Description
Summary:Purpose. To evaluate the graft survival in the dynamics of the postoperative period of FS-DSEK in patients with concomitant glaucoma. Material and methods. In total 52 eyes were operated, 32 of them with glaucoma compensated by medication (1st group), 8 with glaucoma operated by implantation of the Ahmed valve model FP8 (2nd group) and 12 with glaucoma operated by microinvasive non-penetrating deep sclerectomy with implantation of collagen antiglaucoma drainage (3rd group). All patients have a follow-up of 12 months. Results. By 1 year, the «cornea + graft» complex retained its transparency in group 1 in 84.4% of eyes (27 out of 32 eyes), in group 2 in 87.5% of cases (7 out of 8 eyes), in group 3 in 75% of cases (9 out of 12 eyes). The highest percentage of endothelial cell loss at 12 months was observed in 2nd group (Ahmed valve) – 45,4±19,5%. In other groups, endothelial cell loss was 41,8±9,1% (group 3) and 39,6±15,2% (1st group). Conclusion. Clinical results show a lower percentage of graft survival after FS-DSEK in the operated glaucoma groups. Accumulation of clinical material and further study of patterns are required.
