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 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 ...

METHODS A retrospective study of 72 consecutive high risk eyes undergoing trabeculectomy with adjunctive mitomycin C (0.2 mg/ml) applied ...
متن کاملPersistent hypotony after primary trabeculectomy with mitomycin C
Purpose: To describe the clinical findings and treatment modalities of persistent hypotony following primary trabeculectomy with mitomycin C. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 9 eyes with persistent hypotony, which was defined as intraocular pressure less than or equal to 5 mmHg for more than 2 months. Results: Mean hypotony duration was 7.4 months (standard deviation (SD) ± 6.7 months, rang...
متن کاملRisk factors for choroidal detachment after trabeculectomy with mitomycin C
PURPOSE To evaluate the risk factors for choroidal detachment after trabeculectomy with mitomycin C (MMC). MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively evaluated 420 patients (420 eyes) with glaucoma who underwent trabeculectomy with MMC between June 1, 2005 and December 31, 2010 at Kumamoto University Hospital, Japan.
