Abstract

Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), primarily affects premature infants and it can cause severe visual disability in childho- od. It is characterized by anormal retinal neovascularizations and the main reason of blindness in children in developing countries. The well known risk factors are premature birth, low birth weight, high oxygen therapy ; the others are asidozis, blood transfusion, intracranial hemorrhage, multiple birhts and etnicity. The pathogenezis of ROP occurs in two phases. In the first phase there is relative hyperoxia and obliteration in vessels, in the second phase there is neovascularization which is induced by hypoxia. Neovascularization, occured by interruption of normal angiogenesis, reaches vitreus. Anormal fibro- vasküler doku develops and it causes retinal traction and detachment. In this review we discuss risk factors, epidemiology, pathogenesis, screening and management of ROP

Özet

Prematüre retinopatisi (PR), primer olarak zamanından önce doğan bebekleri etkileyen ve çucukluk çağında ağır görme kayıplarına yol açabilen bir hastalıktır. Anormal retinal neovaskülarizasyonla karekterize olup gelişmekte olan ülkelerde çocuklardaki körlüğün en önemli nedenidir. Erken doğum, yüksek oksijen konsantrasyonuna maruz kalmak, düşük doğum ağırlığına sahip olmak başta olmak üzere asidoz, kan transfüzyonu, intrakraniyal kanama, çoğul gebelik ve ırk hastalığın bilinen risk faktörleridir. Prematüre retinopatisi patogenezi iki fazdan oluşmaktadır. Birinci fazda relatif hiperoksi ve damarlarda obliterasyon olurken ikinci fazda hipoksinin tetiklediği neovaskülarizasyon mevcuttur. Normal anjiogenezisin kesintiye uğramasıyla oluşan yeni damarlar retinadan vitreusa doğru uzanır. Anormal fibrovasküler doku gelişimiyle retinal traksiyona ve dekolmana yol açar. Bu derlemede PR risk faktörleri, epidemiyolojisi, patogenezi, tanısı, tedavisi ve takibi tartışılmıştır.
