Summary

The Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) is a Retina's pathology only of the premature baby, it's characterized for proliferation of vascular tissue that grow in the limit between the vascular retina and the avascular retina. The altered regulation of Vascular Endothelial Grow Factor (VEGF) has been proposed as one of the principal factor in the pathogenesis of the ROP.

The ROP is classified for: location (zones I,II,III), extension (hours 1 to 12) and for stages (1,2,3,4a,4b,5) and features of the vessels (normal, pre-plus and plus).

With the diagnosis of ROP type 1(ROP zone I any stage with plus, zone I stage 3 without plus, zone II stage 2 y 3 with plus) the treatment is begun and ROP type 2 is maintained in observation.

The altered regulation of Vascular Endothelial Grow Factor (VEGF) has been proposed as one of the principal factors in the pathogenesis of ROP.
