To evaluate the effects of intravitreal ranibizumab (IVR) as adjunctive treatment for trabeculectomy with mitomycin C (TMC) in neovascular glaucoma (NVG).
This is a prospective study of 15 consecutive eyes from 14 patients (One patients had NVG in both eyes at presentation.) with NVG presented at the Department of Ophthalmology, Faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital, Mahidol University, Bangkok, Thailand between December 2008 and December 2009. Each eye received IVR (0.5 mg/0.05 ml) 1 week before TMC. Trabeculectomy was performed with fornix-based conjunctival flap method.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| intravitreal ranibizumab | Experimental | Ranibizumab was injected into vitreous cavity in the study eye once (0.5 mg/0.05 ml) at least 1 week before performing trabeculectomy with mitomycin C. |
|
| Name | Type | Description | Arm Group Labels | Other Names |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| intravitreal ranibizumab | Drug | The patients received IVR (0.5 mg in 0.05 ml) injection through the pars plana in the operating room. A fornix-based conjunctival flap technique trabeculectomy with intraoperative mitomycin C was performed within 2 weeks after IVR. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| The change of intraocular pressure (IOP) | The change of intraocular pressure (IOP)between before trabeculectomy with mitomycin C (TMC) and after TMC. We compared this change at several time points such as at 6, 12 months and at last visit. The most important is the change of IOP between before TMC and at last visit as well as the level of IOP at last visit which is at of the longest follow-up time. | Change of IOP between before trabeculectomy and at last visit |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| The safety of intravitreal ranibizumab (IVR) | Blood pressure (mmHg) change | On the day patient receives IVR |
