Abstract
Purpose
To assess the risk factors for suprachoroidal hemorrhage (SCH) following glaucoma surgery in pediatric patients at a tertiary eye center.
Methods
The medical records of 326 patients (326 eyes) who underwent glaucoma surgery between January 2014, and September 2017 were reviewed retrospectively. Seventeen cases with SCH were compared with 309 controls who underwent uneventful glaucoma surgery during the same period. We documented age, sex, baseline intraocular pressure, glaucoma diagnosis, previous surgery, preoperative axial length, pachymetry, lens status and type of glaucoma surgery performed (whether combined with cataract or other glaucoma procedure or being standalone).
Results
Of the 17 cases of SCH, only a single case occurred intraoperatively; the remainder occurred in the early postoperative period. The most frequent diagnosis was primary congenital glaucoma (PCG), accounting for 10 patients (59%) in cases and 247 (80%) in controls, followed by glaucoma associated with nonacquired ocular anomalies, which accounted for 3 cases (18%) and 22 controls (7%). Aphakia and combined surgeries (in the univariate analysis) were found to be possible risk factors for the development of SCH, with none achieving significance in the multivariable analysis.
Conclusions
In our study cohort, combined surgeries as well aphakia were possible risk factors for SCH.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
