Abstract

Purpose: To compare the short and long-term efficacy and complications of RELEASABLE SUTURE vs conventional interrupted suture for scleral flap in TRABECULECTOMY.Methods: in a prospective randomized clinical trial, 42 eyes of 42 consecutive patients requiring TRABECULECTOMY for uncontrolled primary glaucoma underwent conventional TRABECULECTOMY (group A) and TRABECULECTOMY with RELEASABLE SUTUREs (group B); 21 eyes of 21 patients for each group. Short-term hypotony related complications and long-term intraocular pressure were measured and compared.Results: The mean follow up was 11.7±6.5 months in group A and 9.4±6.4 months in group B. The mean ± SD final intraocular pressure at the end of follow up period was 13.95±4 mmHg in group A and 14.57± 3 mmHg in group B (P=0.58). Mean reduction in intraocular pressure at the end of follow up was 54.5% in group A and 56% in group B. Final intraocular pressure was controlled (lOP≤20mmHg) without medications in 15 patients in group A giving a success rate of 71-4% and in 14 patients in group B giving a success rate of 66.7%. Flat anterior chamber (grade III) was observed in 2 eyes in group A but in no eyes with RELEASABLE SUTURE. At the end of follow up, the two groups were similar regarding intraocular pressure and need for ocular hypotensive medication.Conclusion: Releasable scleral flap sutures reduce the incidence of hypotony and related complication without any effects on long-term control of intraocular pressure and is an effective way with no extra cost or instrument.
