5.1. Intraoperative use and needling bleb revision with mitomycin C Intraoperative use and needling bleb revision with mitomycin C
MMC when applied topically or injected subconjunctivally, prevents proliferation of fibroblasts within the subconjunctival space and tenon’s capsule. It also has a lethal effect on vascular endothelial cells. A single application of MMC can cause localized, irreversible inhibition of both fibroblasts and vascular endothelial cells. MMC is estimated to be 100 times more potent than 5-FU in fibro...
متن کاملRevision of encapsulated blebs after trabeculectomy: Long-term comparison of standard bleb needling and modified needling procedure combined with transconjunctival scleral flap sutures
PURPOSE To compare two surgical approaches for treating encapsulated blebs after trabeculectomy with mitomycin C, in terms of the development of intraocular pressure and progression of glaucoma in a long-term follow up: 1. bleb needling alone vs. 2. a combined approach of needling with additional transconjunctival scleral flap sutures, to prevent early ocular hypotony. METHODS Forty-six patie...
متن کاملThe relationship of bleb morphology and the outcome of needle revision with 5-fluorouracil in failing filtering bleb
To investigate the risk factors for failure of needling revision with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and to identify the correlation of outcomes of needling revision and the morphological features of dysfunctional filtration blebs using Moorfields bleb grading system.This retrospective, nonrandomized, comparative case-control study included 41 consecutive patients (41 eyes) who underwent 5-FU needling r...
متن کامل[Filtering bleb after surgical cyclodialysis].
CASE REPORT A 35-year-old man with degenerative myopia suffered blunt ocular trauma due to being hit in the face by a ball. The injury caused four cyclodialysis clefts in his left eye which resulted in hypotony and chorioretinal folds. DISCUSSION The persisting hypotony was unsuccessfully treated with topical therapy and with laser photocoagulation. Therefore, a surgical treatment with direct...
متن کاملNeedling revision with subconjunctival 5-fluorouracil in failing filtering blebs.
BACKGROUND 5-Fluorouracil, an antimetabolic agent, improves the success rate of trabeculectomies by inhibiting subconjunctival fibrosis. However, complications may be associated with early postoperative use. We investigated the outcome of needling revision with delayed subconjunctival 5-fluorouracil in failing filtering blebs after a trabeculectomy in patients with medically poorly controlled g...
