Response to: Variation in the vitreoretinal configuration of Stage 4 retinopathy of prematurity in photocoagulated and treatment naive eyes undergoing vitrectomy

Previous studies have also shown that APROP in heavier (>1500 g birth weight) premature infants occurs mostly in posterior zone 2 with flat neovascularization and atypical features such as large vascular loops. [2] Hence, the location of proliferation should probably have naturally been less cent...

Zusammenfassung:Previous studies have also shown that APROP in heavier (>1500 g birth weight) premature infants occurs mostly in posterior zone 2 with flat neovascularization and atypical features such as large vascular loops. [2] Hence, the location of proliferation should probably have naturally been less central than that observed in our study. [...]we feel convinced about the location of the neovascularization/ridge as described in our article. Sanghi G, Dogra MR, Katoch D, Gupta A. Aggressive posterior retinopathy of prematurity in infants > 1500 g birth weight.
