- Correlation between cognitive impairment and retinal neural loss assessed by swept-source optical coherence tomography in patients with mild cognitive impairment(2019) ALMEIDA, Ana L. M.; PIRES, Leopoldo A.; FIGUEIREDO, Evelyn A.; COSTA-CUNHA, Luciana V. F.; ZACHARIAS, Leandro C.; PRETI, Rony C.; MONTEIRO, Mario L. R.; CUNHA, Leonardo P.Introduction: We compared peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer and macular thickness measurements in patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and control subjects using swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT). We also assessed the relationship between SS-OCT measurements and the severity of cognitive impairment. Methods: Peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer and macular thickness were measured in 23 patients and 24 control subjects using SS-OCT. Cognitive status was assessed using the Mini-Mental State Examination, the Montreal Cognitive Assessment, and the Pfeffer Questionnaire. Results: Most inner retinal layer thickness parameters were significantly smaller in patients with MCI, especially macular ganglion cell complex thickness measurements. Mini-Mental State Examination and Montreal Cognitive Assessment findings were significantly correlated with most macular thickness parameters. Discussion: The SS-OCT-measured inner retinal layers of patients with MCI displayed thinning, especially in the central macular area. SS-OCT technology can provide useful information on ocular involvement patterns and holds promise as an ocular biomarker in this patient population. (C) 2019 The Authors.
- Homonymous quadrantic macular ganglion cell complex loss as a sign of trans-synaptic degeneration from occipital lobe lesion(2019) HOKAZONO, K.; MONTEIRO, M.L. RibeiroPurpose: to describe a patient with visual field (VF) defect from an occipital lobe lesion that was found to have macular ganglion cells complex (GCC) quadrantic reduction without significant peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) loss on optical coherence tomography (OCT). To emphasize that macular GCC loss may be the major ocular manifestation of trans-synaptic optic pathway degeneration in occipital lobe lesions. Observations: A 15-year-old female was investigated after a VF examination revealed a right homonymous inferior quadrantanopia. Fundoscopic examination was completely normal as were the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness measurements on OCT. Macular thickness measurements however, revealed superior homonymous quadrantic GCL reduction evidencing retinal neuronal loss in direct correspondence with her VF defect. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a localized left occipital lobe gliotic lesion as the explanation for her VF defect. Conclusions and Importance: Small post-geniculate optic pathway lesions may lead to retrograde trans-synaptic degeneration that can be detected on OCT-measured macular GCL measurements despite normal peripapillary RNFL estimates. Awareness of such occurrence in important to avoid diagnostic confusion with other anterior visual pathway diseases. © 2018
bookPart Cefaleias Primárias(2019) ANDRADE, Daniel Ciampi Araujo de; FORTINI, Ida; SIQUEIRA, Silvia Regina Dowgan Tesseroli de; SIQUEIRA, José Tadeu Tesseroli de; PINTO, Lauro Figueira; TEIXEIRA, Manoel Jacobsen; MONTEIRO, Mário Luis; FORMIGONI, Gilberto- Ultrastructural changes detected using swept-source optical coherence tomography in severe vitreopapillary traction: a case report(2019) CUNHA, Leonardo Provetti; COSTA-CUNHA, Luciana Virginia Ferreira; COSTA, Carolina Ferreira; MONTEIRO, Mario Luiz RibeiroVitreopapillaiy traction is an uncommon condition characterized by strong adhesion and the traction of the posterior hyaloid onto the optic disc and peripapillary retina, leading to optic disc elevation and visual loss. An 85-year-old man presented with a 6-month history of slow, progressive visual loss in the left eye along with optic disc edema. Swept-source optical coherence tomography B-scans revealed circumpapillaiy anterior-posterior persistent traction of dense vitreous strands onto the optic disc. Visual field examination demonstrated mild, generalized, diffuse sensitivity loss and blind-spot enlargement. A 25-gauge posterior vitrectomy was performed with posterior hyaloid separation from the optic disc, resulting in significant anatomical and visual improvement. In conclusion, swept-source optical coherence tomography aids in understanding the mechanism underlying visual loss in vitreopapillary traction. Moreover, posterior vitrectomy can effectively promote anatomical and visual improvements in these cases.
- SURGICAL REMOVAL OF EPIRETINAL MEMBRANE WITH AND WITHOUT REMOVAL OF INTERNAL LIMITING MEMBRANE Comparative Study of Visual Acuity, Features of Optical Coherence Tomography, and Recurrence Rate(2019) NOVELLI, Fernando J. De; GOLDBAUM, Mauro; MONTEIRO, Mario L. R.; AGGIO, Fabio Bom; TAKAHASHI, Walter Y.Purpose: To study and compare visual acuity, foveal thickness, outer limiting layer, ellipsoid zone, and recurrence rate in patients undergoing removal of the epiretinal membrane with and without the removal of the internal limiting membrane (ILM). Methods: Sixty-three patients who had the epiretinal membrane removed by a single surgeon were randomly assigned into 2 groups: Group 1 without additional removal of the ILM and Group 2 with removal of the ILM. Patients were followed up and evaluated at the first month, third month, and sixth month, postoperatively. Results: Patients from both groups had a gradual improvement in their vision over time. There was no significant difference in the improvement in visual acuity between the two groups. About tomographic assessment of alterations, no significant differences were found between the groups; however, Group 1 had a higher relapse rate (17%) compared with Group 2 (3.6%) (P = 0.09). Conclusion: Epiretinal membrane removal with and without ILM peeling shows similar functional and anatomical improvements, but the group in which the ILM was not removed seemed to have a higher recurrence rate.
- Effect of panretinal photocoagulation on the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer in diabetic retinopathy patients(2019) ZACHARIAS, Leandro Cabral; AZEVEDO, Breno M. S.; ARAUJO, Rafael B. de; CIONGOLI, Marina R.; HATANAKA, Marcelo; PRETI, Rony C.; MONTEIRO, Mario Luiz RibeiroOBJECTIVES: To determine the effect of panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) on the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) in nonglaucomatous patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR). METHODS: This is a prospective, single center, observational study. Thirty-eight eyes of 26 diabetic patients underwent PRP for proliferative diabetic retinopathy. Peripapillary RNFL thickness was measured using scanning laser polarimetry (SLP) with variable corneal compensation (GDx VCC; by Carl Zeiss Meditec, Dublin, CA) and spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) (Heidelberg Spectralis, Carlsbad, USA) at baseline and 12 months after PRP was performed. RESULTS: Thirty-eight eyes of 26 patients (15 female) with a mean age of 53.7 years (range 26 to 74 years) were recruited. No significant difference was found among all RNFL thickness parameters tested by GDx VCC software (p=0.952, 0.464 and 0.541 for temporal-superior-nasal-inferior-temporal (TSNIT) average, superior average, inferior average, respectively). The nerve fiber indicator (NFI) had a nonsignificant increase (p=0.354). The OCT results showed that the average RNFL thickness (360 degrees measurement) decreased nonsignificantly from 97.2 mm to 96.0 mm at 1 year post-PRP (p=0.469). There was no significant difference when separately analyzing all the peripapillary sectors (nasal superior, temporal superior, temporal, temporal inferior, nasal inferior and nasal thickness). CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that PRP, as performed in our study, does not cause significant changes in peripapillary RNFL in diabetic PDR patients after one year of follow-up.
- Outer Retinal Dysfunction on Multifocal Electroretinography May Help Differentiating Multiple Sclerosis From Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder(2019) FILGUEIRAS, Thiago G.; OYAMADA, Maria K.; PRETI, Rony C.; APOSTOLOS-PEREIRA, Samira L.; CALLEGARO, Dagoberto; MONTEIRO, Mario L. R.Purpose: To evaluate the intermediate and outer retina of patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) using OCT and multifocal electroretinography (mf-ERG). Methods: Patients with MS (n = 30), NMOSD (n = 30), and healthy controls (n = 29) underwent visual field (VF), OCT, and mt-ERG testing. The eyes were distributed into 5 groups: MS with or without history of ON (MS+ON, MS-ON), NMOSD with or without ON (NMOSD+ON, NMOSD-ON), and controls. The thickness of the macular retinal nerve fiber layer (mRNFL), ganglion cell layer (GCL), inner plexiform layer (IPL), inner nuclear layer, outer plexiform layer, outer nuclear layer, and photoreceptor layer was measured. mf-ERG P1 and N1 responses were registered and grouped in 3 sets of rings. The groups were compared using GEE models, and effect size (ES) calculated. Results: Compared to controls, GCL and IPL thickness was significantly smaller in MS+ON (both p < 0.01), MS-ON (p < 0.01 and p = 0.015, respectively), NMOSD+ON (both p < 0.01) and NMOSD-ON (p = 0.03 and p = 0.018, respectively). ES was >0.80. mRNFL was smaller in three of the above groups (p < 0.01, p < 0.001, and p = 0.028; ES > 0.80) but not in MS-ON eyes (p = 0.18). No significant difference was observed for the remaining layers. Compared to controls, P1 and N1 peak times were shorter in MS (p-values in the range 0.049-0.002, ES < 0.50; and 0.049-0.010; ES < 0.50, respectively) but not in NMOSD. These abnormalities were strongly correlated with intermediate and outer retinal layer thickness. Conclusions: mf-ERG data suggest outer retinal abnormalities in MS, but not in NMOSD. Our results may help understand how the two conditions differ regarding retinal damage.
- The effect of panretinal photocoagulation on confocal laser scanning ophthalmoscopy and stereo photographic parameters of optic disk topography in patients with diabetic retinopathy(2019) AZEVEDO, Breno Marques da Silva; ARAUJO, Rafael Barbosa de; CIONGOLI, Marina R.; HATANAKA, Marcelo; PRETI, Rony Carlos; MONTEIRO, Mario Luiz Ribeiro; ZACHARIAS, Leandro CabralPurpose: To determine the effect of panretinal photocoagulation on optic disk topographic parameters in non-glaucomatous patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy. Methods: This was a prospective, single-center, observational study. Thirty-eight eyes of 26 patients with diabetes underwent panretinal photocoagulation for proliferative diabetic retinopathy. Stereoscopic disk photographs and optic nerve head parameters were evaluated using the Zeiss fundus camera and the confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscope (Heidelberg Retinal Tomograph), respectively, at baseline and 12 months after the completion of panretinal photocoagulation. Results: Thirty-eight eyes of 26 patients (15 female) with a mean age of 53.7 (range 26-74) years were recruited. No significant difference was found between the stereo photography determined mean horizontal and vertical cup-to-disk ratio before and after panretinal photocoagulation treatment (p=0.461 and 0.839, respectively). The global values of the optic nerve head parameters analyzed with the HRT3 showed no significant change from baseline to 12 months, including the disk area, cup area, rim area, cup volume, rim volume, cup-to-disk area ratio, linear cup-to-disk ratio, mean cup depth, maximum cup depth, cup shape measure, height variation contour, mean retinal nerve fiber layer thickness, and cross-sectional area. Conclusion: Our results suggest that panretinal photocoagulation does not cause morphological optic disk changes in patients with diabetic proliferative retinopathy after 1 year of follow-up.
