Aim: To study the long-term outcomes of optic disc pit maculopathy. Methods: Electronic medical records of 154 patients with optic disc pit were reviewed and 50 patients with optic disc pit maculopathy who met the study criteria were included in the study. Demographic profile of patients, along with clinical characteristics, optical coherence tomography (OCT) features and change in best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was recorded. Patients were treated either by observation, barrage laser alone or pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with optional additional surgical procedures. The primary outcome measures were the change in BCVA and resolution of fluid on OCT. Results: The mean age of patients was 29.96 years (3–62 years) with a follow-up of 27.16 months. The mean baseline BCVA in observation, laser and vitrectomy group was log MAR 0.94, 0.76 and 0.87 and final BCVA was log MAR 0.9, 0.67 and 0.46, respectively. There was a statistically significant improvement in the final BCVA and reduction in subretinal fluid with resolution of the schisis cavity in vitrectomy group than in other groups. On regression analysis significant association was found between final BCVA with baseline BCVA ( R2 = 0.815, p = 0.002), use of C3 F8 endotempanode ( p = 0.004) ILM peeling ( p = 0.012) and use of triamcinolone (TA; p = 0.003). No significant association was found with juxtapapillary endolaser ( p = 0.062). Conclusions: In patients with disc pit maculopathy, PPV lead to better functional and anatomical outcomes as compared to laser or observation alone. Use of surgical adjuvants like ILM peeling, TA and C3F8 tamponade improved the outcomes, unlike juxtapapillary endolaser treatment.

Anatomical Success

AimTo compare the anatomical and visual outcomes of vitrectomy with internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling alone versus inverted ILM flap to plug the pit versus autologous scleral plug for the treatment of optic disc pit maculopathy (ODP-M).MethodsThis retrospective study included 23 patients (23 eyes) who underwent 25G pars plana vitrectomy, ILM peeling and gas tamponade. While the pit was not plugged in group 1 (n=8), inverted ILM flap and autologous scleral flap were used to plug the pit in group 2 (n=7) and group 3 (n=8), respectively. Complete anatomical success was defined as total resolution of subretinal fluid (SRF) and macular schisis on optical coherence tomography while visual success was defined as a gain of at least 2 Snellen lines 1 year after surgery.ResultsBaseline characteristics were similar in all three groups. Mean central foveal thickness and SRF decreased in all three groups (p<0.05). Complete anatomical success was achieved in 25.0%, 85.7% and 87.5% eyes while visual success was achieved in 12.5%, 28.6% and 12.5% eyes in groups 1, 2 and 3, respectively. One eye (4.3%) in group 2 developed full-thickness macular hole at 1 month post-surgery. After complete resolution, there was no recurrence of fluid.ConclusionOPD-M has a better surgical outcome if the pit is plugged. Both inverted ILM flap and autologous scleral plug are equally efficacious adjuncts to plug the pit.

A 13 years old previously operated with 25-G pars plana vitrectomy with double internal limiting membrane peel and juxtapapillary endolaser with SF 6 gas tamponade for optic disc pit-associated maculopathy (ODP-M), presented with recurrence after 9 months of successful primary surgery. Three 25-G sclerotomies were made and Human Amniotic Membrane Graft was tucked into the optic disc pit (ODP), the position of the graft was confirmed with intraoperative ocular coherence tomography. Subretinal fluid rapidly resolved within 48 h and best-corrected visual acuity improved to 0.5 LogMAR after 1 week. During the follow-up period of 12 months, no episodes of recurrence or reduction vision or adverse reactions were noted.

Purpose: To report outcomes of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) combined with internal limiting membrane (ILM) stuffing technique in patients with optic disc pit associated maculopathy (ODP-M). Methods: Data including best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), central macular thickness (CMT), foveal center point thickness (FCP), and maximum height of fluid (max_fluid) (intraretinal or subretinal) were collected from the medical records of the patients. Results: Six eyes of six patients with a mean age of 28.0 ± 17.68 years (range: 9–53 year) underwent PPV + ILM plug surgery. The mean follow-up duration was 25.62 ± 26.11 months (range: 11.80–78.00 month) duration. The mean BCVA increased from 1.25 ± 1.04 logMAR (20/355, Snellen equivalent) to 0.86 ± 1.09 logMAR (20/144, Snellen equivalent) at last follow-up ( p = 0.043). Compared to baseline, CMT, FCP, and max_fluid significantly decreased at all visits after the surgery ( p < 0.05 for all visits). At last follow-up, 66.6% of the eyes (four eyes) showed complete resolution of fluid at a mean of 5.25 ± 4.99 months (range: 1–12 months) after the surgery. Conclusion: PPV with ILM plug seemed to be an effective surgical technique in ODP-M. Studies with longer follow-up and higher number of patients are needed to confirm our results.

Background: Previous studies have shown that epiretinal membranes (ERMs) may be associated with abnormal outer retinal anatomy. However, long-term morphological and functional results of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with ERM and internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling in eyes with central bouquet (CB) alterations have not yet been investigated. Methods: In a retrospective, consecutive study all patients underwent best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) testing and spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) before and after a mean of 20 months (range 3–70 months) postoperatively. CB abnormalities and ERMs were classified according to Govetto’s staging systems. Results: Of the 67 eyes, 22 (34%) showed CB abnormalities at baseline. The mean BCVA increased from 0.42 at baseline to 0.20 LogMAR at final follow-up (p < 0.001). Neither ERM stage (p = 0.06) nor CB stage (p = 0.939) at baseline were significant predictors of vision improvement following surgery. Conclusions: Our results show that baseline BCVA, but not classification of CB changes and ERM at baseline, seems to be a useful predictor for functional outcomes following PPV with ERM and ILM peeling in the long-term.

BackgroundSnake bite continues to be a significant cause of acute kidney injury (AKI) in India. There is paucity of data regarding long-term outcomes of such patients. In this study, we aim to assess the prognosis and long-term renal outcomes of such patients.MethodsWe analysed the hospital records of snake envenomation-induced AKI from January 2015 to December 2018. Predictors of in-hospital mortality were assessed. Survivors were advised to visit follow-up clinic to assess their kidney function.ResultsThere were 769 patients with evidence of envenomation and of them, 159 (20.7%) had AKI. There were 112 (70.4%) males. Mortality occurred in 9.4% of patients. Logistic regression analysis identified shock (OR 51.949, 95% CI 4.297 to 628.072) and thrombocytopenia (OR 27.248, 95% CI 3.276 to 226.609) as predictors of mortality. Forty-three patients attended the follow-up. The mean follow-up duration was 30.4±15.23 months. Adverse renal outcomes (eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m2 or new-onset hypertension (HTN) or pre-HTN or urine protein creatinine ratio >0.3) occurred in 48.8% of patients. Older age (mean age (years) 53.3 vs 42.8, p=0.004) and longer duration on dialysis (median duration (days) 11.5 vs 5, p=0.024) were significantly associated with adverse renal outcomes.ConclusionsThe incidence of AKI in snake envenomation was 20.7%. The presence of shock and thrombocytopenia were associated with mortality. Adverse renal outcomes occurred in 48.8% of patients in the long term.
