Swept-Source Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography of Paediatric Macular Diseases
Purpose:
To describe the optical coherence tomography (OCT) angiography (OCTA) features of paediatric macular pathologies.
Methods:
Retrospective serial case reports of patients who underwent routine clinical examination and OCTA of the posterior pole using both a DRI OCT Atlantis prototype and Triton Swept-Source OCT. When considered necessary, imaging was performed using Optos wide-field imaging or another non-invasive imaging system. The findings were compared with the current literature.
Results:
Three cases with X-linked retinoschisis, 2 with epiretinal membrane, 1 with Best disease and 2 with Coats disease are fully illustrated.
Conclusion:
OCTA is an effective, non-invasive imaging technique that can offer additional information regarding the morphologies and vascular characteristics of macular lesions in paediatric ophthalmology. Because of the rarity and characteristics of many paediatric macular pathologies, further multi-centric research is required with regard to the utilisation and features of OCTA imaging.
