Vortex Veins in Eyes With Pachychoroid Spectrum Disorders Evaluated by the Adjusted Reverse 3-Dimensional Projection Model
Purpose: To compare the distribution of vortex vein ampulla (VVA) between pachychoroid spectrum disorder (PSD) and controls. Design: A single-center, case-control study. Participants: This study included 75 PSD, 35 fellow, and 65 control eyes. Methods: We quantified VVA distribution using a 3-dimens...

description | Purpose: To compare the distribution of vortex vein ampulla (VVA) between pachychoroid spectrum disorder (PSD) and controls. Design: A single-center, case-control study. Participants: This study included 75 PSD, 35 fellow, and 65 control eyes. Methods: We quantified VVA distribution using a 3-dimensional reverse projection model corrected for image distortion. We investigated the distribution of major drainage veins (MDV), in which macular Haller's vessels directly influx. Main Outcome Measures: The mean distances from the optic disc to VVAs and the mean angles between VVAs and the fovea-disc line. Results: The PSD group had significantly fewer VVA in infranasal sector (PSD, fellow, control; 1.6 ± 0.6, 1.8 ± 0.6, 1.9 ± 0.6, respectively, P = 0.026). In supralateral sector, for PSD, fellows, and controls, the mean distances from the optic disc to VVAs were 14.1 ± 1.0 mm, 14.1 ± 1.1 mm, and 13.6 ± 1.4 mm, respectively, and were significantly farther in PSD than in controls (P = 0.023). The mean angles between VVAs and the fovea-disc line were 64.8 ± 5.9°, 66.4 ± 6.4°, and 61.7 ± 6.4°, respectively, and were significantly higher in PSD and fellows than in controls (P = 0.008). The mean distances from the optic disc to MDV in supratemporal sector were 14.1 ± 1.2 and 13.7 ± 1.2 in eyes whose Haller's vessels extended beyond the fovea-disc line (asymmetry), and those that did not, respectively, with the asymmetric eyes significantly farther (P = 0.016). Conclusions: The VVA position in supralateral sector was farther and higher in PSD than in controls, suggesting that the distribution of VVA may be associated with the development of PSD.
