摘要

AIM: To compare the safety and effectiveness of phacotrabeculectomy versus sequential surgery in chronic angle-closure glaucoma(CACG) with coexisting cataract.·METHODS: One hundred and sixty-two CACG patients(162 eyes) were retrospectively analyzed. Of them, 87patients(87 eyes) in group A had underwent phacotrabeculectomy with intraocular lens(IOL)implantation, and 75 patients(75 eyes) in group B had underwent sequential surgery with IOL implanted. Best-corrected visual acuity(BCVA), intraocular pressure(IOP), complications and anterior chamber angle(ACA)were measured.· RESULTS: Demographic characteristics of the two groups were similar. A mean follow-up period was 15±6mo(range 13 to 24mo), a mean IOP of 12.14 ±5.32 mm Hg in group A and 11.38 ±4.06 mm Hg in group B(P =0.84) at the last follow up. The Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that the cumulative probability of success in both groups was similar(P =0.61). Anterior uveitis and hypotony were the most common complications in group A, whereas group B experienced shallow anterior chamber with trabeculectomy. With the exception of anterior uveitis, no complications occurred to 11 trabeculectomized eyes. All postoperative measurements of anterior chamber showed statistically significant differences in each group according to the preoperative data(P <0.05). However,fewer changes occurred in group B than in group A.· CONCLUSION: Phacotrabeculectomy and sequential surgery exhibit similar IOP reduction, visual recovery,and complications when treating CACG patients with cataract. However, for a wider ACA, phacotrabeculectomy has demonstrated higher effectiveness than sequential surgery.
