Abstract

Purpose: Acute angle-closure glaucoma (AACG) resulting from massive intraocular hemorrhage is a rare and catastrophic complication. Method: In this study, a 71-year-old male who was admitted to our clinic with sudden painful loss of vision in his right eye is presented. Results: The patient's history revealed a diagnosis of chronic renal failure. His visual acuity was no light perception in the right eye and 0.4 in the left eye. There were conjunctival hyperemia, chemosis and total hyphema in the right eye. Intraocular pressure was 40 mmHg on the right and 13 mmHg on the left eye. In the ultrasonic examination there was narrowing of the anterior chamber due to anterior displacement of the iris-lens diaphragm and closure of the iridocorneal angle and total hyphema accompanying subretinal massive hemorrhage. AACG secondary to intraocular hemorrhage was diagnosed and treated with antiglaucomatous agents. Two months later phthisical changes (hypotonic and shrunken globe) were observed in this eye. Discussion: Patients with chronic renal failure should be closely followed up for the prevention of hemorrhagic complications.

Özet

Amaç: Şiddetli göziçi kanamalarına bağlı gelişen akut açı kapanması glokomu (AAKG) nadir görülen ve gözü tahrip edici bir komplikasyondur. Yöntem: Bu çalışmada sağ gözündeki ağrılı görme kaybı şikayeti ile kliniğimize başvuran 71 yaşındaki erkek olgu sunulmaktadır. Sonuçlar: Öyküsünde kronik böbrek yetmezliği tanısı bulunan olgunun görme keskinliği sağ gözde ışık hissi negatif, sol gözde 0.4 düzeyindeydi. Konjonktival hiperemi, kemozis ve total hifeması bulunan olgunun göziçi basınçları sağda 40 mmHg, solda 13 mmHg idi. Ultrasonik incelemede retina altı yaygın kanamaya eşlik eden iris-lens diyaframının öne gelmesi sonucu ön kamarada daralma, iridokorneal açı kapanması ve total hifema mevcuttu. Göziçi kanamasına ikincil AAKG tanısı konulan olgu antiglokomatöz ajanlarla tedavi edildi. İki ay sonra hastanın gözünde fitizik değişikliklerin (hipotonik ve büzüşmüş glop) geliştiği görüldü. Tartışma: Kronik böbrek yetmezliği olan olgular kanama komplikasyonlarının önlenmesi açısından yakın bir şekilde takip edilmelidir.
