AIM: To observe the safety and efficacy of stab incision glaucoma surgery(SIGS)in the treatment of adult glaucoma.
METHODS: A series of retrospective case studies were carried out from June 2018 to November 2020, the clinical data of 55 cases with 70 eyes of glaucoma treated with SIGS in our hospital were collected. Following up at 6mo after operation, the intraocular pressure(IOP), bleb and postoperative complications were observed.
RESULTS: Among the included patients, 30 eyes were performed SIGS alonely, 40 eyes were performed SIGS combined with phacoemulsification. Among them, the operation of 33 eyes(47%)was completely successful, the operation of 28 eyes(40%)was partially successful, and the operation of 9 eyes(13%)were failed. The mean preoperative IOP under medication was 31.82±13.16mmHg, and at 1wk, 1, 3 and 6mo after operation, the mean IOP(14.97±5.25, 17.94±5.24, 18.43±4.74, 17.37±3.36)mmHg were all significantly lower than before operation, and the number of IOP-lowering drugs used at 6mo after operation \〖0(0, 1)\〗 was significantly lower than before operation \〖3(2, 3)\〗(P<0.001). At 6mo after operation, the filtering blebs' shape of the patients: 30 eyes(43%)of type I(functional bleb), 31 eyes(44%)of type Ⅱ(functional bleb), 7 eyes(10%)of type Ⅲ(flat bleb)and 2 eyes(3%)of type IV(encapsulated vesicular bleb)were included. During the follow-up period, 2 eyes had hyphema in anterior chamber, 4 eyes had inflammatory reaction in anterior chamber, 3 eyes had low IOP, shallow anterior chamber and excessive filtration, 1 eye had malignant glaucoma, 1 eye had endophthalmitis, 1 eye had choroidal detachment, 1 eye had choroidal detachment, and 9 eyes had scarring of filtering blebs.
CONCLUSION: SIGS is effective in the treatment of primary open angle glaucoma, primary angle-closure glaucoma and some secondary glaucoma without serious complications.
