PURPOSE: To assess the efficacy and safety of pars plana vitrectomy with irido-zonulo-hyaloidotomy (IZH) for fluid misdirection syndrome (FMS) in pseudophakic eyes. METHODS: This was a retrospective case series study of patients treated with pars plana vitrectomy with IZH for FMS between February 2017 and March 2020. Complete success was defined as central anterior chamber (AC) deepening with an intraocular pressure (IOP) of 21mmHg or less (on 2 consecutive visits at least 1 week apart) without topical or systemic glaucoma medications. Qualified success was defined as central AC deepening with an IOP of 21mmHg or less (on 2 consecutive visits at least 1 week apart) with topical or systemic glaucoma medications. RESULTS: Twelve eyes of 12 patients with a diagnosis of FMS were included. The mean age of the population was 73.6±15.4 years [39-90] with a majority of women (58.3%). Prior surgeries at the time of FMS diagnosis were trabeculectomy (4 eyes) and non-perforating deep sclerectomy (2 eyes). At presentation, mean IOP was 38.2±9.8mmHg, which decreased to 17.9±7.7mmHg (P<0.0001) at final follow-up (mean follow-up of 4.9±4.3 months). Complete success was achieved in 6 eyes (50%) and qualified success in 10 eyes (83%), with two eyes failing treatment. There was no statistical significant relationship between demographic data and clinical success (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION: Pars plana vitrectomy combined with IZH appears to be a safe and effective technique for the treatment of FMS in pseudophakic patients.
