Abstract

Purpose: To evaluate the increase of macular thickness after uncomplicated phacoemulsification surgery in diabetic patients by optical coherence tomography (OCT) Materials and Methods: Forty-six eyes of 46 patients who underwent cataract surgery in our clinic were included in this retro- spective study. Two groups were formed. Group I consisted of 21 diabetic patients and as the control group, group II consisted of 25 non-diabetic patients who had similar demographical features and underwent surgery at the same period. The demographic data and full ophthalmologic examinations of all patients in each group were recorded. Preoperative and on postoperative 1st day, and at 2nd, 4th, 14th weeks, central macular thickness (CMT) and total maculer volume (TMV) values were measured by OCT. Results: Macular thickness and volume were measured by OCT preoperative and on postoperative 1st day, and at 2nd, 4th, 14th weeks. In group I, macular thickness values were 205.29±18.2 μm, 208.81±19.4 μm, 218.24±19.3 μm, 232.86±14.8 μm, 239.1±11.3 μm respectively. In group II, macular thickness values were 202.52±15.6 μm, 204.12±15.5 μm, 217.32±15.3 μm, 223.08±16.3 μm, 224.28±16.7 μm respectively. Increase of CMT was statistically significant in both groups. However, no statistically significant dif- ference was found between the two groups when compared to each other. Conclusion: After uncomplicated phacoemulsification surgery in both groups, CMT and TMV values showed a statistically signifi- cant increase. However, increase of CMT and TMV was similar in both groups and was not statistically significant. After phaco- emulsification surgery, increase in macular thickness should be kept in mind. Our study shows that diabetes mellitus does not provide an additional increase in macular thickness and volume

Özet

Amaç: Diyabetes mellitus (DM) hastalarında, komplikasyonsuz fakoemülsifikasyon cerrahisinden sonra oluşan maküla kalınlık ar- tışının optik koherens tomografi (OKT) ile değerlendirilmesi. Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmaya kliniğimizde katarakt ameliyatı yapılan 46 hastanın 46 gözü retrospektif olarak dahil edildi. İki grup oluşturuldu. Grup I, DM olan 21 hastadan, grup II ise kontrol grubu olarak demografik özellikleri benzer, aynı tarihler arasında ame- liyatı yapılan ve DM olmayan 25 hastadan oluşturuldu. Her iki gruptaki hastaların demografik verileri ve tam oftalmolojik muayene bulguları kaydedildi. Hastaların santral maküler kalınlık (SMK) ve total maküler volüm (TMV) değerleri ameliyat öncesi ve ameliyat sonrası 1’inci gün, 2’inci hafta, 4’üncü hafta ve 14’üncü haftada OKT ile tespit edildi. Bulgular: Ameliyat öncesi, ameliyat sonrası 1’inci gün, 2’inci hafta, 4’üncü hafta ve 14’üncü hafta takiplerinde OKT ile yapılan değerlendirmede ortalama maküla kalınlığı sırasıyla grup I’de 205.29±18.2 μm, 208.81±19.4 μm, 218.24±19.3 μm, 232.86±14.8 μm, 239.1±11.3 μm grup II’de 202,52±15,6 μm, 204.12±15.5 μm, 217.32±15.3 μm, 223.08±16.3 μm, 224.28±16.7 μm olarak saptandı. Her iki grupta da istatistiksel olarak anlamlı SMK artışı bulundu. Ancak, iki grup karşılaştırıldığında aralarında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark bulunamadı. Sonuç: Her iki grupta da komplikasyonsuz fakoemülsifikasyon cerrahisinden sonra SMK ve TMV değerleri istatistiksel olarak an- lamlı bir şekilde artmıştır. Ancak her iki grup karşılaştırıldığında SMK ve TMV artışı benzer bulunmuş, istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark bulunmamıştır. Fakoemülsifikasyon cerrahisinden sonra olası maküla kalınlığındaki artış akılda tutulmalıdır ancak, bizim çalışmamız DM varlığının maküla kalınlık ve volüm üzerine ek bir artış sağlamadığını göstermektedir.
