BACKGROUND: Retinal microvascular changes have been previously associated with cerebral MRI markers of small vessel disease (SVD). Whether retinal changes differ between patient with intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) and patients with lacunar infarction (LI) caused by small vessel disease has been poorly investigated.
OBJECTIVE: The study aims to compare the frequency of retinal changes between patients with LI and patients with ICH at the acute stage of stroke-related SVD.
METHODS: Microvascular wall signs (arteriolar occlusion, arteriovenous nicking, focal arterial narrowing) and retinopathy lesions (microanevrysms, cotton wool spots, retinal haemorrhages, hard exudates) were assessed by retinography up to three months after stroke onset.
RESULTS: Forty-eight non-diabetic patients with acute stroke-related to SVD (26 LI, 22 ICH) were recruited prospectively in the study. Retinal wall signs (arteriovenous nicking, and focal arterial narrowing) were found in more than three quarters of subjects and most often bilaterally in both groups. Retinopathy lesions (cotton wool spots, retinal haemorrhages) were found more frequently in ICH patients than in LI patients (22.2% vs. 15.4%, 50% vs. 34% respectively, P>0.005). The frequency of bilateral cotton wool spots and of bilateral retinal haemorrhages was significantly higher in ICH patients than in LI patients (12.5% vs. 0%, P=0.012, 41.2% vs. 7.7%, P=0.029 respectively).
CONCLUSION: These results confirm the high frequency of microvascular alterations in patients with hypertension-related SVD leading to LI or ICH and suggest that retinal tissue alterations are more frequent in ICH than in LI. Further investigations are needed to investigate the mechanisms underlying this difference.
