摘要
AIM：To investigate the predictive factors for shortterm effects of intravitreal bevacizumab injections on central subfield foveal thickness（CSFT）in patients with macular edema（ME）secondary to central retinal vein occlusion（CRVO）.·METHODS：This was a retrospective study in 60 eyes treated with intravitreal bevacizumab injections for ME due to CRVO.Follow-up was three months.The Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study（ETDRS）score and CSFT measured by spectral-domain optical coherence tomography（SD-OCT）were used to observe the changes in best-corrected visual acuity（BCVA）.Baseline BCVA,CSFT,age,CRVO duration and the presence of cystoid macular edema（CME）or subretinal fluid（SRF）were analyzed as potential predictive factors of the effects of intravitreal bevacizumab injections.·R ESULTS：BCVA improved from 0.9 log MAR at baseline to 0.6 log MAR at 3mo,which was associated with a significant reduction in CSFT from 721μm to 392μm 3mo after injection.About 50%of CME cases and more than90%of SRF cases responded to treatment with a complete resolution at 3mo.Age（=0.036）and low baseline CSFT（=0.037）were associated with a good 3-month prognosis.Patients〉60 years old achieved better CME resolution（=0.031）and lower CSFT at 3mo（305μm 474μm,=0.003）.·CONCLUSION：Intravitreal bevacizumab significantly improved visual acuity and CSFT in patients with CRVO after 3mo.Older age and lower baseline CSFT were good predictors of short-term CSFT outcomes.The retinal thickness response to bevacizumab might depend on the resolution of CME rather than SRF.
