Summary

Purpose:

To assess the safety and efficacy of Viscotrabeculotomy Versus trabeculectomy with MMC for the management of medically uncontrolled steroid induced glaucoma.

Patients and methods:

A retrospective review of 86 eyes of 67 patients with medically uncontrolled SIG who underwent either viscotrabeculotomy (VT) or trabeculectomy with MMC (Trab-MMC) at Mansoura Ophthalmic Center (Mansoura, Egypt) between January 2008, and December 2017 was conducted.

Keywords:

Steroid induced glaucoma, trabeculectomy, trabeculotomy and MMC.

Conditions

  • Steroid-Induced Glaucoma

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Viscotrabeculotomy Versus trabeculectomy with "MMC"

Viscotrabeculotomy involved the creation of a partial thickness scleral flap, followed by localization of Schlemm's canal by radial incisions.High viscosity sodium hyaluronate was injected into Schlemm's canal.Trabeculotomy was completed using the standard metal Harm's trabeculotome.The scleral flap was then secured and conjunctival closure ensued.Trabeculectomy technique involved a creation of a limbal-based conjunctival flap, followed by creation of a half-thickness sclera flap. MMC was applied underneath the conjunctival flap.The procedure was completed with both sclera and conjunctiva closed by 10/0 nylon sutures.
