Nonpenetrating filtering surgery

Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2002
Trabeculectomy is currently the standard filtration procedure for surgical treatment of glaucoma. This technique has advantages over full thickness procedures but can cause early postoperative complications such as hyphema, shallow or flat anterior chamber, hypotony with the risk of choroidal detachment, and maculopathy.

Filtering Surgery in Children: Barriers to Success

Ophthalmology, 1979
The use of trabeculectomy in advanced pediatric glaucoma is reviewed. Intraocular pressure was controlled in only 50% of the patients, and the best visual results was 20/200. Complications of vitreous loss, scleral collapse, ectasia, retinal detachment, and endophthalmitis were encountered.

Utility of insufflation filters in laparoscopic surgery

Surgical Endoscopy, 1998
To determine whether filters, regularly used as part of the insufflator tubing during laparoscopic surgery, trap microbial and particulate matter from CO2 tanks, thus preventing passage from one patient to another.A total of 67 used filters were collected from 17 CO2 tanks and six insufflation machines at three local hospitals, and sterile unused ...

Late Endophthalmitis after Filtering Surgery

American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1971
The variety of types of underlying glau­ coma present in our series of 11 cases is shown in Table 1. Seven had had thermal sclerectomies performed by alternately in­ cising sharply and cauterizing the limbal wound until a fistula is made into the ante­ rior chamber. Three patients had posterior lip sclerectomies performed with a Holth punch.

A Conjunctival Retractor for Glaucoma Filtering Surgery

Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging Retina, 2004
Abstract. A new conjunctival retractor provides the desired exposure of the scleral bed during filtering surgery. It elevates the conjunctiva without causing crush injury and allows excellent exposure of the scleral bed with a smaller incision than is required when non-toothed forceps or Week cell sponges are used.
