Abstract

Capsular block syndrome (CBS) is a rare complication of cataract surgery. Small capsulorhexis diameter, inadequate removing of the viscoelastic substance at the end of surgery and remaining cortical remnants are the most important risk factors for the development of CBS. In this case report, four cases with CBS are presented with the following signs: slight anterior chamber shallowing, forward displacement of the intraocular lens (IOL), posterior capsule distension, closure of the anterior capsule aperture with IOL optic, and accumulation of transparent or milky fluid between IOL and posterior capsule. All cases were treated successfully with Nd:YAG laser anterior or posterior capsulotomy.

Özet

Kapsüler blok sendromu (KBS) katarakt cerrahisinin nadir bir komplikasyonudur. KBS’nin ortaya çıkmasında en önemli risk faktörleri; kapsüloreksis çapının küçüklüğü, cerrahi sonunda viskoelastik maddenin iyice temizlenmemesi ve kortikal artıkların kalmasıdır. Bu olgu sunumunda hafif ön kamara daralması, göz içi lenste öne doğru yer değiştirme, arka kapsülde distansiyon, ön kapsül açıklığının lens optiği ile kapanması ve lens optiği ile arka kapsül arasına şeffaf veya süt benzeri materyal birikimi bulguları olan 4 olgu sunulmuştur. Tüm olgular Nd:YAG lazer ön veya arka kapsülotomi ile başarılı bir şekilde tedavi edilmiştir.
