Abstract:
Objective:To observe the ocular clinical features and efficacy of young infants with incontinentia pigmenti (IP).Methods:A retrospective study. Clinical data of 18 young infants with IP aged 0-3 months in the Department of Ophthalmology of Henan Children's Hospital from October 2017 to February 2019 were collected in this study. All patients were underwent fundus examination under topical anesthesia or general anesthesia. Among them, 9 cases were underwent genetic testing. Patients were determined whether to treated with retinal laser photocoagulation (LIO) or intravitreal conbercept (IVC, 0.25 mg/0.025 ml) according to the condition of eyes. The followed-up time ranged from 4months to 43 months. The ocular clinical features and treatment were observed.Results:There were 1 male and 17 females of the 18 patients. The age of first visit were 1.2±1.0 months (2 d-3 months). All cases had typical skin lesions, 4 cases had neurological symptoms, 10 cases had tooth abnormalities, and 4 cases had cicatricial alopecia. Among the 9 cases that were underwent genetic testing, 5 cases were deleted in exons 4-10 of the IKBKG gene and 1 case were a heterozygous mutation c.1124delT in exon 9 of the IKBKG gene. Among the 36 eyes, 21 eyes of 13 cases with incontinentia pigmenti-associated ocular diseases were all retinopathy (58.3%,21/36). Retinopathy of 9 cases were asymmetrical (69.2%,9/13). Among the 21 eyes, 3 eyes were simple retinal pigment abnormalities (14.3%,3/21) and 18 cases had retinal vascular lesion (85.7%, 18/21). Among the 36 eyes, 8 eyes were treated; 4 eyes were underwent LIO; 3 eyes were treated with IVC; 1 eye was treated with LIO combined with IVC. They were all improved significantly after the operation without serious complications. 1 eye with retinal detachment did not undergo surgical treatment due to guardian reasons. Perceptual exotropia and eyeball atrophy was found during the follow-up. Conclusions:The onset of IP-related ocular anomalies is early. The early anomalies were mainly retinal vascular abnormalities. Treatment in early time is effective.
