Implantation of a Modified Baerveldt Glaucoma Implant with a Smaller Tube and Intraluminal Stent
Dear Editor, The Baerveldt glaucoma implant (BGI; Abbott Laboratories, Abbott Park, IL, USA) is a widely used glaucoma drainage device for intraocular pressure (IOP) control. Although the BGI effectively controls IOP, the possibility of postoperative ocular hypotony owing to excessive aqueous drainage and tube-related complications still remains [1,2]. Given that the amount of aqueous drainage ...
متن کاملCombined Baerveldt glaucoma drainage implant surgery and surgical bleb revision for preventing a postoperative hypertensive phase
BACKGROUND In patients with severe optic nerve damage, it is crucial to prevent the hypertensive phase that can develop after Baerveldt glaucoma drainage implant (BGI) surgery. We describe the combination of BGI surgery with surgical bleb revision to prevent the postoperative hypertensive phase. CASE REPORTS We report two patients who underwent BGI surgery combined with surgical bleb revision...
متن کامل[Postoperative outcomes after combined glaucoma surgery. Comparison of ex-press miniature implant with standard trabeculectomy].
PURPOSE To evaluate postoperative outcomes and success after combined phacoemulsification and glaucoma surgery with Ex-PRESS miniature implant compared with combined surgery with standard trabeculectomy. METHODS In this prospective series of 40 consecutive eyes we compared 20 eyes in 17 patients treated with combined phacoemulsification and glaucoma filtering surgery with the Ex-PRESS miniatu...
متن کاملEndophthalmitis associated with Glaucoma Shunt Intraluminal Stent Exposure.
Endophthalmitis post glaucoma drainage implant (GDI) surgery is rare, often associated with tube or plate exposure. We report a case of endophthalmitis following glaucoma shunt intraluminal stent exposure in a patient who underwent Baerveldt glaucoma implant surgery. Endophthalmitis following manipulation of intraluminal stents is a rare complication of GDIs but potentially vision threatening c...
متن کاملComparison between complications of vascular surgery procedures with and without aPPT assessment and protamine sulfate reversal
Abstract Background: Thrombosis will occur due to contact of blood with unepithelialized surfaces after vascular clamping and also blood stasis during vascular surgery. Heparin is administered to prevent thrombosis. The aPTT test is used for assurance of the anticoagulative effect of heparin. At the end of the operation heparin is neutralized by protamine sulfate in some centers. In this study...
