RESUMO

PURPOSE: This study investigated the use of fibrin glue and compared its effect with traditional sutures for conjunctival closure in strabismus surgery. METHODS: The study included 12 patients undergoing horizontal strabismus surgery, of whom 5 underwent bilateral medial rectus muscle recessions and 7 underwent bilateral lateral rectus muscle recessions. For each patient, fibrin glue was used to close the conjunctiva of one eye and 6-0 plain sutures were used to close the other. RESULTS: All eyes maintained adequate closure of the conjunctiva postoperatively and there were no intraoperative or postoperative complications for an eye. However, the average surgical time needed to apply fibrin glue was considerable less than that required for closure with sutures. Furthermore, eyes closed with fibrin glue were associated with significantly less postoperative inflammation and patient discomfort than those closed with sutures. All patients and parents reported significantly less discomfort from the eyes treated with fibrin glue. CONCLUSION: These results are promising and demonstrated a safe and effective alternative to traditional suture closure in strabismus surgery. When compared to traditional suture closure, conjunctival closure with glue includes the following advantages: less postoperative patient discomfort, diminished postoperative inflammation, and potentially reduced surgical time with corresponding reduced time under general anesthesia.

RESUMO

A 4-year-old girl had extensive subconjunctival hemorrhage in the right eye. She had recurrent minor nosebleeds starting at 6 months. Visual acuity was 20/20. Anterior segment examination showed diffuse, blood-filled, multilobulated cystic channels in the conjunctiva. Bleeding resolved, leaving transparent cystic channels. Conjunctival lymphangioma can manifest as temporary subconjunctival lymphangioma.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To compare the effectiveness of four biostains in vitreous staining as a means to facilitate clean anterior vitrectomy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Four biostains (fluorescein, indocyanine green, trypan blue, and triamcinolone acetonide) were used to stain the transparent vitreous of human cadaver and monkey cadaver eyes. Results were compared and recorded by digital photography and videography. RESULTS: Of the four biostains, triamcinolone acetonide best highlighted the vitreous. Although fluorescein, indocyanine green, and trypan blue also produced acceptable vitreous staining, the surrounding ocular structures were slightly stained as well. CONCLUSION: All four biostains enhanced visualization of the vitreous. However, triamcinolone acetonide best highlighted the vitreous.
