Objective:To compare the incidence of upper eyelid blepharoptosis after combined phacotrabeculectomy with mitomycin C and phacoemulsification surgeries and the relationship of bleb morphology to the incidence of ptosis.Design:Retrospective observation study.Participants:We included 46 patients after combined phacotrabeculectomy and 44 patients with phacoemulsification in the former group, and all eyes underwent a standardized two-site surgery with intra-operative mitomycin C.Results:There were 8 eyes (17.4%) and 5 eyes (11.4%) with postoperative ptosis in the phacotrabeculectomy and phacoemulsification groups, respectively (P = 0.342). In multivariate regression analysis, reduced total bleb area was significantly associated with upper eyelid ptosis after adjusting for age, gender, and type of anesthesia. The trend seemed to show that increased bleb height was also associated with ptosis, but this did not reach statistical significance.Conclusions:Incidence of persistent ptosis after phacoemulsification combined with trabeculectomy and mitomycin C is similar compared to stand alone phacoemulsification surgery in a multiethnic Asian population. Bleb morphology may play an important role in postoperative ptosis development and should be considered in the evaluation of upper eyelid blepharoptosis. 相似文献
Purpose : First, to assess the safety and efficacy of using 5‐fluorouracil (5‐FU) to improve trabeculectomy and phacotrabeculectomy success rates, and second, to assess the efficacy of intraoperative and reduced postoperative 5‐FU following trabeculectomy compared with a more intensive course of postoperative 5‐FU alone. Methods : In a retrospective, unmatched, non‐randomized consecutive series study, 186 eyes of 186 patients who had filtration surgery were followed for 2 years in four groups: 51 patients had undergone trabeculectomy surgery with postoperative 5‐FU, 51 had phacotrabeculectomy with postoperative 5‐FU, 56 had trabeculectomy with both intraoperative and postoperative 5‐FU, and 28 patients had trabeculectomy without antifibrotics. Results : At all times mean intraocular pressure (IOP) was reduced in all groups (P < 0.001 for each group). Success was defined as IOP < 16 mmHg and > 30% IOP reduction at the 2‐year follow up. It was achieved in 71% of the trabeculectomy patients with intraoperative and postoperative 5‐FU, 76% of the trabeculectomy group with only postoperative 5‐FU, 55% of the phacotrabeculectomy/ 5‐FU group, and in 29% of the trabeculectomy‐only eyes (between‐group differences P < 0.01). Success rates were not significantly different for the intraoperative and postoperative 5‐FU trabeculectomy versus the postoperative 5‐FU‐only eyes, but the former had fewer postoperative 5‐FU injections and corneal ulceration (P < 0.01 for both). Conclusions : 5‐Fluorouracil was safe and improved trabeculectomy survival. Intraoperative 5‐FU allowed fewer postoperative 5‐FU injections and fewer side‐effects without compromising success rates. Phacotrabeculectomy with postoperative 5‐FU had a lower surgical success rate than did trabeculectomy with 5‐FU and this was not statistically different from trabeculectomy without 5‐FU. 相似文献
Our study retrospectively reviewed the surgical outcomes up to 3mo of 38 consecutive Chinese glaucoma patients who underwent trabeculectomy (n=18) or phacotrabeculectomy (n=20). Baseline age, visual acuity, and intraocular pressure were comparable. Intraocular pressure from post-operative 1d to 3mo were similar between 2 groups. Complete success was achieved in 65% of phacotrabeculectomy, and 66.7% of trabeculectomy cases; while failure occurred in 16.7% of phacotrabeculectomy, and 10% of trabeculectomy cases at 3mo. Phacotrabeculectomy group consistently showed better improvement in visual acuity. Diffuse blebs occurred in 65% of phacotrabeculectomy and 83% of trabeculectomy eyes; and flat blebs in 35% of phacotrabeculectomy, but none after trabeculectomy. There was more hypotony (5% vs 0) after phacotrabeculectomy. To conclude, phacotrabeculectomy and trabeculectomy demonstrated comparable intraocular pressure control up to 3mo post-operatively. However, phacotrabeculectomy patients had better visual acuity improvement. Nonetheless, more diffuse bleb and less hypotony were present following trabeculectomy. 相似文献
Purpose:To compare the bleb morphology by Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomography (ASOCT) and clinical outcome after Phacotrabeculectomy with either mitomycin C or Ologen implant.Methods:In a prospective interventional active controlled study, 93 patients aged 18 years and above underwent phacotrabeculectomy with either mitomycin C (53 eyes) or ologen implant (40 eyes), followed up for 12 months. The primary outcome measure was to note the evolution of bleb morphology by ASOCT in the two groups over 12 months. Secondary outcome measures were mean IOP, reduction in the need for anti-glaucoma medications, and complications seen in the two groups.Results:All parameters in the two groups were comparable preoperatively (P>0.05). Best corrected visual acuity at 12 months was 0.38±0.27 in mitomycin group and 0.31±0.23 in ologen group (P=0.151). Post-operative IOP at 12 months was 14.09±3.1mmHg (95%CI 13.22-14.97) in mitomycin group, and 13.25±2.5 mmHg (95%CI 12.40-14.30) in ologen group (P=0.254).The mean number of medications was 0.36±0.68 in mitomycin group and 0.38+/-0.70 in ologen group at 12 months (P=0.91). Overall success was achieved in 98.1 % of patients in mitomycin group and 90 % of patients in ologen group at 12 months. No major sight-threatening complications were noted in any group. AS-OCT imaging at 12 months showed multiform reflectivity with multiple large cystic spaces in both groups, with good IOP control.Conclusion:Phacotrabeculectomy using Mitomycin C and Ologen implant resulted in similar morphologic and functioning blebs at one year with comparable efficacy in controlling intraocular pressure. 相似文献
