Ex-PRESS mini-shunt implanted in a pregnant patient with iridocorneal endothelial syndrome.

Introduction: The failure rate of both filtration surgery and of aqueous shunt implantation is higher for iridocorneal endothelial syndrome than in other scenarios, due to the continuous proliferation of abnormal endothelial cells over the trabecular meshwork and the filtration area and also due to the more pronounced cicatrizing response shown by these young patients. We present the first case ever described in the literature of a pregnant patient with iridocorneal endothelial syndrome and uncontrolled ocular hypertension who was implanted an Ex-PRESS mini-shunt.

Clinical Case: A 35-year-old female presented with diminution of vision in the left eye for 2 months.

Management of congenital glaucoma in neurofibromatosis type 1: a report of two cases.

The most frequent ophthalmic lesions associated to neurofibromatosis type 1 include iris Lisch nodules, optic nerve gliomas, and neurofibromas located on the eyelid, conjunctiva or orbit. Glaucoma is much less frequent, and it may be difficult to diagnose and treat. We present two patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 and associated congenital glaucoma.
