Abstract

In this case we reported a metallic fragment originated from aspiration cannula and dropped onto the iris during phacoemulsification surgery. A 53-year old patient with blurry vision on the right eye was planned to have cataract surgery. During the cortex removal of an uncomplicated surgery, a metallic fragment detached from the aspiration cannula and placed on the iris. The fragment was noticed and removed by a forceps after filling the anterior chamber with viscoelastic material. The second instruments used in phacoemulsification surgery should be controlled with certain intervals and the surgeon should inspect these instruments carefully before, during and after the surgery in order not to encounter such complications.

Özet

Bu olgu sunumunda fakoemülsifikasyon cerrahisi sırasında aspirasyon kanülünden iris üzerine düşen metalik parça tartışılmıştır. 53 yaşında kadın hastaya sağ gözde bulanık görme şikâyeti ile katarakt cerrahisi planlandı. Sorunsuz fakoemülsifikasyon cerrahisinin korteks temizliği sırasında aspirasyon kanülünün ucundan metalik parça ayrılarak iris dokusu üzerine yerleşti. Bu esnada fark edilen metalik parça ön kamara viskoelastik madde ile doldurulduktan sonra bir tutucu yardımı ile dışarı çıkarıldı. Bu gibi komplikasyonlarla karşılaşmamak için fakoemülsifikasyon cerrahisinde kullanılan ikincil aletlerin belirli aralıklarla kontrol edilmesi ve cerrahın bu aletleri cerrahi öncesinde, sırasında ve sonrasında dikkatli biçimde gözlemlemesi gerekmektedir.
