  • The treatment of indocyanine-green-assisted internal limiting membrane peeling for idiopathic macular hole

    Objective To determine the anatomical and visual outcome of indocy anine-green(ICG)-assisted internal limiting membrane(ILM) peeling for idiopathic macular holes. Methods Thirty-one eyes of 31 patients with 3- (14 eyes,45.2%) and 4-staged (17 eyes, 54.8%) primary idiopathic macular holes were analyzed. All the patients underwent the subtotal pars plana vitrectomy with removal of the posterior vitreous. ICG solution with the concentration of 1.25 mg/ml was injected into vitreous cavity. The ILM was stained and removed in a circular fashion of 2 to 3 disc-diameter from the edge of the hole. At the end of the surgery, 14% C-3F-8 mixed gas was used and the patients were required to maintain a prostrate posture for two weeks postoperatively. The mean follow-up duration was 9.1 months. Results The preoperative median visual acuity was 20/200. In the final follow-up, 28 eyes (90.3%) had anatomical restoration of the macular holes, 21 eyes had improvement of two lines or more of visual acuity. There was no direct complication or toxicity related to ICG-assisted ILM peeling except one patient with retinal detachment caused by peripheral retinal hole.Conclusion ICG-assisted retinal ILM removal appears beneficial and safe for primary idiopathic 3- and 4-staged macular holes.

  • Analysis of risk factors for short-term adverse prognosis after complete transposition of the great arteries in newborns and construction of a predictive model

    Objective To identify and quantify independent risk factors for poor perioperative outcomes in neonates with transposition of the great arteries (TGA) and arterial switch operation (ASO), and establish a predictive model for risk stratification and perioperative management optimization. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of neonatal TGA patients treated with ASO at Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital from January 1998 to August 2024. The research variables included baseline characteristics, preoperative parameters, surgical variables, and postoperative management indicators. The main outcome was perioperative composite adverse events. Multiple logistic regression was used to screen for independent risk factors and construct a predictive model. Results Finally, 376 patients were enrolled, including 306 (81.4%) males and 70 (18.6%) females, with a median gestational age of 39 weeks and an average age of visit of (3.86±5.76) days. The 167 (44.4%) patients experienced poor prognosis. Low admission length [OR=0.726, 95%CI (0.643, 0.815)], low preoperative oxygen saturation [OR=0.942, 95%CI (0.922, 0.962)], and longer cardiopulmonary bypass time [OR=1.85, 95%CI (1.189, 2.887)] were independent predictive factors of postoperative ASO. The predictive model had good discriminative ability (area under the curve=0.800). Conclusion The short-term poor prognosis of TGA neonatal ASO surgery is highly correlated with admission length, preoperative hypoxia, and longer extracorporeal circulation time. Early risk stratification based on these readily available clinical parameters can aid in individualized perioperative management and improve prognosis.
