[Ligation of the retrobulbar vascular-nervous bunch during performance of evisceration and enucleation using titanic clips in ophthalmic surgery].

The efficacy of hemostasis achievement during conduction of a retrobulbar vascular-nervous bunch ligation (RVNBL), using titanic clips while evisceroenucleation performance, was studied up. A comparative analysis of clinical and functional results of surgical treatment of 36 patients, suffering terminal dolorous glaucoma and disaster of a sympathetic ophthalmia complication after an eye penetrating wounding occurrence. In 16 patients (the first group) a standard method of a hemostasis achievement was used while doing evisceroenucleation - a deep orbital tamponade for 5 minutes. In 20 patients (the second group) a procedure of RVNBL was conducted, using titanic clips before the bunch transsection doing. There was established, that while doing a RVNPL using titanic clips, a hemorrhage never occurs, a retrobulbar hematoma do not formated, the soft tissues reaction in the early postoperative period is less pronounced, and the patients postoperative rehabilitation period shortens.

[Micro-trephination of the limbus in neovascular glaucoma]. / Mikrotrepanatsiia limba pri neovaskuliarnoi glaukome.

Microtrephination of the limb was carried out for neovascular glaucoma on 112 eyes. The technique of the operation is described and its results are analyzed. Electric microtrephine (0.6 mm) allows making perforations in the limb as oblique microchannels connecting the anterior chamber and the subconjunctival space. Mitomycin C, an antimetabolic drug, was used for neovascularization control near the channels and filtration pad. High efficiency, low invasiveness, and low incidence of postoperative complications recommend this operation as an alternative method for the treatment of neovascular glaucoma.
