Resumen

GARCIA GONZALEZ, Francisco; NOVOA SANCHEZ, Ester  y  SAN MARTIN GEISSE, Raúl. Evaluation of Ahmed valve in the glaucoma of poor surgical prognosis. Rev Cubana Oftalmol [online]. 2001, vol.14, n.2, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1561-3070.

8 patients with glaucoma of poor surgical prognosis were implanted an Ahmed valve by using the conventional surgical technique. It was possible to control the intraocular pressure (IOP). The complications were: hypotony (75 %), choroidal detachment (37.5 %), hyphaemia (25.0 %), contact with the iridian tube (25.0 %), hypothalamia (12.5 %) and congestion in the area of the implantation (12.5 %). There were no intraoperative complications. Medium term results were satisfactory.
