Effect of postoperative corticosteroids on surgical outcome and aqueous autotaxin following combined cataract and microhook ab interno trabeculotomy.

ABSTRACT: To evaluate the effect of postoperative corticosteroids on surgical outcome and autotaxin (ATX) levels after microhook ab interno trabeculotomy combined with cataract surgery (?LOT-CS), prospective, consecutive non-randomized case series comparing outcomes of 30 eyes with primary open angle glaucoma was performed. The aqueous ATX, intraocular pressure (IOP) and glaucoma medications were monitored for 3 months postoperatively. An in-vivo mouse ?LOT model was generated. In vitro, ATX and fibrotic changes induced by dexamethasone (Dex) treatment following scratch (S) in cultured human trabecular meshwork (hTM) cells were assessed by immunofluorescence, immunoenzymatic assay, and RT-qPCR. Postoperative ATX at 1 week and the number of antiglaucoma medications at 3 months were significantly lower in non-steroid group, and steroid use was the only variable significantly associated with postoperative medications at 3 months in multiregression analyses. In vitro, ATX activity was significantly upregulated in the Dex?+?S group, and ?SMA was significantly upregulated in the Dex and Dex?+?S groups. Fibronectin and COL1A1 were significantly upregulated in the S group. ?LOT-CS decreased IOP and medications in the overall cohort, and non-use of postoperative steroids resulted in a smaller number of postoperative medications. Limiting postoperative steroids in ?LOT may minimize IOP elevation and postoperative fibrosis.

Project description:To assess the roles of preoperative intraocular pressure (IOP) level on the IOP reducing efficacy of microhook ab interno trabeculotomy (µLOT), 126 consecutive open-angle glaucomatous eyes (90 primary open angle glaucoma, 36 exfoliation glaucoma) of 126 Japanese subjects (60 men, 66 women; mean age ± standard deviation, 70.5 ± 11.4 years) who underwent µLOT alone (25 eyes, 20%) or combined µLOT and cataract surgery (101 eyes, 80%) were retrospectively included, and subdivided into four groups based on the quartile of preoperative IOP: Q1, ≤15 mmHg; Q2, 15-18 mmHg, Q3, 18-21 mmHg, and Q4, >21 mmHg. Preoperative and 12 months postoperative IOPs and numbers of antiglaucoma medications were compared among IOP groups. Factors associated with postoperative IOP were assessed using multivariate analysis, and the success of IOP control was assessed with various definitions. Postoperatively, IOP was significantly higher in Q3 (p < 0.0146) and Q4 (p = 0.0320) groups than Q1 group, while the number of medications was not significantly different among four IOP groups (p = 0.1966). Older age was associated with lower postoperative IOP, and higher preoperative IOP was associated with higher postoperative IOP, while sex, glaucoma type, surgical procedure, lens status, extent of trabeculotomy incision, and preoperative number of medications were not associated with postoperative IOP. The success rates for IOP ≤ 18 and ≤15 mmHg were higher in lower preoperative IOP groups (i.e., Q1 and Q2) than higher preoperative IOP groups (Q3 and Q4), while the success rate for ≥20% IOP reduction was higher in higher preoperative IOP groups than in lower preoperative IOP groups; the success rate for ≥0% IOP reduction was equivalent among groups. By reviewing the previous studies in ab interno trabeculotomy/goniotomy procedures, positive correlation between preoperative and postoperative IOPs was preserved throughout the studies and surgical procedures. After the µLOT, larger %IOP reduction was achieved in higher preoperative IOP groups than in lower preoperative IOP groups, while postoperative IOP was still lower than in lower preoperative IOP groups.

Project description:BackgroundTo examine the risk factors for an early postoperative intraocular pressure (IOP) increase after ab interno trabeculotomy using a Kahook Dual Blade (KDB trabeculotomy).MethodsA retrospective study was performed in 76 exfoliation glaucoma (EXG) eyes and 56 primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) eyes that underwent KDB trabeculotomy, with or without cataract surgery at Kumamoto University Hospital. Postoperative high IOP was classified as IOP≥20 mmHg (within three months after surgery, whether persistent or temporary), transient IOP≥20 mmHg (IOP≥20 mmHg after surgery, then dropped below 20 mmHg), and the presence of IOP spikes (≥ 10 mmHg from baseline). Risk factors were examined using logistic regression analysis.ResultsThe preoperative mean IOP (SD) was 24.98 (7.23) mmHg in patients with EXG and 21.28 (6.58) mmHg in patients with POAG. IOP was reduced by 32.1% in patients with EXG and by 17.7% in patients with POAG at 6 months after surgery. Postoperative IOP≥20 mmHg was observed in 56.6% of EXG patients and in 51.8% of POAG patients. IOP spikes occurred in 15.8% of EXG patients and in 14.3% of POAG patients. Logistic regression analysis showed that factors with significant odds ratios (ORs) were age (OR = 0.866, 95% CI = 0.793-0.945), preoperative medication use (OR = 2.02, 95% CI = 1.17-3.49), trabeculotomy in combination with cataract surgery (OR = 0.0674, 95% CI = 0.015-0.303), and IOP at day 1 (OR = 1.41, 95% CI = 1.18-1.68) for postoperative IOP≥20 mmHg, the IOP at day 1 (OR = 1.1, 95% CI = 1.03-1.17) for transient IOP≥20 mmHg, and age (OR = 0.948, 95% CI = 0.901-0.997) and preoperative IOP (OR = 0.83, 95% CI = 0.736-0.936) for IOP spikes.ConclusionAlthough KDB trabeculotomy is an effective treatment for patients with EXG and POAG, patients who take multiple preoperative medications and have a high IOP on day 1 require careful follow-up to prevent postoperative IOP elevation.
