Department of Ophthalmology, Military Institute of Medicine, Szaserów Street 128, 04-141 Warsaw, Poland.
Purpose: The aim of this study was twofold: first, to evaluate the predisposing factors for occurrence of malignant glaucoma and second, to compare frequency of malignant glaucoma depending on the type of primary glaucoma surgery.
Methods: Retrospective analysis was performed in 1689 consecutive patients who underwent glaucoma surgery alone or combined with phacoemulsification. Data collected included the type of surgery, width of the filtration angle, presence or absence of malignant glaucoma in the postoperative period, and time from the primary surgery to malignant glaucoma occurrence.

During the years 1977-1986, 338 patients at the University Eye Clinic were diagnosed as having congenital glaucoma. This paper presents our experience of the management of 88 of these patients (161 eyes) who had a follow-up of at least 3 years. Medical therapy alone reduced the intraocular pressure to less than 21 mmHg in 17 eyes (11.

The lowering of the intraocular pressure after the operation was obtained in 96% of the operated patients, in 88% of them without any additional pharmacological treatment. The complications rate was comparable with those which are occuring after trabeculectomy or iridencleisis.

Klin Monbl Augenheilkd
November 1985
In 78 eyes treated by different fistulizing procedures (57 by goniotrepanation or trabeculectomy, 13 by Elliot trepanation and 8 by iridencleisis) extracapsular cataract extraction with implantation of posterior chamber lenses was performed. A sector iridectomy had to be performed in about 40% of the eyes because of difficulties in dilatation of the pupils and posterior synechiae. Postoperatively the IOP was regulated in 83% of all eyes without additional topical medication; a second fistulizing procedure was only necessary in one eye.
