RESUMEN

PURPOSE: To recognize prognostic factors for better final visual acuity (VA) in patients presenting with submacular hemorrhage (SMH) secondary to exudative age-related macular degeneration. METHODS: This retrospective study included patients who presented to a tertiary ophthalmology department between 2012 and 2019 with SMH and were treated by pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) or injection of tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) with pneumatic displacement. Baseline characteristics included demographic data, VA and optical coherence tomography (OCT) characteristics of the SMH. Patients were divided into groups by improvement of at least 2 lines in BCVA (best corrected visual acuity), and by having a final BCVA better than 20/200. RESULTS: Forty-three eyes of 43 patients were included. Mean age was 86.72 ± 7.18. Prognostic factors for final VA better than 20/200 included better VA at presentation (1.25 vs 1.90 logMAR, p < 0.001), smaller area of SMH in the infra-red image (19.47 mm2 vs 38.45 mm2, p = 0.024), and lower height of SMH as measured by OCT (713.5 µm vs 962.5 µm, p = 0.03). Third of the patients improved in ≥2 lines from presentation, all in the group of the pneumatic and TPA displacement. CONCLUSION: Smaller SMHs with good VA at presentation have a better chance for improvement and result in a better final VA. These patients may benefit the most from pneumatic displacement of the SMH with intravitreal tPA and gas.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: To evaluate the effects of intravitreal injection of tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) and gas vs. pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) surgery as first-line treatment for subretinal hemorrhage. METHODS: Retrospective study of 107 adults treated for subretinal hemorrhage at a tertiary hospital during 2008-2019; 51 received injection of tPA and gas and 56 underwent PPV. RESULTS: No between-group differences were found in age and sex, medical history, use of anticoagulants or antiplatelets, history of ocular surgeries, and previous use of intravitreal anti-VEGF. Overall follow-up time was longer in the PPV group (median 4.9 vs 3.28 years, p = 0.005). The hemorrhage was displaced in a similar percentage of patients in the tPA-and-gas group (n = 40, 78.4%) and the PPV group (n = 45, 80.4%) (p = 0.816). Approximately 80% of patients in the tPA-and-gas group were able to forgo PPV surgery. Visual acuity (in LogMAR) was similar in the two groups prior to the diagnosis of subretinal hemorrhage but better in the tPA-and-gas group at the end of follow-up (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Injection of gas and tPA can be done immediately following diagnosis of subretinal hemorrhage as an office procedure. Visual acuity outcome is good, with a high rate of blood displacement. About 20% of patients might require additional PPV as secondary intervention.
