Conjunctival bleb tearing by XEN gel stent after conjunctival compression sutures.

PURPOSE: As minimally invasive glaucoma surgery devices emerge, newer complications are reported. XEN gel stent is safer than classic glaucoma surgery but may also lead to severe adverse effects as hypotony. Compression conjunctival sutures are a useful treatment for overfiltration hypotony after XE...

XEN gel stent is safer than classic glaucoma surgery but may also lead to severe adverse effects as hypotony. Compression conjunctival sutures are a useful treatment for overfiltration hypotony after XEN gel stent implantation, but might force bleb tearing by the implant as it gets tightly close to the sutured conjunctiva. This complication has not been previously reported. METHODS: We report a patient with overfiltration hypotony after XEN gel implantation. Conjunctival compression sutures and implant relocation ab interno were performed obtaining a good outcome. As conjunctiva got tightly close to the stent, the device eroded the bleb so leakage and implant extrusion were found. RESULTS: Bleb reconstruction by conjunctival autograft was performed in order to avoid hypotony due to continuous conjunctival leakage. CONCLUSION: Conjunctival compression sutures may be used for overfiltration control after XEN gel implantation but we must be aware of potential conjunctival damage due to implant erosion even if it is correctly positioned. Close follow-up and early suture release may be convenient in these patients.SAGE PUBLICATIONS LTD2022info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionhttps://fisabio.portalinvestigacion.com/publicaciones/9340EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF OPHTHALMOLOGYISSN: 11206721ISSNe: 17246016reponame:r-FISABIO.
