| Abstract | PURPOSE: To report a case of persistent shallow anterior chamber after silicone tube intubation, recovered by fibrin glue in glaucoma drainage device implantation (GDI). CASE SUMMARY: A 42-year-old female, diagnosed with neovascular glaucoma at a local clinic visited our clinic for uncontrolled intraocular pressure (IOP) in her right eye. We performed GDI on her right eye. Scleral flap and paracentesis of the anterior chamber were performed. Then, a silicone tube was inserted into the anterior chamber. Despite repetitive infusion of balanced salt solution (BSS), the anterior chamber became persistently shallow due to peritubular leakage. After dropping the fibrin glue in the peritubular space and beneath the scleral flap, attachment occurred. No additional leakage was observed near the scleral flap and after infusion of BSS, a deep anterior chamber was maintained. One day after surgery, IOP in the right eye was 3 mm Hg, deep anterior chamber was maintained, and no leakage of aqueous humor into the conjunctiva occurred. Two months after surgery, IOP was 16 mm Hg and a deep anterior chamber was maintained. CONCLUSIONS: In cases of persistent shallow anterior chamber after silicone tube intubation in intraoperative GDI, the best methods to maintain the anterior chamber is by suture ligation of the peritubular loosened site or infusion of viscoelastic agent to anterior chamber. In the present case, applying the fibrin glue beneath the scleral flap apparently obstructed the peritubular infiltration. |

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.
