[A communication on the treatment of the hypotony syndrome after trabeculotomy (author's transl)].

The authors report on 3 cases of the hypotony syndrome following trabeculotomy in young patients. 2 of these patients had glaucoma chronicum, the third had a clinical picture resembling pigment glaucoma. All 3 patients had before the operation a wide anterior chamber angle. Thy hypotony syndrome was treated conservately with atropine in the first two cases. Under this treatment a temporary increase in intraocular pressure was noted, by which the hypotony syndrome disappeared. In this state gonioscopy showed a cyclodialysis gap. In the third patient the cyclodialysis gap and an obvious leakage cushion occurred together with the hypotony syndrom. Because of this finding an operation against the hypotony syndrom was performed, by which however, the intraocular pressure could not be sufficiently increased and the hypotony syndrome up till now could not be removed.
