Our guest surgeons have a novel method of decreasing the risks of scarring and failure of a trabeculectomy surgery for treatment of glaucoma. Their method is to place a Prolene suture under the flap to prevent it from becoming scarred down and fibrosed. This helps to maintain the aqueous outflow via the trabeculectomy and keep the patient’s intra-ocular pressure under control. This is a technique that I have never seen before but it seems like a reasonable approach. What do you think? And have you tried something similar?
Elogiable y simple técnica que puede mejorar y mantener la filtración en casos resistentes o con mucha reacción fibrótica. Lo asocian a 5FU o Mitomicina C , como recomiendan su uso ? los casos de Neovascular colocan anti VEGF u Ozurdex ?
