Growth and neurodevelopmental status in patients with retinopathy of prematurity treated with intravitreal bevacizumab: a case–control study

Abstract Background The current study aimed to evaluate growth and neurodevelopmental status in patients with retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) treated with intravitreal bevacizumab (IVB). Methods This historical cohort study was conducted on neonates with ROP who were treated with IVB and age and bi...

Methods This historical cohort study was conducted on neonates with ROP who were treated with IVB and age and birth weight-matched controls who did not need IVB. Apgar score less than five, history of blood transfusion and history of infectious diseases were among exclusion criteria. Indirect ophthalmoscopic examinations were performed till complete retinal vascularization. Growth and neurodevelopmental status were evaluated by Age and Stages Questionnaire (ASQ) at the ages of 6, 12, and 18 months.
