Summary

Different types of surgery are applied in PCG, including goniotomy, trabeculotomy, glaucoma drainage devices and trabeculectomy. UBM examination of the anterior chamber before surgery can help in the decision to what type of surgery is best for the patient. Aim of the work To study the value of using UBM to select the site and extent of trabeculotomy in pediatric glaucoma and its correlation with surgical outcomes.

Conditions

  • Glaucoma Pediatric

Interventions

PROCEDURE

trabeculotomy ( angle glaucoma surgery )

a scleral flap is raised at the selected site with UBM and a cutdown in shlemm's canal is performed, a metal trabeculotome is used to cannulate and tear through a section of the inner wall of SC and trabeculum into the AC. Closure of the scleral flap and conjunctiva with 10/0 nylon. Viscoelastic is used to dilate the schlemm's canal, form the anterior chamber and decrease the risk of hyphema.
