[Rare association--luetic interstitial keratitis and sarcoidosis granulomatous uveitis. Case report].

The goal of this article is to present a clinical case, being particular by the existence of keratitis at a patient who was diagnosed after histological exam of the ocular contents with sarcoidosis granulomatous uveitis. We try to review some aspects characteristic to sarcoidosis, disease which returns in our attention due to the high frequency of uveitis and that's why it deserves a special place in etiology of uveitis.

[Congenital glaucoma and trabeculectomy].

The authors presents 27 cases (48 eyes) with congenital glaucoma operated with trabeculectomy. We used 3 different procedures of trabeculectomy: suture of the scleral flap in two points; by placing a silicon membrane under the scleral flap; tightly close of the scleral flap with five sutures. We concluded that the last of the procedures gave us the best results, especially when was used in the incipient stage of the disease. From this study results that the mechanism of action of trabeculectomy is more an opening of a physiological way of drainage then a filtration to the subconjunctival space.

[Quantitative trabeculectomy].

The outcomes of the trabeculectomy which finally establish one normal ocular pressure are presented. The surgery method is adjustment of the thickness of the sclera, fragment depending on the initial ocular pressure. The evacuation of the aqueous humor after trabeculectomy is indirect proportionally with the thickness of the scleral fragment. The method was used in 36 eyes with different patterns of glaucoma. At this patients the initial ocular pressure was until 50 mm Hg. In 72.2% from cases was necessary only one surgery intervention for maintain the ocular pressure, without auxiliary drugs; two eyes underwent still one surgical intervention and in seven eyes was necessary auxiliary hypotensor drugs. The outcomes were good in 97.2% from cases. One failure was obtained in one eye with closed angle glaucoma where the trabeculectomy was complicated with malignant glaucoma. Complications were hypema, atalamy with or without choroidal detachment and high ocular pressure. All complications were improved after conservative treatment excepting the case with malignant glaucoma.
