description AIM: To report the outcomes of penetrating canaloplasty for corticosteroid-induced glaucoma in a case series. METHODS: Penetrating canaloplasty is a bleb-independent filtering surgery unifying canaloplasty and trabeculectomy. In this study, the surgery was performed to restore the natural outflow through surgically expanded Schlemm's canal and generated trabeculum ostium. A total of 10 eyes of 8 patients were treated with penetrating canaloplasty for corticosteroid-induced glaucoma. Intraocular pressure (IOP) and the number of glaucoma medications at postoperative 3, 6, 12, 18, 24, 36, and 48mo were documented as primary endpoint. Complications after the surgery were recorded as secondary endpoint. RESULTS: Penetrating canaloplasty was accomplished successfully for all 10 eyes, with a mean follow-up of 20.4±13.0mo (range 6-48mo). The mean preoperative IOP and number of anti-glaucoma medications were 45.1±6.5 mm Hg and 3.3±0.5 respectively. The mean post-operative IOP at 3, 6, 12, 18, 24, 36, and 48mo were 15.8±6.0, 14.7±3.3, 15.3±2.0, 15.6±2.6, 17.5±1.8, 16.5±4.9, and 14.0 mm Hg. The number of anti-glaucoma medications at these time points were all 0. This surgery failed to control the IOP in 1 eye at 1mo after surgery. Hyphaema occurred in 3 eyes on the first day after surgery. Postoperative transient IOP increasing was encountered with in two eyes from 1wk to 1mo after surgery. Choroidal detachment developed in one eye but responded well to conservative treatment. CONCLUSION: Penetrating canaloplasty is effective for corticosteroid-induced glaucoma without serious complications, making it a viable or preferred alternative option.
