Intraoperative Optical Coherence Tomography Guided Bleb Needling
Two patients with history of trabeculectomy presented with uncontrolled intraocular pressure (IOP) postoperatively. The first patient had a flat and vasularized bleb 10 weeks after the surgery, and the second subject developed encapsulated bleb 3 months postoperatively. Both patients were taken to the operating room and intraoperative optical coherence tomography (OCT) guided bleb needling was ...
متن کامل5.1. 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 کاملBleb needling with subconjunctival ologen insertion using IOL cartridge
We describe a novel technique to bleb needling by injecting subconjunctival ologen through an intraocular lens (IOL) delivery system to modulate wound healing in a failing filter. Bleb needling with 26G needle was performed, followed by subconjunctival injection of a biodegradable collagen implant using an IOL delivery system with cartridge in two eyes with a failing filter and high intraocular...
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 کاملA New Method for Revision of Encapsulated Blebs after Trabeculectomy: Combination of Standard Bleb Needling with Transconjunctival Scleral Flap Sutures Prevents Early Postoperative Hypotony
PURPOSE A simple needling procedure is the standard method for restoring the function of an encapsulated bleb after trabeculectomy. However, postoperative hypotony represents a possible hazard. This study describes a new surgical approach for treating encapsulated blebs with reduced risk of early postoperative hypotony: bleb needling combined with transconjunctival sutures tightening the sclera...
