Clinical Trial Summary

This is a retrospective, nonrandomized comparative trial with historical control to investigate the safety and efficacy of a novel progressive grasping peripheral iridectomy (PGPI) surgical method in preventing aphakic angle-closure glaucoma (AACG) following congenital cataract surgery.


Description:

Aphakic angle-closure glaucoma (AACG) following congenital cataract surgery is a common and serious complication which can be prevented by prophylactic peripheral iridectomy (PPI). However, it is difficult to perform routine PPI via scleral tunnel incision especially when the pupil is dilated. Here, the investigators designed a novel progressive grasping peripheral iridectomy (PGPI) surgical method which can ensure the accurate iridectomy position and minimize the complication. The aim of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of the PGPI in preventing AACG following congenital cataract surgery.

This is a retrospective, nonrandomized comparative trial with historical control. The congenital cataract patients performed with cataract extraction combined with PPI (PPI group) and the patients performed with cataract extraction alone and leaving the iris intact (historical control group) were enrolled and a retrospective medical chart review was conducted. The IOP, anterior chamber depth, corneal clarity, patency of peripheral iridectomy opening, and the rate of AACG, iris posterior synechia (IPS) and visual axis opacity (VAO) were compared between two groups.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary The rate of aphakic angle-closure glaucoma Pupillary block with subsequent closure of the filtration angle is the cause of early aphakic angle-closure glaucoma (AACG), which usually happens in the early postoperative period, generally within the first 6 months. AACG presents with elevated IOP (repeatedly >25 mmHg), corneal edema, iris bombe, shallow anterior chamber, peripheral anterior synechia and angle closure. 18-49 months
Secondary The rate of iris posterior synechia Postoperative uveal inflammation can result in iris posterior synechia (IPS), referring to the synechia between iris and capsule around pupil. IPS is graded according to the range of the synechia. Grade 0: no synechia; Grade I: <1 quadrant; Grade II: =2 quadrants and >1 quadrant ; Grade III: =3 quadrants and >2 quadrants; Grade IV: >3 quadrants. 18-49 months
Secondary The rate of visual axis opacity visual axis opacification (VAO) refers to developing reopacification of the visual axis in the form of lens proliferation into the visual axis or pupillary membrane. 18-49 months
