[A method of tracing Schlemm's canal in the combined treatment of open-angle glaucoma].
Tracing Schlemm's canal in the course of sinusotomy, added to multiple-modality treatment of open-angle glaucoma, helps improve the localization of the site of initially traced external wall of Schlemm's canal in gonioscopy and carry out laser trabeculopuncture at the site of the intervention with a lower level of laser energy, as well as reduce the possibility of complications and cicatrix of the trabecula and the adjacent tissues. A follow-up of 23 patients over 1.5 years has proved that the described intervention provides a good hypotensive effect and stabilization of the glaucomatous process in the overwhelming majority of patients.
