Abstract

Objective To observe the C1inical effect of big sclera flap on the trabeculectomy.Methods 11 cases(20 eyes)of glaucoma accepted the trabeculectomy with big sclera flap(4×6 mm),and the sclera flap was sutured by three needles(span 4 mm).Then the anterior chamber was shaped.Results The postoperative follow-up period was six months.There was significant statistical difference between preoperative and postoperative IOPs(8.53±2.55 mmHg VS 24.9±15.36 mmHg)(t=4.889,P=0.0001).Filtering bleb:1 5 eyes of Ⅰ type in 7 days,13 eyes of Ⅰ type in six months.All Cases had normal anterior chamber.Conclusions The trabeculectomy with big sclera flap can effectively accommodate IOP,reduce the occurrent of postoperative shallow anterior chamber.
