The most severe form of rapidly progressing retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is termed aggressive posterior ROP (APROP). APROP frequently causes severe visual impairment in affected preterm infants despite timely and appropriate laser treatment. We investigated postnatal characteristics associated with APROP development in a national Swedish cohort. This retrospective, 1:1 matched, case-control study included all infants that developed APROP in zone 1 (n=9) in 2008-2012. Control infants, matched for gestational age and birth weight, developed ROP no worse than stage 2 (n=9). We retrieved data from medical records on infant birth characteristics, postnatal morbidities, and blood analyses from birth to the first ROP treatment. Infectious episodes included sepsis, C-reactive protein ≥10 mg/L, and other clinical signs of infection that required antibiotic treatment. A platelet count <100×109/L was considered thrombocytopenia. All APROP cases postnatally developed at least two infectious episodes, one in the first month and one around the ROP diagnosis. All APROP cases exhibited thrombocytopenia in the first month, and 6/9 exhibited thrombocytopenia around time for ROP diagnosis. Compared to controls, APROP cases more frequently developed necrotizing enterocolitis (8/9 vs. 1/9; p<0.01) and sepsis (9/9 vs. 3/9; p<0.01), and they had significantly lower median platelet counts (90 × 109/L, range: 4-459 vs. 158 × 109/L, range: 20-500; p<0.001). Multiple infectious episodes and thrombocytopenia, particularly around the time for ROP diagnosis, were associated with APROP development.
