摘要: 新生血管性年龄相关性黄斑变性(nAMD),其患病率随着年龄的增长而逐渐提升,是目前致盲老年人的重要疾病,目前主要的治疗方法是玻璃体内注射抗血管内皮生长因子(抗VEGF)药物,但仍有部分nAMD患者在接受抗VEGF治疗后视力改善程度不理想,既往的一些研究结果显示某些能够在OCT上观测到的生物标志物如视网膜内液(IRF)、椭球体区完整性(EZ)、视网膜下高反射材料(SHRM)、高反射病灶(HF)等,能够OCTA上观测到的生物标志物如脉络膜血管分型等可以用来判断患者抗VEGF治疗后的预后。本文将从nAMD的病理生理机制,nAMD患者的治疗,nAMD患者抗VEGF治疗前后OCT生物标志物与患者视力的相关性,分析nAMD患者OCT和OCTA特征性的生物标志物,帮助患者诊疗。
Abstract: Neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD), whose prevalence gradually increases with age, is a major blinding disease among the elderly population currently. The main treatment method available is intravitreal injection of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) drugs. However, some nAMD patients still show unsatisfactory visual improvement after receiving anti-VEGF treatment. Results from previous studies have indicated that certain biomarkers detectable on optical coherence tomography (OCT)—such as intraretinal fluid (IRF), ellipsoid zone integrity (EZ), subretinal hyperreflective material (SHRM), and hyperreflective foci (HF)—as well as biomarkers observable on optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) (e.g., choroidal vascular classification) can be used to predict the prognosis of nAMD patients after anti-VEGF treatment. This article will analyze the characteristic biomarkers of nAMD patients on OCT and OCTA by examining the pathophysiological mechanisms of nAMD, the treatment options for nAMD patients, and the correlation between OCT biomarkers (before and after anti-VEGF treatment) and patients’ visual acuity, thereby providing support for the diagnosis and treatment of nAMD patients.
