RESUMEN
Propósito: Evaluar la respuesta clínica de la terapia fotodinámica (TFD) combinada con bevacizumab intravítreo (BVZ) en
neovascularizaciones coroideas (NVC) resistentes al tratamiento.
Métodos: Evaluación retrospectiva, no comparativa, de ojos
con diagnóstico de NVC secundaria a degeneración macular relacionada con la edad sin respuesta clínica después de al
menos 3 inyecciones intravítreas de BVZ, a los que se administró TFD+BVZ combinados y posteriormente BVZ mensual
durante un periodo de 6 meses. Las variables principales de desenlace incluyeron agudeza visual corregida (AVC) y grosor
macular central (GMC) durante un seguimiento de 6 meses posteriores al tratamiento combinado.
Resultados: Se incluyeron
once pacientes (54.5% femenino, media de edad 62 años). Utilizando angiografía con ICG, las lesiones se clasificaron
como vasculopatía coroidea polipoidea (VCP) en 54.4%, NVC arteriolizada en 18.2% (2) y no diferenciable en 27.3% (3). La
AVC (logMAR) en la basal fue de 0.63 (20/85), mejorando a 0.32 (20/40) después del tratamiento (p = 0.04). La media de
GMC antes de la intervención fue de 469 µm, mejorando a 289 µm seis meses después del tratamiento (p = 0.01).
Conclusión: La terapia combinada con TFD+BVZ parece ser efectiva en casos de NVC resistentes a tratamiento, con mejoría
de la AVC y el GMC después de un periodo de 6 meses de tratamiento que no se observó con la monoterapia con
BVZ. En este grupo se observó una alta incidencia de VCP y NVC arteriolizada o casos de NVC resistentes al tratamiento.
La adecuada clasificación del tipo de NVC asociada a una elevada resistencia puede ser útil para el tratamiento.
