Trabeculectomy augmented with mitomycin C application under the scleral flap.
AIM The authors investigated the safety and intraocular pressure (IOP) lowering effectiveness of trabeculectomy augmented with mitomycin C application beneath the scleral flap, and assessed the influence of preoperative risk factors on the surgical outcome. METHODS A retrospective study of 72 consecutive high risk eyes undergoing trabeculectomy with adjunctive mitomycin C (0.2 mg/ml) applied ...
متن کاملEffect of Mitomycin-C Augmented Trabeculectomy on Corneal Endothelial Cells
PURPOSE To evaluate the effect of mitomycin-C (MMC) on corneal endothelial cell density (ECD) and morphology after trabeculectomy. METHODS In this prospective comparative case series, 31 eyes with glaucoma underwent trabeculectomy with (group I), or without (group II) MMC. Specular microscopy was performed pre-, and postoperatively at months 1 and 3. Outcome measures included central corneal ...
متن کامل[Decompression retinopathy with maculopathy after trabeculectomy with mitomycin C].
CASE REPORT We present a case of decompression retinopathy with retinal haemorrhages, optic nerve haemorrhages, maculopathy, and decreased visual acuity after trabeculectomy with mitomycin-C. DISCUSSION Decompression retinopathy is a potential complication after glaucoma surgery but has been rarely reported in the world literature. Although these four characteristics have been described separ...
متن کاملTrabeculectomy with mitomycin C in glaucoma associated with uveitis.
Twenty-four trabeculectomies performed in 24 patients for control of uveitic glaucoma were retrospectively evaluated to analyze the effect of intraoperative application of mitomycin C (MMC) on the short-term outcome of trabeculectomy for glaucoma associated with uveitis. Success rates, postoperative levels of intraocular pressure (IOP), and complications were studied. After a mean follow up of ...
متن کاملImpact of phacoemulsification on failure of trabeculectomy with mitomycin-C.
PURPOSE To evaluate whether phacoemulsification after trabeculectomy affects postoperative intraocular pressure (IOP). SETTING Kumamoto University, Kumamoto, Japan. DESIGN Cohort study. METHODS The medical records of patients with primary open-angle glaucoma or exfoliation glaucoma who had trabeculectomy with mitomycin-C were reviewed. The primary endpoints were condition A (persistent po...
