Central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) is one of the main causes of impaired visual function in middle-aged men. CSC is characterized by a thickening of the choroid and hyperpermeability of the choroidal vessels, resulting in serous subretinal fluid. The pathogenesis of CSC is not fully understood. Since the introduction of indocyanine green angiography, the detection of the influence of the vortex veins in CSC, it has been established that the presence of a thick choroid may be caused by congestion of the vortex vein, resulting in new choroidal drainage through a vortex vein anastomosis. The study of vortex venous blood hemodynamics has elucidated the new concept of the pathogenesis of CSC, deepened our understanding of the disease, and provided a theoretical basis for new treatment methods. With a better understanding of the pathogenesis of CSC, we expect to be able to stratify patients at risk in the clinic and evaluate optimized treatment options for patients with CSC

Objective:To observe the changes of chorioidal thickness (ChT) in patients with central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) in different mode of vortic venous dilation.Methods:A prospective cross-sectional observational study. A total of 80 patients with 89 eyes (CSC group) diagnosed in Department of Ophthalmology, General Hospital of Central Theater Command from April to October 2023 were included in the study. Among them, 64 males had 71 eyes and 17 females had 18 eyes. A total of 15 healthy volunteers matched in age and sex were selected as the control group. Among them, 14 men had 26 eyes and one woman had two eyes. The macular region was examined by ultra-wide-angle scanning frequency source optical coherence tomography (OCTA) with BM400K BMizar made by TowardPi (Beijing) Medical Technology Co., LTD. Scanning rate 1 536 A scanning×1 280 B scanning, scanning range 24 mm×20 mm. The accompanying software delineated nine subfields (superotemporal, upper, superonasal, temporal, central, nasal, inferotemporal, lower, inferonasal regions) to record ChT. En-face OCTA mode was utilized to observe the anatomy and functional anastomosis of the vortex veins above and below the choroidal blood layer. Eyes in the CSC group were further categorized into upper-dominant, symmetrical, and lower-dominant groups based on the difference in vortex vein expansion shown in the choroidal layer of the en-face image, with 36, 35, and 18 eyes respectively. Statistical analysis included the use of independent samples t-test or Mann-Whitney test for comparison between two groups, one-way analysis of variance or Kruskal-Wallis H test for comparison between multiple groups, and the χ test or Fisher test for categorical variables. Results:Compared with the control group, ChT in the CSC group was thickened in the foveal area and different areas of the macula, with the greatest difference in the fovea, and the differences were statistically significant ( t=3.345, 5.018, 2.902, 4.667, 7.276, 3.307, 3.868, 4.795, 2.583; P<0.05). Compared with the ChT of the control group, there was no statistically significant difference in the superotemporal, region of the upper-dominant group ( t=1.510, P>0.05); in other regions, the differences were statistically significant ( t=3.207, 5.163, 2.526, 4.310, 6.285, 2.656, 3.812, 2.173; P<0.05). The differences in the foveal area and other areas in the symmetrical group were statistically significant ( t=4.488, 5.554, 3.457, 5.314, 7.256, 3.507, 5.584, 6.019, 2.994; P<0.05). In the superotemporal, and superonasal, regions of the lower dominant group, the differences were not statistically significant ( t=1.150, 1.465; P<0.05); in other regions, the differences were statistically significant ( t=2.278, 4.168, 5.244, 2.783, 5.040, 3.432, 2.095; P<0.05). Conclusion:The dilated distribution of vortex veins on en-face ultra-wide-angle OCTA has a corresponding relationship with ChT. In eyes with CSC, the superior vortex vein drainage system may be the primary route for choroidal drainage.

Objective:To observe the long-term effects of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) drug initiation combined with dexamethasone intravitreal implant (DEX) on the structural integrity of the outer macular region of the eye in patients with macular edema (ME) secondary to central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO).Methods:A retrospective clinical study. From February 2018 to August 2022, 54 patients diagnosed with CRVO combined with ME (CRVO-ME) in Department of Ophthalmology of Central Theater Command General Hospital were included in the study. Among them, there were 30 males and 24 females, all with monocular disease. According to different treatment regiments, patients were divided into anti-VEGF and DEX combination therapy group (initial combination group), anti-VEGF drug monotherapy group (monotherapy group) with 21 eyes and 33 eyes, respectively. Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), optical coherence tomography (OCT) examination were performed in all eyes. The thickness of foveal retina (CRT) and the deficiency length of outer membrane (ELM), ellipsoid band (EZ) and chimaera band (IZ) in the 1 mm macular area were measured by OCT. The initiating combination group was treated with anti-VEGF agents or DEX as assessed on demand (PRN) after the combination therapy, and the monotherapy group received 3+PRN regimen. Relevant examinations were performed at 1 (V1), 6 (V6), 12 (V12) months and observation cut-off or the last visit (Vf) after treatment using the same equipment before treatment. The deletion length of ELM, EZ and IZ in V1, V6, V12 and Vf after treatment were compared between the two groups. Repeated measurement ANOVA was used to compare BCVA, CRT and deletion length of ELM, EZ and IZ at different follow-up times. Spearman rank correlation test was used to analyze the correlation between the two groups of continuous variables.Results:The follow-up time of patients in the initial combination group and monotherapy group was (18.05±5 .66) and (21.90±10.80) months, respectively, with no statistical significance ( F=13.430, P=0.229). Compared with baseline, the deletion lengths of ELM, EZ and IZ were significantly improved ( F=11.848, 10.880, 29.236), BCVA was increased ( F=10.541) and CRT was decreased ( F=52.278) in the initial combination group and the monotherapy group at different follow-up times after treatment. The differences were statistically significant ( P<0.001). At V1, EZ and IZ deletion lengths were (344.10±413.03), (593.33±372.96) μm and (354.71±321.75), (604.85±385.77) μm in the initial combination group and monotherapy group, respectively. The improvement of EZ and IZ deletion lengths in the initial combination group was better than that in the single drug group, and the difference was statistically significant ( F=5.272, 6.106; P=0.026, 0.017). The CRT of the initial combination group and the monotherapy group were (248.86±59.99) and (314.72±214.91) μm, respectively, and the CRT of the initial combination group was significantly lower than that of the monotherapy group, with statistical significance ( F=6.102, P=0.017). At V6, V12 and Vf, the deletion length of ELM, EZ and IZ and BCVA and CRT showed no statistical significance ( P>0.05). Correlation analysis showed that ELM, EZ, IZ were positively correlated with BCVA and CRT in the initial combination group and monotherapy group ( P<0.001). In V6, V12 and Vf, the number of anti-VEGF drug injections in the initial combination group and monotherapy group was (2.67±1.32), (4.43±2.27), (6.05±3.51), (4.58±0.90), (7.33±1.93), (11.33±6.10) times, respectively. The number of injections in the initial combination group was significantly lower than that in the monotherapy group, and the difference was statistically significant ( F=5.150, 0.646, 3.433; P<0.001). Conclusions:The improvement of BCVA and CRT in the initial combination group is similar to that in the monotherapy group. Compared with the monotherapy group, EZ and IZ deletion are improved more significantly in the initial combination group, and CRT decreased more rapidly and significantly. The initial combination group receives fewer anti-VEGF injections than the monocular group.
