摘 要:Objectives: To identify the histologic and ultrastructural features of surgica lly excised subfoveal choroidal neovascular lesions from patients enrolled in th e Submacular Surgery Trials and to compare them with clinical data. Methods: Sur gically excised subfoveal choroidal neovascular lesions from patients enrolled i n the Submacular Surgery Trials group N trial (lesion predominantly choroidal ne ovascularization [CNV] with evidence of classic CNV from age-related macular de generation), group B trial (lesion predominantly hemorrhagic from age-relatedma cular degeneration), and groupHtrial (idiopathic subfoveal CNV or subfoveal CNV from ocular histoplasmosis syndrome) between October 1, 1999, and September 1, 2 001, were submitted to the pathology center. The lesion growth pattern (subretin al pigment epithelial [sub-RPE], subretinal, combined, or indeterminate) and th e cellular and extracellular constituents were classified independently. Demogra phic, clinical, and fluorescein angiographic characteristics of patients, eyes, and lesions, respectively, were compared with the pathologic features. Results: Of 269 patients assigned to surgery during the 24 months that pathologic specime nswere collected, surgical specimens from study eyes of 199 were submitted to th e pathology center. Of the 199 routine histologie specimens processed, 144 (72% ) were classified as CNV, 51 (26%) as fibrocellular tissue, and 4 (2%) as hemo rrhage. The median specimen size was smaller in group H (932 X 208 μm) than in groups N (1980 X 325 μm) and B (1800 X 395 μm). The CNV growth pattern was det ermined in 91 (46%) of 199 specimens. Of 159 group N and group B lesions, 76 (4 8%) had an indeterminate growth pattern, 28 (18%) had a sub-RPE growth patter n, and 33 (21%) had sub-RPE and subretinal growth patterns. Of 40 group H lesi ons, 32 (80%) had an indeterminate growth pattern, 7 (18%) had a subretinal gr owth pattern, and 1 (2%) had a combined sub-RPE and subretinal pattern. Based o
