Abstract

Aim: To evaluate demographic characteristics, intraoperative problems and postoperative complications of cataract surgery in patients with pseudoexfoliation (PEX) syndrome Material and Method: The files of patients who underwent cataract surgery in the last 1 year were retrospectively scanned and 147 eyes of 130 patients with PEX were included. Examination findings were obtained from medical records retrospectively with information on surgery and postoperative follow-up information. Patients were divided into 2 groups with and without PEX. Preoperative and postoperative visual acuities, intraocular pressure (IOP), pupil dilatation, presence of zone weakness, intraoperative and postoperative complications, and patients with and without glaucoma were noted separately. Results: Among the patients included in the study were 71 men (54.6%) and 59 women (45.4%). The mean age man was 68,62 ± 8,04 the mean age of women was 67,84 ± 9,64 for females. There was an increase in visual acuity in both groups when compared with the best corrected visual acuity before and after surgery (p<0.001). The postoperative IOP values of the patients were significantly higher statistically significantly lower than preoperative values (p<0.001). The most common preoperative problem was weak dilatation of the pupil, which was 81.75% (n: 112) in all eyes. Conclusion: There are many factors that complicate cataract surgery in patients with PEX, and surgeons should be aware of the potential complications of cataract surgery in these patients.

Özet

Amaç: Psödoeksfoliasyon(PEKS) Sendromu ve glokomu olan hastaların demografik özellikleri, cerrahi sırasında karşılaşılabilecek problemleri ve postoperatif komplikasyonları değerlendirmek. Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmaya son 1 yıl içerisinde katarakt cerrahisi geçiren hastaların dosyaları retrospektif taranarak, PEKS tanılı 130 hastanın 147 gözü dahil edildi. Muayene bulguları, cerrahi ve postoperatif takip bilgileri geriye dönük olarak tıbbi kayıtlardan alındı. Hastalar PEKS olan ve olmayan olacak şekilde 2 gruba ayrıldı. Ameliyat öncesi ve sonrası görme keskinlikleri, göz içi basınçları (GİB), pupil dilatasyonu, zonül zayıflığı olup olmadığı, intraoperatif ve postoperatif komplikasyonlar ile glokomu olan ve olmayan hastalar ayrı ayrı not edildi Bulgular: Çalışmaya dâhil edilen hastaları 71’i erkek (%54,6), 59’u(%45,4) kadındı. Yaş ortalaması erkeklerde 68,62±8,04 iken, kadınlarda 67,84±9,64 idi. Ameliyat öncesi zonül zayıflığı olan göz sayısı 69, olmayan göz sayısı ise 78 idi. Ameliyat öncesi ve sonrası düzeltilmiş en iyi görme keskinlikleri açısından karşılaştırıldıklarında her iki grupta da görme düzeyinde artış vardı ve istatistiksel olarak ileri düzeyde anlamlıydı (p<0.001). Hastaların ameliyat sonrası GİB değerleri ameliyat öncesi değerlere göre istatistiksel olarak anlamlı derecede daha düşüktü (p<0.001). Hastalarda ameliyat öncesi en sık görülen problem pupillanın zayıf dilatasyonu idi ve bu oran tüm gözler içinde %81,75 (n:112) idi. Sonuç: PEKS hastalarında katarakt cerrahisini zorlaştıran birçok faktör bulunmaktadır ve cerrahlar bu hastalarda katarakt cerrahisinin potansiyel komplikasyonlarının farkında olmalıdır.
