Comparison of Inverted ILM-Stuffing Technique and ILM Peeling Alone for Optic Disc Pit-Associated Maculopathy: Long-Term Results.
Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers & Imaging Retina 2018 December 2
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: To evaluate long-term outcomes of inverted internal limiting membrane (ILM) stuffing into the optic disc pit for optic disc pit maculopathy (ODP-M) compared with vitrectomy with ILM peeling alone.
PATIENTS AND METHODS: Twelve eyes of 12 patients who underwent vitrectomy for ODP-M and followed up more than 12 months were included. We retrospectively analyzed outcomes of inverted ILM flap stuffing into ODP (group 1, n = 6) with ILM peeling alone (group 2, n = 6).
RESULTS: At 12 months, both groups showed significant improvement in best-corrected visual acuity and central macular thickness. On comparison, significantly faster resolution of maculoschisis was found in group 1 compared with group 2 (P = .012).
CONCLUSIONS: Pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with ILM peeling and PPV with inverted ILM stuffing are effective treatment modalities for ODP-M, with inverted ILM stuffing showing faster resolution of maculoschisis. [Ophthalmic Surg Lasers Imaging Retina. 2018;49:e226-e232.].
