ABSTRACT
AIMS:
To predict high-risk factors for zonular complications during cataract surgery due to pre-existing severe zonular dehiscence in eyes with pseudoexfoliation (PXF) syndrome.METHODS:
315 eyes of 315 consecutive patients with PXF scheduled for phacoemulsification surgery underwent preoperative examination of various ocular parameters using an anterior segment-optical coherence tomography and other devices. When zonular complications occurred during surgery due to zonular dehiscence, scleral fixation of the intraocular lens (IOL) or implantation of a capsular tension ring (CTR) was performed. High-risk factors for these intraoperative zonular complications were examined using classification-tree and logistic regression analyses.RESULTS:
Of the 315 eyes, 31 (9.84%) underwent scleral IOL fixation or CTR implantation. High-risk factors identified by classification-tree analysis were a small pupillary diameter after mydriasis <6.30 mm, a shallow anterior chamber depth <2.074 mm and lens decentration >0.260 mm. Based on exact logistic regression analysis, the OR was 4.81-fold higher for eyes with poor mydriasis than for eyes without poor mydriasis (p=0.006, 95% CI 1.49 to 18.23), 23.99-fold higher for eyes with poor mydriasis and a shallow anterior chamber (p<0.001, 5.92 to 109.02) and 287.39-fold higher for eyes with poor mydriasis, a shallow chamber and great lens decentration (p<0.001, 50.46 to infinity).CONCLUSION:
In eyes with PXF, high-risk factors for zonular complications during cataract surgery due to pre-existing severe zonular dehiscence were poor mydriasis, shallow anterior chamber and large lens decentration, suggesting the importance of evaluating these conditions preoperatively.Palavras-chave
