Treatment of malignant glaucoma with contact transscleral cyclophotocoagulation.
Fivecasesofpseudophakicmalignant glaucoma were successfully treated with a single session of contact transscleralcyclophotocoagulation(CTCP) withdiodelaser(twenty4-Jspotsover 360°,1.5mmposterior to the limbus) after failureofNd:YAGlaserhyaloidotomy and vitreolysis. All patients except for case 2 had a preoperative diagnosis of chronic angle-closure glaucoma. At the end of the followup, all the ...
متن کاملA comparison of neodymium: yttrium aluminum garnet and diode laser transscleral cyclophotocoagulation and cyclocryotherapy.
The cyclodestructive effects of cyclocryotherapy and of the neodymium:yttrium aluminum garnet (Nd:YAG) and diode laser transscleral cyclophotocoagulation were investigated in phakic and pseudophakic cadaver eyes using a modified Miyake posterior-view technique and light microscopy. Cyclocryotherapy to -80 degrees C was applied with a 2.5-mm diameter tip, 1 and 2 mm from the limbus. Freezing at ...
متن کاملMicropulse versus continuous wave transscleral diode cyclophotocoagulation in refractory glaucoma: a randomized exploratory study.
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of micropulse and continuous wave diode transscleral cyclophotocoagulation in refractory glaucoma. DESIGN Randomized, comparative, exploratory study in a tertiary hospital setting. PARTICIPANTS Patients with refractory, end-stage glaucoma.

متن کاملMicropulse transscleral diode laser cyclophotocoagulation in the treatment of refractory glaucoma.
BACKGROUND Transscleral diode laser cyclophotocoagulation (TSCPC) is an established method of treatment for refractory glaucoma, but is associated with significant complications. This study evaluates the efficacy and safety of a new form of TSCPC using micropulse diode laser and trans-pars plana treatment with a novel contact probe. METHODS Prospective interventional case series of 40 eyes of...
متن کاملDiode laser transscleral cyclophotocoagulation in the treatment of refractory glaucoma with iris melanocytoma.
Iris melanocytoma is a rare melanocytic nevus with distinctive clinical and pathologic features. Secondary glaucoma may develop rapidly and respond poorly to glaucoma medication in some cases. However, few data are available in the literature with respect to the appropriate treatment for refractory glaucoma associated with iris melanocytoma. Herein, we present a 28-year-old man with blurred vis...
