Abstract:
Uveitis-Glaucoma-Hyphema (UGH) syndrome is characterized by episodes of anterior chamber inflammation, elevated intraocular pressure and hyphema. It is caused by a mechanical chafing of the iris or ciliary body typically by a malpositioned intraocular lens. We present a rare case of UGH syndrome related to the insertion of a Hydrus Microstent. Because of the increased number of microinvasive glaucoma surgeries being performed and a reduction of UGH syndrome patients related to the insertion of intraocular lenses, it is an important diagnosis to consider in patients with recurrent postoperative inflammation.
摘要:
葡萄膜炎-青光眼-前房积血(UGH)综合征的特征是前房炎症发作,高眼压和前房积血。它是由虹膜或睫状体的机械磨损引起的,通常是由人工晶状体错位引起的。我们介绍了与插入Hydrus微支架有关的UGH综合征的罕见病例。由于正在进行的微创青光眼手术数量增加,并且与插入人工晶状体有关的UGH综合征患者减少,这是术后复发性炎症患者需要考虑的重要诊断。
