LyoMAC1 study. PG - 2501-2508 LID - 10.1007/s00417-022-05592-y [doi] AB - PURPOSE: To estimate the prevalence of telangiectatic capillaries (TCs) in patients followed for chronic macular edema (CME) (diabetic ME [DME] and ME associated with retinal vein occlusion [RVO]). METHODS: Real-life, prospective, bi-centric cohort study including all consecutive patients followed for a clinically significant CME secondary to diabetic retinopathy or RVO. Inclusion criteria were patients treated with intravitreal injection for their ME for at least 12 months who had to undergo follow-up angiography. Multimodal imaging with color retinophotography, spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT), OCT angiography, and en face OCT was performed in all patients. RESULTS: A total of 101 eyes of 71 patients were included between November 2019 and June 2020. Of the 101 eyes analyzed, indocyanine green angiography found at least one TC in 67 eyes (66.3%). No significant differences were found between the groups with and without TC except for the distribution of DME and RVO (p < 0.008). In 83.6% of eyes with TCs, TCs contributed to the formation of the ME. SD-OCT sensitivity for TC detection was 94%. CONCLUSION: In our study, the estimated prevalence of TCs in CME (DME and ME associated with RVO) was 66.3%, i.e., two-thirds of patients. SD-OCT was an excellent screening examination with a sensitivity of 94%. CI - (c) 2022. The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.
