| Abstract | Background This study aimed to investigate the safety and efficacy of the Yamane technique (flanged intrascleral haptic fixation with double-needle technique /FIHFT) for three-piece intraocular lens (IOL) implantation in Egyptian patients diagnosed with Marfan syndrome (MFS) presented with subluxated lenses (ectopia lentis, EL). Methods This was a retrospective evaluation of thirty-three patients who were diagnosed with MFS and had subluxated lenses in a total of forty eyes. Seven of these patients had bilateral subluxation. Lensectomy or phacoemulsification was performed with limited anterior vitrectomy, followed by IOL implantation using the FIHFT method. Data was collected from medical records, including preoperative and postoperative corrected distant visual acuity (CDVA) using logarithm of the minimal angle of resolution (log MAR), preoperative and postoperative refractions, intraoperative and postoperative complications, and follow-up periods. Results The mean age of patients in the study was 30.79 years, with a mean follow-up of 23.9 months. Post-surgery, the refractive sphere decreased significantly from -9.1 ± 1.4 diopter (D) to -1.4 ± 0.7 D, and cylinder measurements dropped from -4.5 ± 0.8 D to -1.4 ± 0.6 D. The spherical equivalent (SEQ) also declined from -11.4 ± 1.5 D to -2.1 ± 0.8 D. The CDVA improved from 0.80 ± 0.32 to 0.18 ± 0.10 log MAR (P < 0.001). No intraoperative complications were identified. Postoperative complications included IOL decentration (12.5%), vitreous hemorrhage (7.5%), IOL slippage (5%), IOL tilt (5%), and retinal detachment (RD) (5%). Further surgical procedures were necessary for only four cases (10%), all of which had positive outcomes. IOL tilting and slippage occurring at average ages of 18 and 19 years, respectively. No other complications, such as hypotony, elevated intraocular pressure (IOP), corneal edema, iritis, IOL dislocation, cystoid macular edema (CME) or endophthalmitis, were reported. Conclusions The Yamane technique has proven effective and safe for treating subluxated lenses in Egyptian patients with Marfan Syndrome, resulting in improved visual acuity with minimal complications, mostly minor and manageable. Comprehensive fundus examinations before and after surgery are essential for promptly identifying retinal breaks and reducing the risk of retinal detachment. IOL tilting and slippage are more common in younger patients. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
