title: [Retrospective analysis of causes of enucleations after anti-glaucomatous surgery].
abstract: Proximate causes of intraocular pressure (IOP) decompensation accompanied with persistent pain syndrome were determined based on results of morphological examination of 59 eyes enucleated due to terminal previously operated glaucoma and medical history analysis. Excessive scarring, formation of solid hyalinized membrane in the site of filter pad, closure of anterior chamber angle with synechia as an outcome of chronic iridocyclitis and inappropriate surgical approach lead to increase in the resistance of the aqueous humor outflow and result in glaucoma decompensation causing complications that necessitate enucleation. The most common complications are the following: bacterial corneal ulcer with potential perforation and endophthalmitis, hemorrhagic choroidal detachment, vitreous hemorrhage, persistent pain syndrome and phthisis bulbi.
