Acute intraoperative choroidal effusion.

A E Maumenee, M F Schwartz

    American Journal of Ophthalmology
    |July 15, 1985

    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Acute intraoperative choroidal effusion is a poorly recognized surgical complication. Immediate wound closure is key, with intraocular pressure normalizing within 30 minutes.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Surgical Complications

    Background:

    • Acute intraoperative choroidal effusion is an underrecognized complication during intraocular surgery.
    • This condition can potentially precede more severe outcomes like expulsive hemorrhage.

    Observation:

    • The study analyzed five cases of acute choroidal effusion and one case of localized choroidal hemorrhage during intraocular surgery.
    • Observed that effusion areas remain localized following intervention.

    Findings:

    • Immediate wound closure is the primary treatment for acute intraoperative choroidal effusion.
    • Intraocular pressure may transiently increase to 80 mm Hg or higher post-closure, but typically normalizes within 15 to 30 minutes.

    Implications:

    • Prompt wound closure prevents prolapse of intraocular tissues.

  • Scleral puncture is generally not indicated if wound closure is achieved before tissue prolapse.
