Comparison of posterior hyaloid assessment using preoperative optical coherence tomography and intraoperative triamcinolone acetonide staining during vitrectomy
(2021) In Clinical Ophthalmology 15. p.3939-3945- Abstract
Purpose: To compare the specificity of diagnosing posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) using preoperative optical coherence tomography (OCT) versus intraoperative triamcinolone acetonide (TA) staining in patients undergoing vitrectomy. Patients and Methods: This retrospective cohort study included patients undergoing pars plana vitrectomy for diverse retinal pathologies. Intraoperatively, surgeons evaluated the posterior hyaloid status with TA staining and compared it with preoperative OCT findings. Results: One hundred six patients underwent intraoperative assessments of posterior hyaloid status, with 72% (76/106) of the eyes showing positive staining. Sixty-two patients had also undergone preoperative OCT. Of the patients diagnosed... (More)
Purpose: To compare the specificity of diagnosing posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) using preoperative optical coherence tomography (OCT) versus intraoperative triamcinolone acetonide (TA) staining in patients undergoing vitrectomy. Patients and Methods: This retrospective cohort study included patients undergoing pars plana vitrectomy for diverse retinal pathologies. Intraoperatively, surgeons evaluated the posterior hyaloid status with TA staining and compared it with preoperative OCT findings. Results: One hundred six patients underwent intraoperative assessments of posterior hyaloid status, with 72% (76/106) of the eyes showing positive staining. Sixty-two patients had also undergone preoperative OCT. Of the patients diagnosed with PVD on preoperative OCT, 50% (15/30) showed positive TA staining intraoperatively. The sensitivity of preoperative OCT assessment was 83.3%, and its specificity was 65.9%. Conclusion: Preoperative OCT imaging is associated with lower sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing PVD when compared to intraoperative TA staining.
