Abstract
PURPOSE: In this study, the results of trabeculectomy in patients who had primary open angle glaucoma with diabetes mellitus were investigated. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The results of trabeculectomy were compared with 19 eyes of 14 patients who had primary open angle glaucoma with diabetes and 21 eyes of 18 patients who had primary open angle glaucoma without diabetes as a control group. RESULTS: In patients with diabetes, the mean preoperative intraocular pressure(IOP) was 32.09±13.59 mmHg, and the mean postoperative IOP was 12.27±1.66 mmHg. The difference between preoperative and postoperative IOP was significant (p<0.01). In patients without diabetes, the mean preoperative IOP was 34.48±12.44 mmHg, and the mean postoperative IOP was 12.62±10.78 mmHg. The difference preoperative and postoperative of IOP was found significant (p<0.01). When the groups were compared with the each other for age, sex, postoperative follow-up and preoperative and postoperative IOP, the mean difference was not significant (p>0.05). CONCLUSION: It was found that diabetes mellitus is not a risk factor for the success rate of trabeculectomy in patients with primary open angle glaucoma.
Özet
AMAÇ: Bu çalışmada primer açık açılı glokom ve diabetin birlikte görüldüğü olgularda trabekülektomi sonuçları incelendi. GEREÇ VE YÖNTEM: Primer açık açılı glokom(PAAG) nedeni ile trabekülektomi ameliyatı yapılan ve diabeti olan 14 hastanın 19 göz sonuçlan ile PAAG olan ve diabeti olmayan trabekülektomi ameliyatı yapılmış 18 hastanın 21 göz sonuçları karşılaştırıldı. BULGULAR: Diabeti olan glokom olgularının preoperatif göziçi basınç (GİB) değerleri 32.09±3.59 mmHg, postoperatif 12.27±11.66 mmHg idi. Preoperatif ve postoperatif GİB farkı istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bulundu (p 0.05). SONUÇ: Primer açık açılı glokom olgularında diabetin trabekülektomi sonuçlarını etkileyen bir faktör olmadığı görüldü.
