Abstract:
ObjectiveAfter performed the silicone-rubber membrane implantation in rabbits, we investigated the efficacy and security of the silicone-rubber membrane implant through observed intraocular pressure, bleb and morphologic result. MethodsForty rabbits were divided into 4 groups by randomized fashiones. Each group consisted of 10 rabbits. Subscleroflapectomy and the silicone membrane implantation were operated in one eye of each rabbit. And the other eye was only performed subscleroflapectomy, which be controlled eye. The change of intraocular pressure, bleb were observed postoperatively. And every eye for histopathologic examination. ResultsThe lasted time of lower intraocular pressure and filtration bleb in implanted eyes were longer than controlled eyes in two groups. Light microscope revealed that patent drainage tract and bite site could be seen in cilicone membrafe implant eyes. The activity and regularity of fibroblast proliferation in implanted eyes and controlled eyes were similarly. The excessive expression of fibroblast proliferation was not excit ed by silicone membrane. ConclusionIt is characterized by safely, effectively and operate simply that silicone membrane implant drainage surgery act as a new drainage surgery.
