[Choroidal Neovascularisation Other than Typical Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration].

Abstract:

:Choroidal neovascularisation (CNV) in the context of exsudative age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) can be divided into type 1 (occult) and type 2 (classical) membranes. Retinal angiomatous proliferation (RAP) or polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV) are "rare subtypes" of chorioretinal neovascularisation and are distinguished by their distinct morphology and the sometimes worse response to therapy. Chorioretinal anastomosis, severe exsudates with serosanguinous pigment epithelial detachment and, in PCV, orange-red lesions in the papillomacular bundle can be diagnostic. Indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) is considered the gold standard for diagnosis of PCV and delivers important information for RAP too. Typical characteristics of PCV include foci of hyperfluoresence, with pulsatile filling in the early phase. This characterises choroidal polypoidal lesions, often in connection with an abnormal choroidal vascular network. In RAP, typical retino-retinal anastomosis can be identified, in particular in areas with pigment epithelial detachment. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) can complement diagnostic testing. In cases of RAP, early therapy initiation with intravitreal anti-VEGF is crucial for the prognosis of visual acuity. PCV can exhibit spontaneous regression. In active disease, photodynamic therapy (PDT) is efficient in the closure of PCV polyps. In association with CNV, it makes sense to combine PDT and intravitreal anti-VEGF medication. In spite of the initial increase in visual acuity, this state is normally "only" stabilised in the long term. In patients with idiopathic secondary CNV membranes (high myopia, post-inflammatory, post-traumatic changes or in hereditary connective tissue diseases), small "classical" type 2 membranes are mostly involved. Hence, these are strictly speaking not directly rare subtypes. Nevertheless, these patients are mostly younger, with less protracted illness and limited available regeneration ability of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE): they may therefore differ favourably from the courses with nAMD, with earlier inactivation and with fewer required anti-VEGF injections. CNV with angioid streaks are a special case in this group. Unfortunately, these lesions have a recurrent, protracted and, in the end, mostly frustrating course. :Choroidale Neovaskularisationsmembranen (CNV) im Rahmen einer neovaskulären altersassoziierten Makuladegeneration (nAMD) können in Typ-1- (okkulte) und Typ-2- (klassische) Membranen unterteilt werden. Hiervon abzugrenzen sind, wegen ihrer differierenden Morphologie und des teils schlechteren Ansprechens, neovaskuläre „Sonderformen“ wie retinale angiomatöse Proliferationen (RAP) oder die polypoidalen choroidalen Vaskulopathien (PCV). Klinisch hinweisend sind chorioretinale Anastomosen, kräftige Exsudationen mit – für die PCV – serosanguinösen Pigmentepithelabhebungen (PED) und typischen orangerotfarbenen Läsionen im papillomakulären Bündel. Die Indocyaningrünangiografie (ICGA) stellt den diagnostischen Goldstandard für die PCV dar und liefert wichtige Informationen auch bei den RAP. Die Polypen der PCV stellen sich hier frühzeitig als fokale Hyperfluoreszenz mit z. T. pulsierender Füllung dar, häufig in Verbindung mit einem anormalen choroidalen Netzwerk. Über Arealen mit einer PED können bei RAP retinoretinale Anastomosen gut identifiziert werden. Die Befunde der optischen Kohärenztomografie (OCT) ergänzen die Diagnostik. Ein möglichst frühzeitiger und konsequenter Therapieansatz mit intravitrealer Anti-VEGF-Gabe ist bei RAP für die Visusprognose entscheidend. PCV können eine spontane Regression zeigen. Besteht Therapiebedarf, sprechen die Polypen besser auf eine photodynamische Therapie (PDT) an. Bei assoziierter CNV ist die Kombination aus PDT und intravitrealer Anti-VEGF-Gabe sinnvoll. Trotz initialem Anstieg kann im Langzeitverlauf der Visus zumeist „nur“ stabilisiert werden. Bei idiopathischen wie sekundären CNV-Membranen (Myopia magna, postentzündlich, posttraumatisch oder im Rahmen hereditärer Bindegewebserkrankungen) handelt es sich zumeist um kleine (klassische) Typ-2-Membranen. Sie stellen streng genommen keine direkten Sonderformen dar. Durch ein meist jüngeres Patientenalter, eine kürzere Erkrankungsdauer, eine begrenzte Regenerationsfähigkeit des retinalen Pigmentepithels (RPE) können sie sich jedoch günstig von der nAMD unterscheiden, mit rascher Inaktivierung sowie einem insgesamt geringeren Anti-VEGF-Injektionsbedarf. Eine Sonderstellung innerhalb dieser Gruppe nimmt die CNV bei Angioid Streaks ein. Diese ist leider durch einen rezidivierenden, langwierigen und letztlich zumeist frustranen Verlauf gekennzeichnet.
