Abstract

To compare the efficacy and safety of viscocanalostomy plus near-360-degree suture trabeculotomy (VST) with viscocanalostomy plus rigid probe trabeculotomy (VT) in treating primary congenital glaucoma (PCG) over a one-year follow-up. This consecutive retrospective study included patients with PCG confirmed within 3 years of age from March 2017 to October 2019. Efficacy was evaluated by comparing the postoperative intraocular pressure (IOP) curve and the success rate at one year after surgery. Safety was assessed by comparing the postoperative complications. The number of anti-glaucoma agents, horizontal corneal diameter (HCD) and cup-to-disc ratio (C/D) of the two surgical methods were also compared. Data of 90 eyes from 61 patients were analysed. The baseline parameters of the two groups were similar. The IOP at 12 months after surgery in the VST group was 12.7 ± 4.8 mmHg, while that in the VT group was 15.8 ± 6.5 mmHg. The IOP at 6, 9 and 12 months postoperatively in the VST group was significantly lower than in the VT group (p < 0.05). Viscocanalostomy plus near-360-degree suture trabeculotomy (VST) remained a significant favourable factor for complete one-year success (93.6% versus 74.4%, p = 0.005) but not qualified one-ye...Continue Reading

Arrhythmia

Arrhythmias are abnormalities in heart rhythms, which can be either too fast or too slow. They can result from abnormalities of the initiation of an impulse or impulse conduction or a combination of both. Here is the latest research on arrhythmias.
