"Long-term safety and efficacy of injection mitomycin C(MMC) versus sponge application in trabeculectomies".

Aims: To compare the long-term safety and efficacy of subconjunctival injection mitomycin C(MMC) with conventional sponge applied MMC during trabeculectomy.

Methods And Material: Retrospective analysis of 98 eyes of 90 patients who underwent trabeculectomy with Mitomycin C were divided into two groups, group 1- sponge (n = 52) and group 2- Injection(n = 46). Follow-up data were collected on day one, day 15, one month, three months, six months, one year, two years and three years.

Long-term outcomes of Mitomycin-C augmented trabeculectomy using subconjunctival injections versus soaked sponges: a randomised controlled trial.

Purpose: To compare the safety and efficacy of subconjunctival injection of Mitomycin C(MMC) with sponge-applied MMC during trabeculectomy.

Methods: This prospective, randomised, interventional study was conducted on consecutive patients with uncontrolled glaucoma. 137 patients were randomised into an Injection group (Group 1, n = 66) and a sponge group (Group 2, n = 71).
