To describe the results of vitrectomy and partial capsulectomy via anterior approach surgical technique in treatment of chronic postoperative endophthalmitis (CPE).
Clinical records of 9 patients treated for CPE between 2006 and 2010 were reviewed retrospectively. All of these patients were treated with vitrectomy and partial capsulectomy via anterior approach.
Six of 9 patients were male. The average patients' age was (60±8.1) years. The average period between cataract extraction and onset of signs and symptoms was (3.6±1.3) weeks. The average presenting visual acuity was 0.3±0.1 and the average final post operative visual acuity was 0.7±0.2. The mean follow-up period was (28.1±8.9) weeks. In all patients, the inflammation subsided after surgery.
Our results suggest that anterior vitrectomy and partial capsulectomy via anterior approach may be considered as potentially useful and relatively less invasive technique to treat CPE.
描述经前路手术技术行玻璃体切除术和部分晶状体囊切除术治疗慢性术后眼内炎(CPE)的结果。
回顾性分析2006年至2010年间9例接受CPE治疗患者的临床记录。所有这些患者均接受了经前路玻璃体切除术和部分晶状体囊切除术。
9例患者中有6例为男性。患者平均年龄为(60±8.1)岁。白内障摘除术至体征和症状出现的平均时间为(3.6±1.3)周。术前平均视力为0.3±0.1,术后最终平均视力为0.7±0.2。平均随访期为(28.1±8.9)周。所有患者术后炎症均消退。
我们的结果表明,经前路玻璃体切除术和部分晶状体囊切除术可被视为治疗CPE的潜在有用且侵入性相对较小的技术。
