15-years of experience of cataract and glaucoma surgery with phacoemulsification combined with non-penetrating deep sclerectomy
Abstract
PURPOSE: Analysis of long-term results of cataract phacoemulsification combined with non-penetrating deep sclerectomy (NPDS) and lens capsule drainage.
METHODS: The study included 67 patients (107 eyes) with cataract and glaucoma. Mean patient age at the time of surgery was 64.3±8.1 (51-84) years. Standard ophthalmological examination was performed in all cases. BCVA before surgery ranged from light perception to 1.0 (0.44±0.12). Mean preoperative IOP was 26.4±3.9 (16 to 45) mm Hg. Mild stage of glaucoma was detected in 18 (16.8%) eyes, moderate stage — in 64 (59.8%) eyes, advanced stage — in 20 (18.7%) eyes and terminal stage — in 5 (4.7%) eyes. The number of topical hypotensive drugs in the preoperative period ranged from 1 to 3 (2.6±0.75). A combined surgical treatment (phaco + NPDS + lens capsule drainage) was performed. Follow-up was 15 to 17 (15.8±0.9) years.
RESULTS: By the end of the follow-up period average BCVA was 0.59±0.12, which is 0.15 higher than before surgery (p<0.05). Mean IOP was 17.8±3.1 (8 to 25) mm Hg, the difference with pre-operative parameters was statistically significant (8.6 mm Hg; p<0.05). On average, patients received 1.4±0.6 (0 to 2) hypotensive drug instillations, which is 1.2 less than before the operation, statistical trend is significant (0.05<p<0.1). Re-operations were needed in 22.4% of cases and included laser descemetogoniopuncture (7.4%), NPDS (9.3%) and ExPRESS drainage implantation (5.6%). The progression of glaucoma process in patients with IOP levels below the individual norm was observed in 35.5% of cases, and stabilization — in 64.5% (n=69), of which 37 patients (53.6%) — without the use of hypotensive drugs.
CONCLUSION: The article discusses a surgical modification of the classical non-penetrating deep sclerectomy combined with cataract phacoemulsification and lens capsule drainage. A 15-years follow-up analysis is presented. The proposed combined surgery may be recommended for use in clinical practice for treatment of patients with cataract and primary open-angle glaucoma.
