21.7) months.The anatomical and refractive results were reviewed at the final follow-up.Results The anatomic success of SB was 100.0% (19 of 19 eyes) and that of LSV was 87.1% (27 of 31eyes).Among the patients in whom treatment failed,4 were in the LSV group (4/31,12.9%).The buckles of 5 eyes (5/19,26.3%) were removed.At the end of the follow-up,the mean myopic refraction was (-4.46±2.49) diopters (ranging from -1.25 to 11.00 diopters) in the LSV group,and ( -3.21±1.96) diopters (ranging from -1.25 to 9.25 diopters) in the SB group.There was no significant difference between two groups (F=2.76,P=0.103).Conclusion The anatomic outcome after LSV or SB for stage 4 ROP was excellent.
