As smaller and younger babies are surviving, the incidence of ROP has increased. ROP is a disease that affects immature vasculature in the eyes of premature babies. It can be mild with no visual defects, or it may become aggressive with new blood vessel formation.

| þ Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a disease that affects immature vasculature in the eyes of babies. premature babies. þ It can be mild with no visual defects, or it may become aggressive with new blood vessel formation (neovascularization) and progress to retinal detachment and blindness blindness.. þ As smaller and younger babies are surviving, the incidence of ROP has increased. r
| þ It was first suggested that ROP was related to the introduction of oxygen therapy into the newborn nursery þ Today, after oxygen therapy has been studied and found not to be the single causative agent, the factors that play a role in the pathogenesis of ROP are still unknown. r
| þ In a normally developing retina, blood vessels emanating from the optic disk grow toward the peripheral retina during the fourth month of gestation. þ Typically, the nasal retina is completely vascularized by 36 weeks· gestation, and the temporal retina is vascularized by 0 weeks· gestation. þ Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), a condition that develops mainly in premature infants, occurs when normal retinal angiogenesis is not complete at the time of birth. þ Histologically, it is characterized by replacement of the neurosensory retina by fibrous tissue and immature blood vessels.. vessels r
| þ Risk Factors : - Prematurity < 32 weeks - Low birth weight < ë00 g - Supplemental oxygen therapy - Others : - Intraventricular hemorrhage - Abruptio placentae j
r| þ j Demarcation line: line: a flat, white, thin line that visibly separates the avascular retina anteriorly (toward the retinal periphery) from the vascularized retina posteriorly. þ j Ridged demarcation line: line: the flat line from stage ë has grown in height, width, and volume and has become a pink- pink-white ridge. þ j xtraretinal fibrovascular proliferation: proliferation: proliferating tissue can be continuous with the posterior aspect of the ridge; immediately posterior to the ridge, but not apparently connected with it; or extending directly into the vitreous. þ j Subtotal retinal detachment: detachment: dragging vessels and subtotal traction retinal detachment can be seen. þ j Total retinal detachment: detachment: funnel- funnel-shaped retinal detachment. Anterior and posterior portions appear open or narrowed on ultrasonographic scans. þ | The designation ´+µ is placed after the stage when dilated posterior veins, tortuous retinal arteries, vitreous haze, and pupillary rigidity are observed. If plus disease is observed in the posterior portion of the retina, patients must be monitored closely, as there is high risk of ROP progressing rapidly to stage within a few days. |
r| Almost all ( 0%) of stage ë and 2 ROP regresses spontaneously, and approximately 0% of stage 3 disease regresses spontaneously. If the condition progresses substantially, however, patients can be treated with either laser photocoagulation or cryotherapy (transconjunctival application of a cold probe to the eye surface) to reduce growth of abnormal blood vessels in an attempt to inhibit disease progression r

- Enucleation - External beam radiotherapy - Chemotherapy (eg. Chemoreduction, systemic chemotherapy, subconjunctival chemoreduction, intrathecal cytosine arabinoside) - Focal therapy (eg. Laser, cryotherapy, radioactive plaque, thermotherapy) - Orbital exenteration |
Prognosis is dependant on : - Location % year survival if intraocular tumor % year survival with extraocular extension - Tumor size & grade - Iris rubeosis - Bilateral tumors (risk of second malignancy) - Age of patient (older worse) r
