[Technique of suprachoroidal space drainage in the prevention and treatment of ciliary-choroidal detachment after glaucoma surgery].
The authors recommend cross-like sclerotomy to prevent and treat a ciliary-choroidal detachment after antiglaucoma surgery. Double cross-like sclerotomy was performed in the upper half of the eye simultaneously with trabeculectomy in 30 patients with open-angle glaucoma to prevent the development of ciliary-choroidal detachment. Thirty patients subjected to similar surgery but without prophylactic sclerotomy have made up the reference group. The results evidence that double cross-like sclerotomy is an effective method for the prevention of ciliary-choroidal detachment: the incidence of this complication has dropped by 8 times (from 26.7 to 3.3%). Gross-like sclerotomy performed to treat utricular ciliary-choroidal detachment resulted in cure in all the 14 cases. The suggested sclerotomy technique is simple and low-traumatic.
