| Popis: | Of 170 children who underwent 248 glaucoma procedures at a single center between 2005 and 2012, 13 eyes of 12 children (5.24%) developed decompression retinopathy, which resolved spontaneously, leaving no visible structural damage to the fundus structures. The mean age of children with hemorrhages was 39.2 ± 63.5 months; of those without, 8.0 ± 9.7 months. The fundus hemorrhages were peripapillary, subfoveal, dot-and-blot, and diffuse. Combined angle and filtering surgery with antimetabolite was the most common procedure performed in all eyes. There were no statistically significant differences between eyes with and without hemorrhages with respect to demographics or preoperative and operative characteristics. No definite ocular risk factor was identified for the occurrence of decompression retinopathy. |
