  • Title: Endocapsular hematoma: report of a case following glaucoma surgery in a pseudophakic eye.
    Author: Mandal AK, Gothwal VK.
    Journal: Ophthalmic Surg Lasers; 1999 May; 30(5):389-93. PubMed ID: 10334027.
    Abstract:
    The authors describe a case of an endocapsular hematoma that occurred in a 69-year-old pseudophakic diabetic male following mitomycin C (MMC) augmented trabeculectomy for neovascular glaucoma (NVG). The clinical course of the patient is described, and the unique features of this case are presented and discussed. The endocapsular hematoma absorbed in 6 weeks with conservative management. The patient regained the preoperative visual acuity of 20/30, and his intraocular pressure was controlled without any glaucoma medication. The iris neovascularization regressed. This case is the first report of an endocapsular hematoma following glaucoma filtering surgery in a pseudophakic eye with neovascular glaucoma.
