Summary: Purpose: The aim of our study is evaluation of the risk factors for development of expulsive hemorrhage among patients operated in Department of Ophthalmology, Medical Academy in Bia³ystok from 1990 to 2000.
Material and methods: This was a retrospective study of 18 patients with massive suprachoroidal hemorrhage occurring in association with cataract and glaucoma surgery.
Results: The mean age of patients with expulsive hemorrhage was 69,5 years. There were 10 women (55,6%) and 8 men (44,4%). In the population of patients in whom the suprachoroidal hemorrhage occurred hypertension was present in 5 (27,7%) and diabetes in 3 (16,6%). 8 patients (44,4%) had reported atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. 7 patients (38,8%) had a history of glaucoma, 6 (33,3%) had high myopia. 1 patient had posterior synechiae after uveitis. All surgeries, except one, were performed under local anesthesia. There were no associations between suprachoroidal hemorrhage development and season.
Conclusion: The results of our study suggest, that the risk factors for the development of massive intraoperative suprachoroidal hemorrhage are: high myopia, glaucoma and systemic cardiovascular diseases. A knowledge of these risk factors can help the physician in identifying patients, who are at a greater risk of having massive suprachoroidal hemorrhage.
