目的:探讨经瞳孔热疗(TTT)治疗前后脉络膜血管瘤(CCH)的扫频源光学相干断层扫描(SS-OCT)和SS-OCT血管造影(SS-OCTA)的表现。
方法:评估了2018年9月至2022年12月期间使用SS-OCT/SS-OCTA进行CCH成像的21只眼的临床记录。
结果:CCH中的SS-OCT检查显示圆顶状外观(100%),脉络膜阴影(100%),脉络膜结构扩张(100%),视网膜下液(66.7%),视网膜内水肿/裂隙(33.3%),视网膜色素上皮(RPE)萎缩(19.0%),超反射点(19.0%),和视网膜前膜(4.8%)。在所有眼睛的SS-OCTA上的脉络膜小板中观察到显示出高反射率的内部乔化肿瘤血管。在深毛细血管丛(DCP)中,在视网膜内裂隙/囊样黄斑水肿的7只眼中可见流空变化。四个厚度>2mm的CCH由于与RPE萎缩相关的瘤内血管中的血流未掩盖而显示出外部视网膜受累。继CCH的TTT/吲哚菁绿增强TTT(ICG-TTT)之后,SS-OCT检查结果包括视网膜下液的总/部分分辨率(57.1%),肿瘤完全/部分消退(52.4%),和RPE萎缩(33.3%)。治疗后;脉络膜脱落,在SS-OCTA上检测到肿瘤血管的减少以及纤维成分和流空面积的增加。
结论:SS-OCT/SS-OCTA是用于对TTT或ICG-TTT管理的CCH的结构/血管变化进行成像的有用的非侵入性工具。在SS-OCTA上,观察到DCP中位于水肿/分裂的低反射空间和脉络膜毛细血管板中低反射基质背景内的乔化肿瘤血管。在TTT/ICG-TTT之后,在SS-OCTA上检测到CCH内的肿瘤血管减少和纤维成分和流动空隙面积增加。
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) and SS-OCT angiography (SS-OCTA) findings in circumscribed choroidal hemangioma (CCH) before and after treatment with transpupillary thermotherapy (TTT).
METHODS: The clinical records of 21 eyes having CCH imaged with SS-OCT/SS-OCTA between September 2018 and December 2022 were evaluated.
RESULTS: SS-OCT examination in CCH showed dome-shaped appearance (100%), choroidal shadowing (100%), expansion of choroidal structures (100%), subretinal fluid (66.7%), intraretinal edema/schisis (33.3%), retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) atrophy (19.0%), hyperreflective dots (19.0%), and epiretinal membrane (4.8%). Internal arborizing tumor vessels showing hyperreflectivity were observed in the choriocapillaris slab on SS-OCTA in all eyes. In the deep capillary plexus (DCP), flow void changes were seen in 7 eyes with intraretinal schisis/cystoid macular edema. Four CCHs > 2 mm in thickness showed outer retinal involvement due to unmasking of flow in intratumoral vessels related to RPE atrophy. Following TTT/indocyanine green-enhanced TTT (ICG-TTT) of CCH, SS-OCT findings included total/partial resolution of subretinal fluid (57.1%), complete/partial regression of the tumor (52.4%), and RPE atrophy (33.3%). After treatment; loss of choriocapillaris, decrease in tumor vascularity together with increase in the fibrous component and flow void areas were detected on SS-OCTA.
CONCLUSIONS: SS-OCT/SS-OCTA are useful non-invasive tools for imaging the structural/vascular changes in CCHs managed with TTT or ICG-TTT. On SS-OCTA, hyporeflective spaces localizing to edema/schisis in the DCP and arborizing tumor vessels within a hyporeflective stromal background in the choriocapillaris slab were observed. After TTT/ICG-TTT, a decrease in tumor vessels and an increase in the fibrous component and flow-void areas inside the CCH were detected on SS-OCTA.
