Single-suture single-knot ab interno cyclopexy for extensive posttraumatic cyclodialysis: Modified sewing machine technique
Gupta S; Selvan H; Gupta VJournal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery 2019; 45: 3-7
We describe a modified sewing machine technique that is ab interno and minimally invasive. The single-suture, single-knot endocyclopexy (internal suture fixation) is performed to correct cyclodialysis. This inside-out technique is an alternative to existing standard cleft repair procedures, such as external direct/indirect cyclopexy and endocyclotamponade (internal mechanical tamponade using extraneous agents). RESULTS: in 1 case indicate that the modified technique can be used as a primary procedure and in eyes in which previous cyclopexy failed.
