Clinical effect of combined anterior and posterior segment surgery for vitreoretinal diseases with cataract
Journal Title: Guoji Yanke Zazhi - Year 2018, Vol 18, Issue 11
Abstract
AIM: To observe the clinical effect of combined anterior and posterior segment surgery in the treatment of vitreoretinal diseases with cataract and the influence on visual acuity recovery and complications after surgery. <p>METHODS: The clinical data of 94 patients(94 eyes)with vitreoretinal diseases complicated with cataract treated in the hospital during the period from January 2016 to December 2017 were collected retrospectively. Fifty of them treated by vitrectomy combined with phacoemulsification were included in Group A, and the other 44 cases treated by one-stage vitrectomy and two-stage phacoemulsification were included in Group B. The improvement rate of visual acuity, best corrected visual acuity(BCVA), changes of intraocular pressure(IOP)and incidence of complications after surgery were compared between the two groups. <p>RESULTS: There was no significant difference in the improvement rate of visual acuity between Group A and Group B(<i>P</i>>0.05). The logMAR BCVA of Group B at the last follow-up was significantly better than that of Group A(0.59±0.17 <i>vs</i> 0.78±0.28, <i>P</i><0.05), but there was no significant difference in IOP between the two groups before and after surgery(<i>P</i>>0.05). The incidence of anterior chamber inflammatory response in Group A was significantly higher than that in Group B(52% <i>vs</i> 20%, <i>P</i><0.05), but there was no significant difference between the two groups in other complications, such as transient high IOP or rubeosis iridis(<i>P</i>>0.05). <p>CONCLUSION: Both concurrent anterior and posterior segment surgery and stage surgery are safe and effective in the treatment of vitreoretinal diseases with cataract. The surgical field of the former is clearer and it is easier to operate while the latter can alleviate the anterior chamber inflammatory response, with certain advantages in improvement of postoperative visual acuity. The appropriate surgical method should be chosen according to the patient's condition.
