“…Trabeculectomy is the most widely used glaucoma surgery method for medically uncontrolled glaucoma, 1 though pre-existing uveitis is generally considered to be one of the risk factors for failure of glaucoma filtrating surgery. [2][3][4][5] Recently, the results of trabeculectomy for patients with glaucoma who have a high risk for failure of filtrating surgery have been considerably improved by concomitant usage of mitomycin C (MMC), [6][7][8] and several reports have also proposed that MMC use might improve the success rate of a trabeculectomy for UG, ranging from 50 to 90% with various criteria of success. 5,[9][10][11][12] However, most of the published studies of a trabeculectomy with MMC (MMC trabeculectomy) for UG have included only a clinically small number of patients or have not reported the results of long-term follow-up.…”
