RESUMO
@#AIM: To explore the risk factors of high intraocular pressure after vitrectomy.<p>METHODS: Patients who underwent vitrectomy in our hospital from June 2016 to December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed, general information of patients, intraocular pressure before and after operation and relevant information of operation were recorded, Univariate and Logistic multivariate regression analysis were performed to analyze the risk factors of high intraocular pressure after vitrectomy.<p>RESULTS: Early high intraocular pressure occurred in 49 of 159 eyes(30.8%). Gender and age had no significant effect on the occurrence of high intraocular pressure after vitrectomy(<i>P</i>=0.699; <i>P</i>=0.416). Early high intraocular pressure after vitrectomy was closely correlated with silicone oil filling, combined cataract surgery, total retinal laser photocoagulation and vitreous hemorrhage after vitrectomy, with statistically significant differences(<i>P</i><0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that silicone oil filling, combined cataract surgery, total retinal photocoagulation and postoperative vitreous hemorrhage were independent risk factors affecting the occurrence of early postoperative high intraocular pressure(<i>P</i><0.05).<p>CONCLUSION: Early high intraocular pressure after vitrectomy is the result of multiple factors, which is closely related to silicone oil filling, combined cataract surgery, total retinal photocoagulation and vitreous hemorrhage after vitrectomy.
RESUMO
@#AIM: To investigate the clinical effect of combined laser peripheral iridectomy for primary angle-closure glaucoma.<p>METHODS: A total of 82 eyes were included in 82 patients with primary angle-closure glaucoma who visited our hospital from August 2015 to October 2017. They were randomly divided into two groups. Patients in the simple laser group were performed Nd:YAG laser only. In the combined laser group, 532 semiconductor laser combined with Nd: YAG laser were used for laser peripheral iridectomy. Intraocular pressure(IOP)was measured preoperative and postoperative. Laser energy was recorded. Iridemia were observed.<p>RESULTS: Postoperative IOP increased significantly in the simple laser group compared with the combined laser group, and the differences between the two groups 1h, 1d and 1wk after operation were statistical significances(<i>P</i><0.01). The IOP of the two groups was basically restored to the preoperative level at 1mo postoperatively. The success rate of single laser surgery was significantly lower than that of combined laser surgery(73% <i>vs </i>100%, <i>P</i><0.05). The total energy of Nd:YAG laser was significantly higher than that of the combined laser group(40.16±13.43mJ <i>vs</i> 23.23±6.70mJ, <i>P</i><0.05). There was no significant difference in intraoperative iris bleeding rate between the two groups(33% <i>vs</i> 26%, <i>P</i>>0.05).<p>CONCLUSION: Totally 532 semiconductor laser combined with Nd: YAG laser for peripheral iridectomy has a high rate of penetration, especially for patients without iris recess. It can significantly decreases laser energy, reduces the difficulty of laser operation and relieves intraocular inflammation.
RESUMO
AIM: To study the causes of pyogenic granuloma after hydroxyapatite(HA) orbital implants.METHODS: HA orbital implants (250 cases) in our hospital (68 pegged implants) were reviewed.All patients were followed up from 18 months to 10 years. Implants were removed after medical therapy which was proved to be ineffective.RESULTS: Ten of 250 cases of HA orbital implants developed pyogenic granuloma. Pyogenic granuloma occurred in 1 unpegged implants patient and 9 patients after pegging and drilling of HA implantation over 4～7 years. The pyogenic granulomas were not controlled by medical therapy effectively. Implants were removed in 9 cases except 1 case denied removing and continued medical therapy.CONCLUSION: Pyogenic granuloma was serious complication that occurred after HA orbital implants. Partial vascularization, implant exposure, xenogenic sclera implant, pegging and drilling of HA implantation are risk factors that affect the development of pyogenic granuloma.Pyogenic granuloma hasn't relation with implanted peg material. Pyogenic granuloma denotes the potential implant infection, and all implants should be removed finally.
