Abstract

Aim: To evaluate admitted age, operation time, surgical technique, intraocular lens implantation, posterior capsule opacification and visual results in a series of cases with congenital cataract.
Materials and Methods: The patients who underwent congenital cataract surgery between 2016-2017 in our hospital were retrospectively evaluated. 42 (24 right, 18 left) eyes of 16 boys, and 9 girls were included in this study. Patients with less than six months of follow-up time were not included. Demographic features of patients, best corrected visual acuity, anterior segment findings were recorded. Statistical analysis was performed with SPSS program.
Results: The mean age was 6,5±3 years (3 - 12) and the mean follow-up period was 2,7 years (2 - 3.5). Eight unilateral and 17 bilateral congenital cataract surgeries were performed within a year. All patients underwent lens aspiration with co-axial irrigation-aspiration, primary posterior capsulorhexis, anterior vitrectomy and intraocular lens implantation. In the follow-up, amblyopia was detected in 23 patients
Conclusion: Congenital cataract is an important cause of childhood blindness in developing and under-developed countries. Thus, early detection of congenital cataract patients, and surgical timing, surgical technique and regular follow-up are important in terms of the development of visual functions

Abstract

Amaç: Bu çalışmamızda konjenital katarakt nedeniyle hastanemize başvuran hastaların başvuru yaşı, operasyon zamanı, uygulanan cerrahi teknik ve intraoküler lens implantasyonu, posterior kapsül kesafeti ve elde edilen görsel sonuçların değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır.
Gereç ve Yöntem: Hastanemizde, 2016-2017 yılları arasında konjenital katarakt cerrahisi geçirmiş hasta dosyaları retrospektif olarak incelenmiştir. Çalışmamıza 25 (16 erkek, 9 kız) hastanın 42 (24 sağ, 18 sol) gözü dahil edilmiştir. Altı aydan kısa takip süresi olan hastalar çalışmaya dahil edilmemiştir. Vakaların demografik özellikleri, elde edilen en iyi düzeltilmiş görme keskinlikleri ve ön segment bulguları kaydedilmiştir. İstatistiksel analizler SPSS programı ile yapılmıştır.
Bulgular: Yaş ortalaması 6,5±3 yıl (3-12) ve ortalama takip süreleri 2,7 yıl (2-3,5) idi. Bir yıllık süre içinde 17 hastaya bilateral, sekiz hastaya unilateral konjenital katarakt cerrahisi yapılmıştır. Tüm hastalara ko-aksiyel irrigasyon aspirasyon ile lens aspirasyonu, primer posterior kapsüloreksis, anterior vitrektomi ve intraoküler lens implantasyonu uygulanmıştır. Takiplerde 23 hastada ambliyopi tespit edilmiştir.
Sonuç: Kongenital katarakt gelişmekte olan ve az gelişmiş ülkelerde çocukluk çağı körlüklerinin önemli bir nedenidir. Bu nedenle görme gelişimi açısından konjenital katarakt hastalarının tespit edilmesi, cerrahi zamanlama, cerrahi teknik ve hastaların düzenli takiplerinin yapılması önemlidir.
