| Summary: |
Purpose: The paper
proves to show the influence of new strategies in
therapy of primary glaucoma, on the number of
trabeculectomies performed.
Material and methods: Sex, age, kind of glaucoma
and indications to the surgery in patients treated in
the Municipal Hospital of Gdynia in the years 1992-2003
have been analyzed.
Results: The number of hospitalized females was
much higher than males. 60,34% of them were over 60
years old. In that period 865 patients were hospitalized,
614 with POAG and 251 with PACG. In 163 of them, 124
trabeculectomies were performed: in the years 1992-1997
and 39 in the period of 1998-2003 years.
Conclusions: The decrease in trabeculectomies
indicates more and more effective prophylaxis and
treatment of glaucoma. |
