Q

Initially termed retrolental fibroplasia

vasoproliferative disorder of the eye affecting premature neonates -

Characterized by local ischemia and subsequent development of retinal neovascularization
• A disease of pre-term infants where the immature retina undergoes changes related to / caused by ischemia and insufficient retinal vascularization leading to a wide spectrum of abnormalities ranging from mild peripheral retinal ischemia, vessel tortuosity, to severe exudative and tractional retinal detachments

A

ROP

Q

Pathophy of ROP

A

Biglang napanganak si baby na premature pa ang retina, magugulat yun and retinal vessels will constrict, so ischemia will occur. Then, VEGF will release from the ischemic retina. Then magkakaroon ng new vessels.

DEFINITE AND WELL ACCEPTED RISK FACTORS ROP (3)

A

. • Low gestational age
 The younger the patient, the more prone. Yung pinanganak
ng 32 weeks and lower at risk yan. • Low birth weight
 1,500 grams and lower at risk yun
• Supplemental oxygen delivery
 Yung mga pinanganak, di maka.hinga, binigyan ng oxygen at
di maxado na.titrate

17
Q

Stages of RoP?

A

Stage 1 - demarcation line between posterior vascular and peripheral avascular retina
Stage 2 - elevated ridge

Stage 3 - extraretinal neovascularization
Stage 4a - subtotal retinal detachment not involving macula Stage 4b - subtotal retinal detachment involving macula

Stage 5 - total retinal detachment

18
Q

A more florid form of ROP
• Increasing dilation and tortuosity of vessels
• Iris vascular engorgement
• Pupillary rigidity
• Vitreous haze indicating progressive vascular incompetence

A

Plus disease

Plus disease means lang that the blood vessels are dilated and tortuous, engorged vessels ng iris and the pupils do not dilate, its very rigid and hazy na ang vitrous.

19
Q

Vascular abnormalities that are insufficient for the diagnosis of PLUS disease
• More arterial tortuosity and venous dilatation than normal

A

“Pre-Plus” Disease

20
Q
  • Rapidly progressing, severe form of ROP
  • Usually progresses to Stage 5 ROP if untreated
  • Characteristics:
  • Posterior location
  • Prominence of plus disease
  • Ill-defined nature of the retinopathy
A

Aggressive Posterior ROP

21
Q

Current Screening Guidelines of ROP in the ph

A

Less than or equal to 32 weeks less than or equal to 1500g

least 2 dilated funduscopic examinations using binocular indirect ophthalmoscopy for all infants with:
o birthweightof<1500grams
o gestationalageof32weeksorless
o selected infants between 1500 and 2000 grams with unstable clinical course (high risk infants)
o gestational age > 32 weeks with an unstable clinical course who are believed to be at high risk by their attending pediatrician or neonatologist

22
Q

Recommend screening guidelines by the ophthalmologists

A

<35 weeks GA and/or <2,000 grams BW

23
Q

cannot pick up everything esp Zone 3 lesions
• Is not necessary for ROP screening
• Useful for mass screening
• Useful to document, teach residents and fellows , inform
parents
• Useful for follow-up esp if fundus is difficult to visualize
• Some models are capable of fundus fluorescein angiography

A

Ret cam

24
Q

Means of ablation?

A

Cryotherapy

• Laser Indirect Ophthalmoscopy (LIO)

• Laser photocoagulation (Diode laser with an indirect

25
Q

Criteria for cryotherapy for ROP

A

Zone I or II ROP, stage 3 more than 5 contiguous or cumulative hours with plus disease

• Treatment is mandatory, risk of progression to retinal detachment is 50% if left untreated

26
Q

Criteria for ablation new threshold

A

•
Early Treatment of ROP
o Type I ROP: perform retinal abation
▪ Zone I, any stage with plus disease
▪ Zone I, stage 3 without plus disease
▪ Zone II, stage 2 or 3 with plus disease
o Type II ROP: consider treatment only if they progress to type I
▪ Zone I, stage 1 or 2 without plus disease ▪ Zone II, stage 3 without plus disease

27
Q

Anti vegf in ROP

A

Bevacizumab ( Avastin)
• Ranibizumab ( Lucentis)
• Aflibercept ( Eylea)

28
Q

Uses of anti VEGF in rop

A

• In eyes with APROP
• In eyes with zone 1 ROP (allow vascularization to develop
before retinal ablation)
• In eyes with media opacity due to anterior segment
neovascularization/ synecheae
• Adjunct to laser treatment or prior to vitrectomy in APROP
• Less myopia/astigmatism*
• Eliminate visual field loss due to retinal laser ablation

29
Q

Disadvantages in using Anti-VEGF

A
  • Possible systemic complications
  • Infection
  • Trauma to the lens
  • Temporary effect
  • Contraction of membranes

Q

REMAINS THE ONLY

WELL-ESTABLISHED THERAPY FOR THRESHOLD ROP
