Abstract
Prcis: Second trabeculectomy and glaucoma drainage device implantation offer similar success rates for juvenile open angle glaucoma after initial trabeculectomy failure. However, second trabeculectomies required fewer medications. A quarter of patients in both groups required a third operation after 2.5±2.3 years.
Purpose: To compare outcomes between second trabeculectomy surgery versus glaucoma drainage device (GDD) insertion in juvenile open angle glaucoma (JOAG) patients after primary trabeculectomy failure.
Method: A retrospective review was performed on all JOAG patients who underwent a second glaucoma surgery after primary trabeculectomy failure across 2 tertiary hospitals in Bangkok, Thailand between 2009 and 2020. Demographics, intraoperative reports, and clinical findings were collected. The primary outcomes were complete and qualified success rates at 5 years; secondary outcomes included differences in intraocular pressures and a number of glaucoma medications postoperatively.
Results: Fifty-two eyes of 38 patients underwent a second glaucoma surgery after primary trabeculectomy: 30 had a second trabeculectomy, 17 received a GDD (10 valved, 7 non-valved), and 5 underwent cyclophotocoagulation. Before surgery, there were no significant differences except in mean refractive error. The average follow-up length was 66.9±53.7 months. Qualified success rates were 81.5% and 63.2% at 3 and 5 years (complete success: 55.6% and 42.1%) for the second trabeculectomy group and 80.0% and 70.0% (complete success: 53.3% and 50.0%) for the GDD group, respectively. There were no significant differences in group success or IOP postoperatively. The GDD group required more medications at 5 years (1.3±1.9 vs. 2.3±1.5, P =0.03). Two cases of tube exposure in the GDD group resulted in implant removal. About a quarter of patients in both groups required a third operation after 2.5±2.3 years.
Conclusion: Both second trabeculectomy and GDD insertion are effective treatments for JOAG after trabeculectomy failure. The second trabeculectomy required fewer medications for intraocular pressure control.
结论:第二次小梁切除术和青光眼引流装置植入术治疗首次小梁切除术失败的青少年开角型青光眼的成功率相似。然而,第二次小梁切除术所需的药物较少。两组均有四分之一的患者在2.5±2.3年后需要进行第三次手术。目的:比较原发性小梁切除术失败的青少年型开角型青光眼(JOAG)患者第二次小梁切除术与青光眼引流装置(GDD)置入的疗效。方法:回顾性分析2009年至2020年泰国曼谷两家三级医院原发性小梁切除术失败后接受第二次青光眼手术的所有JOAG患者。收集人口统计学、术中报告和临床结果。5年的主要结局是完全和合格的成功率;次要结局包括术后眼压和青光眼药物数量的差异。结果:38例52眼患者行原发性小梁切除术后第二次青光眼手术:30例行第二次小梁切除术,17例行GDD(有瓣10例,无瓣7例),5例行光凝治疗。手术前,除平均屈光不正外,无显著差异。平均随访时间66.9±53.7个月。第二次小梁切除术组3年和5年的成功率分别为81.5%和63.2%(完全成功率分别为55.6%和42.1%),GDD组的成功率分别为80.0%和70.0%(完全成功率分别为53.3%和50.0%)。两组手术成功率及术后IOP差异无统计学意义。GDD组在5年时需要更多的药物治疗(1.3±1.9 vs 2.3±1.5,P=0.03)。GDD组2例导管暴露导致种植体取出。两组中约有四分之一的患者在2.5±2.3年后需要进行第三次手术。结论:第二次小梁切除术和GDD插入是治疗小梁切除术失败后JOAG的有效方法。第二次小梁切除术所需的IOP控制药物较少。
