Abstract

We aimed to discuss a case with colobomatous micropthalmia and glaucoma and its management. A 42 years old woman whose intraocular pressure (IOP) could not treated with maximal medical therapy was came our clinic and micropthalmia was diagnosed at left eye. IOP was 50 mmHg and the angle was closed with peripheral anterior synechia. There were optic disc coloboma and wide chorioretinal coloboma at posterior segment examination. Mitomycine C (MMC) augmented trabeculectomy was performed at this eye and followed up regular periods. The IOP was maintained 13-15 mmHg without medication during 7 years follow up period after the operation.

Özet

Bu sunumda kolobomatöz mikroftalmi ve glokom birlikteliği olan bir olgu ve tedavisini tartışmayı amaçladık. Sol gözde maksimal tıbbi tedaviye rağmen göz içi basıncı (GİB) kontrolü sağlanamaması nedeniyle kliniğimize sevkedilmiş 42 yaşındaki bayan hastanın muayenesinde, bu gözde mikroftalmi saptandı. GİB 50 mmHg olup, açı periferik anterior sineşilerle (PAS) kapalıydı. Arka segment muayenesinde optik disk kolobomu ve geniş koryoretinal kolobom mevcuttu. Bu göze mitomisin C (MMC) ile trabekülektomi uygulandı ve hasta düzenli aralıklarla takip edildi. Ameliyat sonrası 7 yıllık izleminde GİB ilaçsız 13-15 mmHg düzeyinde seyretti.
