Tóm tắt

To report the management of a patient with traumatic mydriasis, aphakia and corneal decompensation with a triple procedure: simultaneous pupilloplasty and retropupillary iris-claw intraocular lens (IOL) implantation combined with Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK). An 88-year-old woman was referred to our Institute for consultation on her left eye. The patient had undergone surgical removal of the IOL, without re-implantation, in her left eye 10 months prior to presentation due to traumatic IOL dislocation. At the time of examination, corrected distance visual acuity was counting fingers and intraocular pressure was 10 mmHg. Slit-lamp examination revealed iridoplegia, aphakia and corneal edema. The patient underwent simultaneous pupilloplasty and retropupillary iris-claw IOL implantation combined with DSAEK. Six months postoperatively, the corneal graft was attached and clear, the iris was well reconstructed and almost round, and the iris-claw IOL was in place. Simultaneous pupilloplasty and retropupillary iris-claw IOL implantation combined with DSAEK was shown to be a safe surgical technique in a patient with traumatic mydriasis, aphakia and corneal decompensation.
