Background.
The aim of this study was to assess the retinal and choroidal microvasculature features using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) in patients with retinitis pigmentosa (RP).
Methods.
This study was a meta-analysis of relevant published studies that were included after a comprehensive search of PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science databases.
Mean difference (MD) with a 95% confidence interval was used to assess continuous variable outcomes.
Heterogeneity was evaluated using the chi-squared test based on the values of P and I2.
Results.
Seven studies were included in this meta-analysis.
The vessel density values measured in the superficial and deep foveal zones of RP patients using OCTA were significantly lower than the recorded values in the control groups (MD = −3.58, P=0.04; MD = −4.93, P=0.02, respectively).
The superficial and deep parafoveal vessel density values measured with OCTA were also significantly lower in RP patients than in control groups (MD = −9.09, P<0.00001; MD = −10.74, P<0.00001, respectively); for choriocapillaris vessel density, there was no statistically significant difference between RP patients and controls (MD = −1.33, P=0.09).
The deep foveal avascular zone (FAZ) was significantly larger in RP patients than in controls (MD = 0.15, P=0.01), whereas there was no significant difference in the superficial foveal avascular zones in the two groups (MD = 0.08, P=0.11).
Conclusions.
We showed that retinal and choroidal vessels were attenuated in RP patients.
Additionally, we revealed that the FAZ was larger in RP patients, especially the deep FAZ.
OCTA may become a useful modality in the diagnosis and monitoring of patients with RP.
