METHOD FOR SURGICAL MANAGEMENT OF GLAUCOMA WITH MINIMALLY INVASIVE SPONGE DRAINAGE OF ANTERIOR CHAMBER

摘要

FIELD: medicine.SUBSTANCE: episcleral flap is cut out. A cavity of the anterior chamber is filled with sterile air. That is followed by creating an opening at the base of the cut-out episcleral bed. The above openings are created by pricking in and out with a curved non-traumatic needle through the cavity of the anterior chamber in parallel to a limb. That is followed by placing Alloplant biomaterial for the sponge drainage into the scleroscleral space. The episcleral flap is sutured to the periphery of the donor bed. Sawing motions are performed by enlarging the filter holes gradually. The sutures are removed. A conjunctival wound is closed.EFFECT: method enables the higher clinical effectiveness of the surgical management of glaucoma by the graduated filtration of the chamber moisture, avoids an acute decompression of the anterior eye chamber that in turn prevents intra- and postoperative complications and scleroscleral adhesions.5 dwg, 2 ex
