description | OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the diagnostic capability of optical coherence tomography (OCT) in children aged under 18 years old with intracranial hypertension (IH). DESIGN: Systematic review. METHODS: We conducted a systematic review using the following platforms to search the keywords ‘optical coherence tomography’ and ‘intracranial hypertension’ from inception to 2 April 2020: Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, EMBASE, MEDLINE, PubMed and Web of Science, without language restrictions. Our search returned 2729 records, screened by two independent screeners. Studies were graded according to the Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine and National Institutes of Health Quality Assessment Tool for observational studies. RESULTS: Twenty-one studies were included. Conditions included craniosynostosis (n=354 patients), idiopathic IH (IIH; n=102), space-occupying lesion (SOL; n=42) and other pathology (n=29). OCT measures included optic nerve parameters, rim parameters (notably retinal nerve fibre layer thickness) and retinal parameters. Levels of evidence included 2b (n=13 studies), 3b (n=4) and 4 (n=4). Quality of 10 studies was fair and 11 poor. There was inconsistency in OCT parameters and reference measures studied, although OCT did demonstrate good diagnostic capability for IH in craniosynostosis, IIH and SOL. CONCLUSIONS: This systematic review identified various studies involving OCT to assist diagnosis and management of IH in children with craniosynostosis, IIH, SOL and other pathology, in conjunction with established clinical measures of intracranial pressure. However, no level 1 evidence was identified. Validating prospective studies are, therefore, required to determine optimal OCT parameters in this role and to develop formal clinical guidelines.
