To present the outcomes of Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation (AGV) in glaucoma secondary to Fuchs uveitis syndrome (FUS).
In this retrospective chart review, two definitions of success were used: 6 mmHg ≤intraocular pressure (IOP) ≤21 mmHg (success 1), and 6 mmHg ≤ IOP ≤21 mmHg and at least 25% reduction from baseline (success 2). Depending on the need of postoperative antiglaucoma medication, success was defined as either complete or qualified.
In total, 17 eyes of 17 patients were included. Complete success rates (both definitions) were 23.5% (n = 17) after 1 year and 23% (n = 13) after 3 years. Qualified success rates (both definitions) were 58.3% (n = 17) after 1 and 38.4% (n = 13) after 3 years. Encapsulated bleb formation was the most common complication (47% of eyes).
AGV was moderately successful in the management of glaucoma secondary to FUS. Success rates are improved by medications, needling, and cycloablative procedures.
介绍 Ahmed 青光眼引流阀植入(AGV)治疗 Fuchs 葡萄膜炎综合征(FUS)继发青光眼的结果。
在这项回顾性图表研究中,使用了两种成功定义:眼压(IOP)为 6mmHg≤6mmHg≤21mmHg(成功 1),IOP 为 6mmHg≤6mmHg≤21mmHg,且与基线相比降低至少 25%(成功 2)。根据术后抗青光眼药物的需要,成功定义为完全或合格。
共纳入 17 例患者的 17 只眼。术后 1 年完全成功率(两种定义)分别为 23.5%(n=17)和 23%(n=13),术后 3 年分别为 23.5%(n=17)和 23%(n=13)。完全成功率(两种定义)分别为 58.3%(n=17)和 38.4%(n=13)。包膜性滤过泡形成是最常见的并发症(47%的眼)。
AGV 在治疗 FUS 继发青光眼方面效果中等。通过药物治疗、针刺和环光凝术可提高成功率。
