Zusammenfassung:Purpose: to analyze the anatomical and functional results of the differentiated treatment of optic disc pit maculopathy in children. Material and methods. We examined 23 children aged 5–17 years with an o ptic disc pit maculopathy. 10 children underwent retinal laser coagulation (LC) along the borders of the optic disc pit (1–3 sessions), 13 children underwent pars plana vitrectomy with gas tamponade (C2F6) in combination with retinal LC. In addition to the standard ophthalmological examination, all children underwent optical coherence tomography of the macular area of the retina before treatment and at different times after it. Results. In the group of children who underwent LC, the initial value of the maximum retina elevation averaged 525 ± 140 μm (from 346 to 882 μm). After laser treatment, all children showed a decrease in retinal elevation by 32 to 602 μm. 3 children had complete resorption of subretinal fluid during follow-up periods from 5 to 13 months. Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) remained stable in 5 children, increased by 0.04–0.6 in 4 children, and decreased by 0.1 in one child. In the group of surgically treated children, the elevation of the retina before the intervention averaged 919 ± 143 μm (from 614 to 1420 μm) (p < 0.05). After the intervention, this parameter decreased in all children by 91 to 811 μm, complete resorption of subretinal fluid was observed in 4 children during follow-up periods from 4 to 6 months. BCVA remained stable in 5 children, increased in 7 children by 0.1–0.7, and decreased by 0.4 in one child due to the progression of the cataract. Conclusion. The differentiated approach to the treatment of optic disc pit maculopathy in children proved to be highly efficient, depending on the height of retinal elevation in the macular zone before the start of treatment.
