This retrospective study was conducted to evaluate the results of Combined Surgery of Cataract and Glaucoma (triple procedure). The procedure of combined surgery were trabeculectomy and extracapsular extraction (14 eyes) versus trabeculectomy and phacoemulsification (15 eyes). The follow-up of both groups was at least 9 months and up to 16 months (mean: 12 months). The mean decrease of IOP was 12.4 mmHg and 8.9 mm Hg in the first and second group respectively. Instillation of Beta-blockers twelve months after surgery were more frequent in the first group (64.3%) than in the second (26.7%). Finally, the IOP values one year after surgery were equivalent in both groups (less than 19 mmHg in 93% of cases). The mean features to emphasize the delay of recuperation of the best corrected visual acuity: one month for phacotrabeculectomy, and three months for extracapsular with trabeculectomy. The frequency of complications was low in both groups. We observed more hyphemas but less secondary cataracts in the phacotrabeculectomy group. Phacotrabeculectomy could become a reference procedure for combined glaucoma and cataract surgery.

D012189 Retrospective Studies Studies used to test etiologic hypotheses in which inferences about an exposure to putative causal factors are derived from data relating to characteristics of persons under study or to events or experiences in their past. The essential feature is that some of the persons under study have the disease or outcome of interest and their characteristics are compared with those of unaffected persons.
