“…2,4,8,[24][25][26] Over the last decade, 3601 trabeculotomy 55,56 and CTT have emerged as alternatives to the conventional modes of surgery. [27][28][29] Of the two, many surgeons have preferred CTT as an initial procedure for several ethnic population groups such as Middle East, 30,31 Jerusalem, 28 and India. [32][33][34][35][36] The most compelling argument in favour of primary CTT in our Indian patient population was the higher incidence of successful IOP control with a single operative procedure, as has already been reported by us.…”

“…[27][28][29] Over the last decade, the good success rate of CTT reported by Elder 28 has been substantiated by other institutions and paediatric ophthalmologists. [30][31][32][33][34][35][36] The functional outcome of patients with PDG is poor; no more than 40-50% of these children achieve a vision of 20/50 or better. 24,25 However, only a few reports exist on the long-term surgical outcome in developmental glaucoma.…”

“…Nos últimos anos, tem sido descrita a aplicação da MMC na cirurgia de glaucoma congênito primário e glaucoma associado a anomalias de desenvolvimento, refratários, com bons resultados (21)(22)(23)(24)(25) . Nesses estudos, foram utilizadas concentrações de MMC entre 0,2 a 0,4 mg/ml e tempo de exposição entre seis meses, foi de 11,2±4,9 mmHg (mediana: 10); com um ano, 11,3±7,3 mmHg (mediana: 10) e, com dois anos, 10,4±4,0 mmHg (mediana: 10,5).…”

“…Esse valor contrasta com os dos outros estudos com MMC no glaucoma congênito, em que níveis de Po inicial superiores a 30 mmHg são uma constante (21)(22)(23)(24)(25) . Esses estudos consideram sucesso cirúrgico a redução da Po a valores iguais ou inferiores a 21 mmHg, com ou sem medicação hipotensora.…”
