One-year results of double site versus single site rigid probe viscotrabeculotomy in primary congenital glaucoma.
Eur J Ophthalmol
January 2025
Ophthalmology, Faculty of Medicine, Mansoura University, Egypt.
Study Purpose: to compare single- site viscotrabeculotomy in one eye and double-site rigid probe viscotrabeculotomy in the other eye of the same patient with Primary congenital glaucoma to evaluate the effect of the extent of angle treatment on success rate in the study's locality.
Patients And Methods: This prospective randomized study included 70 eyes of 35 children diagnosed with bilateral PCG who attended Mansoura Ophthalmic Center from June 2021 to July 2023. For each patient, one eye underwent single-site rigid probe viscotrabeculotomy (Group S: 35 eyes) and the fellow eye underwent double- site rigid probe viscotrabeculotomy (Group D: 35 eyes).
Two-year randomized controlled trial of circumferential versus segmental ab externo angle surgery in patients with primary open angle glaucoma.
Jpn J Ophthalmol
January 2025
Faculty of Medicine, Alexandria University, Alexandria, Egypt.
Purpose: To compare the surgical outcomes of visco-circumferential-suture-trabeculotomy (VCST) and rigid probe segmental viscotrabeculotomy (VT) in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG).
Study Design: A prospective randomized controlled study.
Patients And Methods: Patients presenting with POAG and operated upon in Mansoura Ophthalmic Center in Mansoura, Egypt between February 2017 and September 2021 were enrolled.
Purpose: To assess the safety and efficacy of a modified suprachoroidal silicone tube (SST) shunt in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and pseudo-exfoliative glaucoma (PXG) in this experimental study.
Methods: In this single-center, retrospective longitudinal data analysis 66 eyes of 59 patients having POAG and PXG were included and treated with modified SST shunt in combination with cataract or as a stand-alone procedure. Pre- and postoperative intraocular pressure (IOP), best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), C/D ratio and ocular adverse events (AEs) were assessed in all participants.
Complications After Incisional/Excisional Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery-An Update and Literature Review.
Semin Ophthalmol
January 2025
Glaucoma Service, LV Prasad Eye Institute, Hyderabad, India.
Purpose: To discuss comprehensively the varied complications after stent-less incisional or excisional minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS).
Method: A review of reported complications after stent-less MIGS procedures including gonioscopy-assisted transluminal trabeculotomy (GATT), bent needle goniectomy (BANG), Kahook-dual blade goniotomy, and microincisional trabeculectomy (MIT) published between 2014-2024, were analyzed and summarized.
Results: Apart from hyphema, peripheral anterior synechiae, and intraocular pressure spikes, other vision-threatening complications like cyclodialysis, Descemet's detachment, corneal edema, iridodilalysis, vitreous loss or vitreous hemorrhage can also occur intra- or postoperatively after any incisional or excisional MIGS procedures.

Purpose: To assess the efficacy and safety of PreserFlo MicroShunt (PMS) combined with mitomycin C in patients with medically treated primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG).
Study Design: A retrospective observational study.
Methods: The study examined 83 eyes from 83 patients with medically treated glaucoma surgery naive POAG.
