Abstract
Aim. To investigate the incidence and structure of vascular retinal pathologies in women with preeclampsia and its combination with chronic arterial hypertension (AH).
Methods. A total of 231 medical records of women with different pregnancy histories were studied by consecutive sampling. The first experimental group comprised women (n = 47) diagnosed with preeclampsia combined with chronic AH. The second experimental group comprised women (n = 48) with preeclampsia developed during pregnancy. The first comparison group included women with pregnancy-associated gestational AH. The second comparison group included women with edema and proteinuria during pregnancy but without AH. The control group consisted of women (n = 50) with normal pregnancy histories. The postpartum period ranged from 6 to 12 years.
Results. The development of vascular retinal pathologies during the postpartum period occurred in 28 women in the general sample (12%). Retinal vein occlusions predominated in the structure of vascular retinal pathology (19 women, 19 eyes). Proliferative retinopathy was detected in 8 patients (8 eyes). In one case, a central retinal artery occlusion developed.
Conclusions. The incidence of vascular retinal pathologies in the 1st and 2nd experimental groups comprised 21% and 25% respectively, which was statistically significantly higher than that in the control, 1st and 2nd comparison groups (4%, 4%, and 6% respectively, p < 0.01). The revealed significantly higher incidence of vascular retinal pathology in both experimental groups indicates the domineering role of preeclampsia and AH-associated pre-eclampsia in the development of vascular retinal pathologies.
