In this detailed surgical video, I demonstrate the step-by-step process of performing cataract extraction in a challenging case involving a white cataract with total posterior synechiae and a long Ahmed valve tube in the anterior chamber. This complex scenario required meticulous planning and advanced techniques to ensure a successful outcome.
Key Highlights of the Procedure:
Use of the Malyugin Ring: To manage the small pupil and facilitate safe phacoemulsification, I employed the Malyugin Ring, which provided excellent pupil expansion and improved visualization.
Ahmed Valve Tube Management: The long Ahmed valve tube in the anterior chamber posed a unique challenge. I carefully trimmed and repositioned the tube to avoid interference with the cataract surgery and ensure proper functioning postoperatively.
Capsulorhexis and Phacoemulsification: Despite the dense white cataract and synechiae, I achieved a continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis (CCC) and performed efficient phacoemulsification using a tailored approach.
IOL Implantation: A foldable intraocular lens (IOL) was successfully implanted in the bag, ensuring optimal visual outcomes for the patient.
This video is ideal for ophthalmologists, cataract surgeons, and trainees looking to enhance their skills in managing complex cataract cases with coexisting ocular pathologies.
