PG - 12755 LID - 10.1038/s41598-023-40029-4 [doi] LID - 12755 AB - This study reports the long-term results of trabeculectomy (LEC) for secondary glaucoma in hereditary transthyretin (ATTRv) amyloidosis patients and its correlation with prior vitrectomy. A retrospective case series was conducted involving 31 consecutive eyes of 20 ATTRv amyloidosis patients who underwent LEC between 2007 and 2020. The mean follow-up period was 73.2 +/- 37.0 months (range: 20-181 months). Postoperative intraocular pressures (IOPs) were evaluated based on the following criteria: (a) IOP between 6 and 21 mmHg without additional glaucoma surgeries, except for laser suture lysis, (b) IOP between 6 and 15 mmHg without additional glaucoma surgeries, except for laser suture lysis, and (c) IOP between 6 and 21 mmHg without additional glaucoma surgeries, except for needling and laser suture lysis. Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed survival rates after LEC of 0.52 at 36 months, 0.42 at 60 months, and 0.25 at 84 months under criterion (a); 0.49 at 36 months, 0.27 at 60 months, and 0.11 at 84 months under criterion (b); and 0.76 at 36 months, 0.71 at 60 months, and 0.65 at 84 months under criterion (c). Eyes with a history of small gauge transconjunctival vitrectomy (SGTV) exhibited a tendency towards lower survival rates, although no statistically significant difference was observed (log-rank test; p = 0.193 under criterion (a) and p = 0.0553 under criterion (b)). Our findings suggest that LEC and additional needling procedures can provide some control over IOP; however, the overall postoperative outcomes of LEC for ATTRv amyloidosis remain unsatisfactory, even in the era of SGTV with reduced conjunctival scarring.
