Outcomes and lessons learned from two decades’ experience with glaucoma drainage device implantation for refractory Sturge Weber–associated childhood glaucoma
2021, Journal of AAPOSCitation Excerpt :We found that GDD surgery for refractory glaucoma in patients with SWS was modestly successful, providing IOP reduction but with a high rate of postoperative complications. Success in the present series was similar to published studies in SWS-associated glaucoma,15,20 but slightly lower than the success of GDD for refractory primary congenital glaucoma.22 In a series of 24 eyes without prior surgery that underwent Ahmed valve placement, Kaushik and colleagues15 reported 75% success at 2 years.
