Liquefied after cataract and its surgical treatment

Abstract: Aims:To describe liquefied after cataract (LAC) and its surgical management following an uneventful phacoemulsification with posterior chamber in-the-bag intraocular lens (IOL) implantation and continuous curvilinear capsulorrhexis (CCC).Design:Interventional case series.Materials and Methods:Eleven patients with LAC, following uneventful phacoemulsification with CCC and in-the-bag IOL implantation were enrolled. After the basic slit lamp examination, each case was investigated with Scheimpflug photography and… Show more

“…Various modalities have been described to manage late-onset LAC, such as Nd: YAG laser capsulotomy and capsular bag lavage. [ 4 5 ] However, laser capsulotomy carries a potential risk of dissemination of the liquefied fluid into the vitreous cavity or anterior chamber and subsequent inflammation. The fluid containing collagen and extracellular matrix may clog the trabecular meshwork and elevate IOP.…”

“…Der flüssige Nachstar, im Englischen als "liquefied after-cataract" oder "milky white cataract" bezeichnet, ist eine seltene Spätkomplikation nach Kataraktoperation mit Hinterkapsellinsenimplantation und wurde erstmalig 1998 durch Miyake Klinisch kommt es typischerweise zu einer langsam voranschreitenden Sehverschlechterung Jahre nach erfolgter Kataraktoperation [1,4]. In der Literatur sind allerdings auch vereinzelte Fälle eines akuten Auftretens berichtet [5].…”

“…Zur Therapie des flüssigen Nachstars kommen sowohl die chirurgische Absaugung als auch die primäre YAG-Kapsulotomie infrage [1,4]. Erstere Option birgt die typischen Risiken einer Kataraktoperation, bietet dafür aber den Vorteil einer kontrollierten Absaugung des Nachstars und ermöglicht ggf.…”
