Abstract

Objective: The aim of the study is evaluating the clinical results, efficacy and safety of Ex-PRESS P200 glaucoma implant in cases with primary open angle glaucoma. Material and Method: This study includes 21 eyes of 21 primary open angle glaucoma cases who were unresponsive to medical treatment. Demographic characteristics, preoperative and postoperative complete ocular examination results, number of antiglaucomatous drug use, peroperative and postoperative complications and additional medical interventions were obtained from patients’ files, retrospectively. Results: This study includes 13 (61.9%) males, 8 (38.1%) females and totally 21 patients with primary open angle glaucoma. The mean follow up time was 14.95±7.22 months, the range of the follow up time was between 6 to 30 months. The baseline mean intraocular pressure was 25.9±8.54, and it was 14.81±5.31 at the last visit (p<0.05). The reduction was 42.8% when the preoperative and last visit’s intraocular pressure values were compared. The average number of antiglaucomatous drugs was 3.85 preoperatively and 1.57 at the last visit (p<0.05). The most common postoperative complication was bleb leakage and the other early complications were hypotonia, corneal edema, iris-implant touch, choroidal effusion, intravitreal hemorrhage, hyphema; and the late complications were endophthalmitis, vitreomacular traction and corneal opacification. At the last visit, the complete success rate was 38.1% and the qualified success rate was 81% in all patients. Conclusion: Ex-PRESS P200 glaucoma shunt implantation may be an effective procedure for medically uncontrolled primary open angle glaucoma patients with significantly lower use of antiglaucomatous medications and lower intraocular pressure results when comparing preoperative and postoperative values but there are some complications related to the implant or surgical treatment.

Özet

Amaç: Primer açık açılı glokom olgularında Ex-PRESS P200 glokom implantı uygulamasının klinik sonuçlarını, etkinliğini ve güvenilirliğini değerlendirmek.Gereç ve Yöntem: Medikal tedaviye dirençli 21 primer açık açılı glokom olgusunun 21 gözü çalışmaya dahil edildi. Olguların demog -rafik özelliklerine, Ex-PRESS P200 implantasyonu öncesi ve sonrası tam oftalmolojik muayene sonuçlarına, kullandıkları antiglokomatöz etken madde sayılarına, ameliyatta ya da sonrasında gelişen komplikasyonlara ve ek müdahalelere yönelik bilgilere hasta dosyalarından geriye dönük olarak ulaşıldı.Bulgular: Çalışma 13’ü (%61,9) erkek, 8’i (%38,1) kadın olmak üzere toplam 21 primer açık açılı glokom hastasının 21 gözünü içermektedir. Ortalama takip süresi 14,95±7,22 ay olmak üzere, takip süresi 6-30 ay arasında değişmekteydi. Ameliyat öncesi ortalama25,9±8,54 olan göz içi basıncı, son kontrolde 14,81±5,31 bulundu (p<0,05). Göz içi basınç düşüşü %42,8 olarak bulundu. Ameliyat öncesi kullanılan etken madde sayısı ortalaması 3,85 iken, son kontrolde 1,57 olarak bulundu (p<0,05). Olguların %57,1’inde komplikasyon görülmedi. Ameliyat sonrası en sık görülen komplikasyon bleb sızıntısı olup, diğer erken dönem komplikasyonları; hipotoni, korneal ödem, iris-implant teması, koroidal efüzyon, vitre içi hemoraji, hifema, geç dönem komplikasyonları ise endoftalmi, vitreomakülertraksiyon ve korneal opaklaşma olarak bulundu. Son kontrolde olguların %38,1’inde tam başarı sağlanırken, %81’inde kısmi başarı sağlanmıştır.Sonuç: Ex-PRESS P200 implant, primer açık açılı glokom olgularında ameliyat öncesi döneme göre göz içi basıncında ve kullanılanilaç sayısında azalma sağlaması nedeniyle efektif bir prosedür olarak uygulanabilmekle beraber, implanta ya da cerrahi uygulamayabağlı yan etkiler de bulunmaktadır.
