Abstract

In trabeculectomy, which is still the most commonly performed glaucoma surgery, the presence of a fi ltering bleb can cause postoperative early or late onset problems. Although antimetabolite agents, which improve surgical success, are regulated with modifi cations in dosage and administration over time, problems related to bleb remain. In particular, the effects of mitomycin C (MMC) on tissues and bleb morphology increase the susceptibility to leaks. In this article, bleb leaks, which is a very important problem of fi ltration surgery, approach to the problem and treatment methods will be evaluated in detail

Özet

Halen en sık uygulanan glokom cerrahisi olan trabekülektomide fi ltran blebin varlığı, ameliyat sonrası erken veya geç dönem sorunlara neden olabilmektedir. Cerrahi başarıyı artırmaya yönelik antimetabolit ajanlar zamanla doz ve uygulama şeklindeki modifi kasyonlarla düzenlense de blebe bağlı sorunlar devam etmektedir. Özellikle mitomisin C'nin (MMC) dokular ve bleb morfolojisi üzerindeki etkileri, sızıntılara olan yatkınlığı artırmaktadır. Bu makalede fi ltran cerrahinin oldukça önemli bir sorunu olan bleb sızıntıları, soruna yaklaşım ve tedavi yöntemleri etraflıca değerlendirilecektir.
