Abstract

Purpose: To evaluate peri- and postoperative complications and visual outcomes of cataract surgery with phacoemulsification technique and intraocular lens (IOL) implantation in cases diagnosed as Fuchs' uveitis syndrome (FUS). Materials and Methods: Twentyone eyes of 21 FUS cases who underwent phacoemulsification surgery and IOL implantation were evaluated retrospectively. Cases were evaluated in terms of intraocular pressure (IOP), visual acuity, intraocular inflammation, posterior capsule opasification and other complications. Results: The mean age of 13 (61.9%) male and 8 (38.1%) female patients was 37.9 years. Postoperative mean follow-up time was 245±10.3 days. While preoperative visual acuity ranged between 0.30-1.30 (LogMAR), postoperative acuity ranged between 0.00-0.10 (LogMAR) at the last follow-up visit. Peroperatively, bleeding from peripheral iris (Amsler's sign) was observed in 12 (57.1%) of cases. Mild anterior chamber reaction in 2 cases (9.5%), transient increase in IOP controlled by topical medical therapy in 4 cases (19%) and cystoid macular edema in 1 case (4.7%) were detected postoperatively. Two eyes (9.5%) developed posterior capsule opasification and underwent Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy during follow-up. Conclusion: Phacoemulsification technique with IOL implantation is safe and effective method in patients with cataract secondary to FUS. Postoperatively visual outcomes are quite curative

Özet

Amaç: Fuchs üveiti sendromu (FÜS) tanısı almış olgularda fakoemülsifikasyon yöntemi ile katarakt cerrahisi ve göz içi mercek (GİM) implantasyonunun görsel sonuçlarını, ameliyat sırasında ve sonrasında gelişebilecek komplikasyonları değerlendirmek.Gereç ve Yöntem: FÜS olan ve fakoemülsifikasyon yöntemi ile katarakt cerrahisi ve GİM implantasyonu yapılmış 21 olgunun 21 gözü geriye dönük olarak değerlendirildi. Olgular görme keskinlikleri, göz içi basınçları, göz içi inflamasyonu, arka kapsül opasifikasyonu ve diğer komplikasyonlar açısından değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Hastaların 13'ü (%61.9) erkek, 8'i (%38.1) kadın olup yaş ortalaması 37.9 yıl (28-75 yıl) idi. Ameliyat sonrası ortalama takip süresi 245±10.3 gün idi. Olguların ameliyat öncesi görme keskinliği 0.30-1.30 (LogMAR) arasında iken, ameliyat sonrası en son kontrolde 0.00-0.10 (LogMAR) düzeyinde idi. Ameliyat sırasında olguların 12'sinde (%57.1) periferik iristen kanama (Amsler bulgusu) gözlendi. Ameliyat sonrası olguların 2'sinde (%9.5) hafif şiddette ön kamara reaksiyonu, 4'ünde (%19) topikal medikal tedaviye yanıt veren geçici göz içi basınç artışı, 1'inde (%4.7) ise kistoid maküla ödemi gelişti. Takiplerde arka kapsül opasitesi saptanan 2 göze (%9.5) Nd:YAG lazer kapsülotomi yapıldı.Sonuç: FÜS'lü katarakt olgularında fakoemülsifikasyon yöntemi ve GİM implantasyonu etkin ve güvenilir bir yöntemdir. Cerrahi sonrası görsel sonuçlar yüz güldürücüdür.
