Abstract

摘要

This study aimed to design and evaluate a novel trans-bleb device (TBD) for draining aqueous humor trapped within fibrotic blebs following Ahmed glaucoma valve (AGV) implantation in dogs. Two clinically normal, purpose-bred Beagles underwent AGV implantation surgery in one eye. When a bleb was formed with increased intraocular pressure (IOP), the TBD was inserted through a fenestration created in the bleb.

Introduction

简介

In veterinary medicine, canine primary glaucoma lacks a definitive cure and significantly compromises the quality of life of affected patients. Therefore, both medical and surgical interventions are essential for alleviating pain and preserving vision

在兽医学中,犬原发性青光眼缺乏明确的治愈方法,并严重影响了受影响患者的生活质量。因此,医疗和手术干预对于缓解疼痛和保持视力至关重要

. Given the stepwise approach to glaucoma management, the strategy involves pursuing better outcomes through surgical intervention when adequate intraocular pressure (IOP) control cannot be maintained with medical treatment

鉴于青光眼管理的逐步方法,该策略涉及在药物治疗无法维持足够的眼压(IOP)控制时,通过手术干预寻求更好的结果

. Surgical treatment of glaucoma can be broadly categorized into methods that reduce aqueous inflow or increase aqueous outflow. The former includes cyclodestructive techniques that partially destroy the ciliary processes responsible for aqueous humor production

青光眼的手术治疗可以大致分为减少水流入或增加水流出的方法。前者包括部分破坏负责房水产生的睫状过程的睫状体破坏技术

. Various surgical techniques have been developed over time to enhance aqueous outflow, but the fundamental principle remains the same in filtration surgery: diverting the aqueous humor from the anterior chamber, where it cannot adequately drain through the natural outflow pathway, to the subconjunctival space via a newly created transscleral route.

随着时间的推移,已经开发出各种手术技术来增强房水流出,但过滤手术的基本原理保持不变:将房水从前房转移到结膜下空间,前房不能通过自然流出途径充分排出,通过新创建的经巩膜途径。

Various factors can lead to fibrosis of the subconjunctival bleb, including the wound healing response of the conjunctiva following surgery, the impact of various growth factors present in the aqueous humor on conjunctival tissues, and the inflammatory reactions of the conjunctiva resulting from long-term use of antiglaucoma medications.

各种因素可导致结膜下泡纤维化,包括手术后结膜的伤口愈合反应,房水中存在的各种生长因子对结膜组织的影响,以及长期使用抗青光眼药物引起的结膜炎症反应。

The objective of this preliminary study was to design a biomaterial trans-bleb device (TBD) that facilitates sufficient drainage of the aqueous humor trapped within fibrotic blebs while minimizing surgical intervention and tissue manipulation.

这项初步研究的目的是设计一种生物材料反式滤泡装置(TBD),该装置有助于充分引流纤维化滤泡内的房水,同时最大程度地减少手术干预和组织操作。此外,本研究旨在调查该装置在青光眼手术后形成的滤泡中的有效性。。

. The structure of the TBD consisted of a rectangular prism shape with a central lumen and protrusions at both ends and was fabricated using medical grade, biocompatible implantable silicone (NuSil MED-4830, Avantor Sciences). The Shore A hardness of this silicone was 30, selected to closely match the properties of the silicone used in the AGV, ensuring the mechanical function was maintained while minimizing physical irritation of the eye.

。TBD的结构由矩形棱柱形组成,具有中心腔和两端的突起,并使用医用级生物相容性植入式硅胶(NuSil MED-4830,Avantor Sciences)制造。这种硅胶的肖氏A硬度为30,选择与AGV中使用的硅胶的性能紧密匹配,确保保持机械功能,同时最大程度地减少对眼睛的物理刺激。

. These characteristics were chosen to approximate its properties and secure a compatible tissue response. The height of the device when placed on the sclera was 2 mm, designed not to exceed the maximal thickness of 2.1 mm of the AGV (Model FP8, New World Medical). Since the AGV has flow control mechanisms, the design aimed to prevent additional resistance to aqueous humor flow caused by the TBD, creating a flow route as wide as possible.

.选择这些特征是为了近似其特性并确保兼容的组织反应。当放置在巩膜上时,装置的高度为2毫米,设计不超过AGV(FP8型,新世界医学)的最大厚度2.1毫米。由于AGV具有流量控制机制,因此设计旨在防止由TBD引起的房水流动的额外阻力,从而尽可能宽地创建流动路线。

Consequently, the lumen size was designed to be 2 × 1 mm, to ensure the maximal width of the flow route, considering the prevention of flow hindrance by inflammatory substances or surrounding tissues. The protrusions were designed to ensure that the TBD remained securely posited in the bleb wall, with the thicker parts positioned towards the inner side of the bleb and the thinner parts towards the outer side, preventing abrasion of the conjunctiva while increasing fixation.

因此,考虑到炎症物质或周围组织对流动的阻碍,管腔尺寸设计为2×1 mm,以确保流动路线的最大宽度。突起的设计旨在确保TBD牢固地放置在泡壁中,较厚的部分朝向泡的内侧,较薄的部分朝向外侧,防止结膜磨损,同时增加固定。

All the edges of the TBD were rounded off to minimize the potential for abrasion. This configuration prevented dislodgement of the TBD along with an overall flat shape, minimizing interference with ocular movements..

TBD的所有边缘都被磨圆,以最大程度地减少磨损的可能性。这种配置防止了TBD的移位以及整体平坦的形状,最大程度地减少了对眼球运动的干扰。。

Animals and AGV implantation surgery

动物和AGV植入手术

All animal procedures and experiments were reviewed and approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) of Seoul National University (permit number: SNU-220320-1) and performed in accordance with the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology (ARVO) Statement for the Use of Animals in Ophthalmic and Vision Research and the Animal Research: Reporting of In Vivo Experiments (ARRIVE) guidelines..

所有动物程序和实验均由首尔国立大学机构动物护理和使用委员会(IACUC)审查和批准(许可证编号:SNU-220320-1),并根据视觉和眼科研究协会(ARVO)关于在眼科和视觉研究中使用动物的声明和动物研究:体内实验报告(ARRIVE)指南进行。。

Two 2-year-old castrated male purpose-bred Beagles, each weighing 11 kg, were included in this study. Both dogs underwent a comprehensive ophthalmic examination that included neuro-ophthalmic examinations, Schirmer tear test, rebound tonometry (TonoVet; iCare), slit-lamp biomicroscopy (SL-D7; Topcon), binocular indirect ophthalmoscopy (Vantage Indirect Ophthalmoscope; Keeler), and fluorescein staining (Flu-Glo; Akorn Pharmaceuticals).

这项研究包括两只2岁去势的雄性专门繁殖的比格犬,每只体重11公斤。两只狗都接受了全面的眼科检查,包括神经眼科检查,Schirmer泪液测试,反弹眼压测定(TonoVet;iCare),裂隙灯生物显微镜(SL-D7;Topcon),双眼间接检眼镜(Vantage间接检眼镜;Keeler)和荧光素染色(Flu-Glo;Akorn Pharmaceuticals)。

In addition, iridocorneal angle measurements with gonioscopy and ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) were performed to assess the integrity of the outflow pathway. The results of these examinations confirmed normal ocular findings in both dogs. No abnormalities were noted on the overall physical examination, laboratory blood tests, or thoracic radiographic evaluation..

此外,使用角膜镜和超声生物显微镜(UBM)进行虹膜角膜角度测量,以评估流出途径的完整性。这些检查的结果证实了两只狗的眼部检查结果正常。整体体格检查,实验室血液检查或胸部影像学评估均未发现异常。。

In preparation for AGV implantation, standard procedures were followed for general anesthesia (premedication with 0.002 mg/kg medetomidine IV, induction using 2 mg/kg alfaxalone IV, and maintenance via isoflurane inhalation) and aseptic preparation of the globe and surrounding periocular tissues. Implantation was performed in the superior temporal quadrant of the left eye in both dogs.

在准备AGV植入时,遵循标准程序进行全身麻醉(术前使用0.002 mg/kg美托咪定IV,使用2 mg/kg阿法沙隆IV诱导,并通过异氟醚吸入维持)和无菌制备眼球和周围眼周组织。在两只狗的左眼颞上象限进行植入。

All surgeries were conducted by a single board-certified veterinary ophthalmologist (SK). The right eye was unoperated and served as the control eye..

所有手术均由单一委员会认证的兽医眼科医生(SK)进行。右眼未经手术,用作对照眼。。

The surgical procedure followed the standard techniques: A fornix-based conjunctival flap was created with an incision approximately 5 mm posterior to the limbus. This approach was chosen to minimize the risk of limbal stem cell damage, facilitate surgical manipulation during the procedure, and reduce the likelihood of incision exposure, particularly considering the tendency of canine patients for self-trauma postoperatively.

手术过程遵循标准技术:在角膜缘后约5 mm处切开穹窿结膜瓣。选择这种方法是为了最大程度地降低角膜缘干细胞损伤的风险,促进手术过程中的手术操作,并降低切口暴露的可能性,特别是考虑到犬类患者术后自我创伤的倾向。

. The incision was made with care to ensure optimal access while avoiding excessive tissue disruption. After exposing the underlying sclera, A 4 × 6 mm partial-thickness flap was created in the sclera near the limbus, where the tube would be inserted. The primed AGV was then positioned within the pocket, approximately 10–12 mm away from the limbus, and secured to the sclera using 8−0 nylon sutures.

切口小心,以确保最佳通路,同时避免过度组织破坏。。然后将引发的AGV放置在距离角膜缘约10-12 mm的口袋内,并使用8-0尼龙缝线固定在巩膜上。

The tube, with its beveled tip, was inserted through a 22-gauge needle track created below the scleral flap, allowing it to be positioned in the anterior chamber. Once the tube was in place, each side of the scleral flap was sutured using 8−0 nylon in a simple interrupted pattern, followed by sequential closure of Tenon’s capsule and conjunctiva using 8−0 polyglactin 910 sutures in a double continuous pattern..

带有斜角尖端的管子通过巩膜瓣下方产生的22号针孔插入,使其能够定位在前房中。管就位后,使用8-0尼龙以简单的间断方式缝合巩膜瓣的每一侧,然后使用8-0聚乳酸910缝线以双连续方式顺序闭合Tenon囊和结膜。。

Postoperative care included administering cefovecin 8 mg/kg subcutaneously once and meloxicam at 0.2 mg/kg orally on the first day, followed by a maintenance dose of 0.1 mg/kg daily for 2 weeks. Topical application of atropine 1% ophthalmic drops was performed every 3 days, and gentle digital ocular compression was applied to the inferior part of the globe through the lower eyelid for 5 s once daily to induce additional IOP elevation for bleb formation.

术后护理包括在第一天皮下注射头孢维辛8 mg/kg,口服美洛昔康0.2 mg/kg,然后每天维持剂量0.1 mg/kg,持续2周。每3天局部应用1%阿托品滴眼液,并通过下眼睑对眼球下部进行轻微的数字眼部按压,每天一次,持续5 s,以诱导额外的眼压升高以形成气泡。

. Following surgery, IOP was measured daily at a consistent time before digital ocular compression. Additionally, the presence of aqueous flare, tube obstruction, and bleb formation was assessed using a portable slit-lamp biomicroscope. A comprehensive ophthalmic examination was performed 3 weeks after surgery, at which time the total height of the bleb and the thickness of the bleb wall were evaluated using UBM..

A, B), TBD application surgery was performed. Both dogs underwent preoperative preparation following the same procedure as in the previous surgery. A stay suture was placed near the limbus to pull the globe downward and expose the bleb. The incision site for TBD application was made near the superior nasal quadrant of the bleb wall, approximately midway between the anterior and posterior edges of the AGV plate.

A、 B),进行TBD应用手术。两只狗都按照与之前手术相同的程序进行了术前准备。在角膜缘附近放置一条拉线缝合线,将球体向下拉并暴露出气泡。TBD应用的切口部位位于气泡壁的上鼻象限附近,大约在AGV板的前后边缘之间。

The incision was carefully positioned along the perimeter of the bleb wall to avoid damage to the conjunctiva in the area of aqueous humor drainage and was placed close to the prior AGV surgical site to minimize disruption to the surrounding intact tissues. The conjunctiva was minimally incised about 7 mm, only enough to insert the TBD.

沿着泡壁的周边小心地放置切口,以避免房水引流区域的结膜受损,并将其放置在之前的AGV手术部位附近,以最大程度地减少对周围完整组织的破坏。结膜最小切开约7毫米,仅足以插入TBD。

Tenon’s capsule was bluntly dissected as little as possible to expose the underlying bleb. Upon revealing the surface of the bleb, the insertion area was gently tapped using a No. 11 blade to create a fenestration for TBD placement on the bleb. Subsequently, a scleral punch was used to make an appropriately sized fenestration, approximately 4 × 2 mm, to allow the insertion of the TBD while ensuring its protrusions could engage with the bleb wall.

尽可能少地直接解剖Tenon的囊以暴露下面的气泡。在露出水泡表面后,使用11号刀片轻轻敲击插入区域,以在水泡上形成用于TBD放置的开窗。随后,使用巩膜穿孔器进行适当大小的开窗,大约4× 2毫米,以允许插入TBD,同时确保其突起可以与泡壁接合。

The TBD was then inserted through the fenestration, confirming the flow of aqueous humor through the lumen (Fig. .

然后通过开窗插入TBD,确认房水通过管腔流动(图)。

E, F), AGV-TBD removal surgery was performed for histological examination. Both dogs underwent the same preoperative treatment, anesthesia, and sterilization procedures using the aforementioned method. With utmost care to maintain the position of the AGV and TBD, the AGV-TBD complex and surrounding tissues, including Tenon’s capsule and a small portion of the conjunctiva, were carefully excised.

E、 F),进行AGV-TBD切除手术进行组织学检查。两只狗都使用上述方法进行了相同的术前治疗,麻醉和灭菌程序。为了保持AGV和TBD的位置,仔细切除了AGV-TBD复合体和周围组织,包括Tenon囊和一小部分结膜。

After excision, the limbal entry site of the tube was sutured using a cruciate pattern, and both the Tenon’s capsule and conjunctiva were subsequently closed in a double continuous pattern, all using 8−0 polyglactin 910 sutures. Two weeks later, complete healing of the sutured area was observed, and a comprehensive ocular examination, including neuro-ophthalmic examination, rebound tonometry, slit-lamp biomicroscopy, and binocular indirect ophthalmoscopy, revealed no significant abnormalities..

切除后,使用十字形缝合管的角膜缘进入部位,随后以双连续模式闭合Tenon囊和结膜,均使用8-0 polyglactin 910缝合线。两周后,观察到缝合区域完全愈合,并进行了全面的眼部检查,包括神经眼科检查,反弹眼压测定,裂隙灯生物显微镜检查和双眼间接检眼镜检查,未发现明显异常。。

For histological examination, the AGV-TBD complex tissue sample was fixed in 10% neutral-buffered formalin and trimmed to obtain a central section, ensuring that a sagittal section of the TBD lumen was included. The processed tissue was embedded in paraffin wax and sectioned to a thickness of 4 µm. H&E staining was performed to visualize the general tissue morphology, while picrosirius red staining was used to assess collagen deposition.

Clinical observations

临床观察

Both dogs exhibited mild-to-moderate chemosis and hyperemia following AGV surgery, which gradually resolved; from day 4, only mild hyperemia was observed. No aqueous flare was detected throughout the follow-up period. From day 10, both dogs exhibited visible blebs, which coincided with the period of increased IOP in the operated eye.

AGV手术后,两只狗均表现出轻度至中度的化疗和充血,并逐渐消退;从第4天开始,仅观察到轻度充血。在整个随访期间未检测到水性耀斑。从第10天开始,两只狗都表现出可见的气泡,这与手术眼眼压升高的时期一致。

UBM examination

UBM检查

Three weeks after AGV surgery, UBM examination revealed the presence of blebs above the AGV body in both dogs. The wall thicknesses were measured at 0.5 mm for dog 1 and 0.6 mm for dog 2, with bleb heights of 2.9 mm and 4.2 mm respectively (ImageJ version 1.53; National Institutes of Health). A cavity where aqueous humor accumulated was also observed between the bleb wall and AGV body (Fig. .

AGV手术后三周,UBM检查显示两只狗的AGV身体上方都存在气泡。狗1的壁厚为0.5 mm,狗2的壁厚为0.6 mm,气泡高度分别为2.9 mm和4.2 mm(ImageJ版本1.53;National Institutes of Health)。。

Three weeks after TBD application, UBM examination revealed relatively thick bleb walls, along with diffuse hypoechoic areas, indicating the presence of aqueous humor imbibition in Tenon’s capsule and conjunctiva near the AGV-TBD complex.

. H&E staining revealed the presence of a fibrotic membrane composed of fibrous connective tissue and fibroblasts on the inner surface in contact with AGV and TBD, and there were cavities where AGV and TBD existed. The continuity between the fibrotic membranes and the patency between the cavities of the AGV and TBD indicated that the TBD had managed to penetrate the fibrotic bleb.

H&E染色显示在与AGV和TBD接触的内表面上存在由纤维结缔组织和成纤维细胞组成的纤维化膜,并且存在AGV和TBD存在的空腔。纤维化膜之间的连续性以及AGV和TBD腔之间的通畅性表明TBD已经设法穿透纤维化泡。

Confined to the tissue surrounding the fibrous membrane, mild infiltration of inflammatory cells, congestion, partial edema, fibrosis, and angiogenesis were observed, suggesting a mild inflammatory response to the implants and to the aqueous humor shunted from the anterior chamber. While both regions exhibited comparable inflammatory and fibrotic responses, minor differences in collagen fiber maturity were observed; in dog 1, the fibrotic tissue in both regions appeared comparable in maturity, whereas in dog 2, the TBD region tended to show more densely packed and aligned collagen fibers, indicating more advanced tissue remodeling compared to the AGV region.

局限于纤维膜周围的组织,观察到炎性细胞轻度浸润,充血,部分水肿,纤维化和血管生成,表明对植入物和从前房分流的房水有轻度炎症反应。虽然这两个区域都表现出相当的炎症和纤维化反应,但观察到胶原纤维成熟度的微小差异;在狗1中,两个区域的纤维化组织在成熟度上似乎相当,而在狗2中,TBD区域倾向于显示出更密集和排列的胶原纤维,表明与AGV区域相比,组织重塑更为先进。

This observation was consistent with the results of additional staining. Picrosirius red staining revealed a positive reaction by staining the fibrotic membrane structure and surrounding Tenon’s tissue red. The fibrotic membrane exhibited a relatively lighter red color than the mature collagen fibers observed in the adjacent Tenon’s tissue.

该观察结果与额外染色的结果一致。Picrosirius红染色通过将纤维化膜结构和周围的Tenon组织染成红色显示出阳性反应。纤维化膜显示出比在相邻Tenon组织中观察到的成熟胶原纤维相对较浅的红色。

Immunostaining with α-SMA revealed intense positive staining in the fibroblast-like cells constituting the fibrotic membrane, suggesting myofibroblast differentiation. This finding indicated the presence of contractile cells within the fibrotic tissue, which are known to contribute to fibrosis and wound healing processes.

Discussion

讨论

Owing to the potentially fatal consequences on patient vision, it is imperative to make efforts to address situations in which IOP remains uncontrolled after glaucoma surgery. This becomes particularly crucial when elevated IOP is not only a transient outcome of factors such as tube obstruction but also arises because of irreversible conditions such as bleb fibrosis.

由于对患者视力的潜在致命后果,必须努力解决青光眼手术后眼压仍然不受控制的情况。当眼压升高不仅是诸如管阻塞等因素的短暂结果,而且由于诸如滤泡纤维化等不可逆条件而产生时,这变得尤为关键。

Under these circumstances, few therapeutic options are available, demanding meticulous decision-making.

在这种情况下,几乎没有可用的治疗选择,需要细致的决策。

. Fibrotic bleb formation following glaucoma surgeries has been shown to result from multiple factors, including preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative influences in both human and veterinary medicine. Surgical trauma triggers an inflammatory cascade marked by the release of cytokines such as transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β), platelet-derived growth factor, and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), which promote fibroblast activation, myofibroblast differentiation, and subsequent extracellular matrix remodeling.

青光眼手术后纤维化滤泡的形成已被证明是由多种因素引起的,包括术前,术中和术后对人类和兽医的影响。手术创伤引发炎症级联反应,其特征在于细胞因子如转化生长因子-β(TGF-β),血小板衍生生长因子和血管内皮生长因子(VEGF)的释放,其促进成纤维细胞活化,肌成纤维细胞分化和随后的细胞外基质重塑。

. Preventing fibrosis before its onset remains critical to maintaining the functionality of surgical implants; however, once fibrosis has formed, secondary interventions may be required to restore aqueous humor flow. In both fields, various approaches have been applied in such situations, including needling bleb revision with MMC or 5-fluorouracil, surgical removal of fibrotic tissue, or performing the same or different glaucoma surgeries in different quadrants of the eye.

In the current study, the TBD was crafted to have a flat rectangular prism-like shape with a short central lumen. This design allowed for adequate drainage of the aqueous humor, ensuring its efficient expulsion from the vast and flat lumen into the adjacent healthy Tenon’s and conjunctival tissues. The device acts as a protective barrier, preventing fibrotic tissue from obstructing the shunting space.

在目前的研究中,TBD被制作成具有短中心腔的扁平矩形棱柱状形状。这种设计允许房水充分引流,确保其从宽阔平坦的腔中有效排出到邻近的健康肌腱和结膜组织中。该装置起到保护屏障的作用,防止纤维化组织阻塞分流空间。

The presence of vertical protrusions on both sides at both ends of the lumen contributed to the ability of the device to maintain its flat structure and securely attach to the bleb wall. To address concerns related to conjunctival complications such as thinning or erosion, the outer protrusions on the outer side of the bleb were designed to be thinner.

管腔两端两侧都存在垂直突起,这有助于该装置保持其平坦结构并牢固附着在泡壁上。为了解决与结膜并发症有关的问题,例如变薄或侵蚀,将滤泡外侧的外部突起设计为更薄。

Although it was only 3 weeks, no detrimental effects on eye movement or conjunctival integrity were observed throughout the experimental period..

虽然只有3周,但在整个实验期间没有观察到对眼球运动或结膜完整性的不利影响。。

. While this contribution was relatively modest, it provided an opportunity to examine whether adjunctive devices like the TBD could enhance drainage efficiency by supplementing the primary implant. The small surface area of the TBD may have limited its independent efficacy in significantly lowering IOP, especially when compared to larger implants.

。TBD的小表面积可能限制了其显着降低眼压的独立功效,特别是与较大的植入物相比。

Nevertheless, the device’s ability to bypass fibrotic blebs and redistribute aqueous humor to adjacent tissues represented an alternative mechanism of action that complements existing implants..

然而,该装置绕过纤维化泡并将房水重新分布到邻近组织的能力代表了一种替代作用机制,可以补充现有的植入物。。

On histological examination, a fibrous membrane was formed surrounding the TBD and AGV, which were connected to each other. In addition, patency between the cavities of the TBD and AGV was confirmed without obstruction due to fibrosis or formation of granulation tissue. There were no significant differences in the general characteristics of the fibrotic capsules surrounding the AGV and TBD, although the small sample size might have limited the detection of subtle or statistically significant variations.

。此外,证实了TBD和AGV腔之间的通畅性,没有由于纤维化或肉芽组织形成而阻塞。AGV和TBD周围纤维化囊的一般特征没有显着差异,尽管样本量小可能会限制细微或统计学上显着变化的检测。

Specifically, in dog 2, the fibrotic tissue surrounding the TBD appeared more advanced in maturation compared to the AGV region. This may reflect the fact that the TBD was implanted at a later stage, potentially amplifying the impact of sequential surgical invasions on the tissue response. Alternatively, the difference could be attributed to variations in localized tissue dynamics, such as differing levels of aqueous humor exposure or mechanical stress around the devices..

具体而言,在狗2中,与AGV区域相比,TBD周围的纤维化组织成熟程度更高。这可能反映了TBD在后期植入的事实,可能会放大连续手术侵袭对组织反应的影响。或者,这种差异可能归因于局部组织动力学的变化,例如不同水平的房水暴露或设备周围的机械应力。。

The location of conjunctival incisions for both AGV implantation and TBD placement was considered important, as it could have influenced the integrity and functionality of the bleb and the surrounding tissues, ultimately affecting surgical outcomes. Although the chosen incision technique—a fornix-based flap placed approximately 5 mm posterior to the limbus—provided procedural and structural advantages, the incision’s proximity to the implant plate and its interaction with the additional TBD placement site may present specific challenges.

AGV植入和TBD放置的结膜切口的位置被认为是重要的,因为它可能会影响滤泡和周围组织的完整性和功能,最终影响手术结果。尽管选择的切口技术(位于角膜缘后约5 mm处的穹窿皮瓣)提供了程序和结构上的优势,但切口与植入板的接近程度及其与额外TBD放置部位的相互作用可能会带来特定的挑战。

Previous studies in human medicine have shown that incision location can influence long-term outcomes, such as implant stability, bleb morphology, and the risk of device extrusion ​.

先前的人类医学研究表明,切口位置会影响长期结果,例如植入物的稳定性,气泡形态和器械挤出的风险​.

38

,

39

. For example, fornix-based approaches are often associated with easier visualization at the limbus during tube insertion and placement of the incision site away from the area of bleb formation, but they may also result in posterior visualization challenges, potentially leading to a higher risk of complications such as tube revision or endophthalmitis.

38

38

. Moreover, canine studies have highlighted species-specific considerations, such as the heightened inflammatory response and the tendency for external irritation

此外,犬类研究强调了特定物种的考虑因素,例如炎症反应加剧和外部刺激倾向

,

, which could further influence the success of glaucoma surgery. While the fornix-based approach, which involves making incisions at a distance from the limbus, provides certain advantages, the incision’s location near the plate and the additional TBD placement incision may exacerbate conjunctival scarring or impact the bleb’s absorptive capacity.

。虽然基于穹窿的方法(涉及在距离角膜缘一定距离处切开)具有一定的优势,但切口位于板附近和额外的TBD放置切口可能会加剧结膜瘢痕形成或影响滤泡的吸收能力。

These factors emphasize the importance of selecting an optimal incision technique tailored to both the patient’s anatomy and the surgical objectives. Future research should explore the comparative outcomes of limbal- and fornix-based approaches in canine patients, specifically evaluating the impact on long-term implant stability, bleb formation, and tissue healing..

这些因素强调了选择适合患者解剖结构和手术目标的最佳切口技术的重要性。未来的研究应该探索基于角膜缘和穹窿的方法在犬患者中的比较结果,特别是评估对长期植入物稳定性,气泡形成和组织愈合的影响。。

Interestingly, UBM examination following the application of TBD revealed shallowing of the aqueous cavity previously observed in blebs after AGV surgery, and no such cavities were found around the TBD. However, diffuse hypoechoic areas within the bleb tissue were observed, suggesting absorption of the aqueous humor through the surrounding tissues, including Tenon’s capsule and conjunctiva.

有趣的是,应用TBD后的UBM检查显示,AGV手术后先前在滤泡中观察到的水腔变浅,并且在TBD周围未发现此类腔。然而,观察到泡组织内弥漫性低回声区域,表明房水通过周围组织吸收,包括Tenon囊和结膜。

These findings indirectly imply that aqueous humor absorption occurred through the surrounding tissues without hindrance.

这些发现间接暗示房水吸收通过周围组织发生而没有阻碍。

. Additionally, shallowing of the cavity suggested that despite some degree of fibrosis following AGV surgery, the bleb retained the ability to absorb aqueous humor, which likely resulted in a relatively small amount of aqueous humor escaping through the TBD lumen after passing through the AGV bleb..

此外,空洞变浅表明,尽管AGV手术后出现了一定程度的纤维化,但滤泡仍保留了吸收房水的能力,这可能导致相对少量的房水在通过AGV滤泡后通过TBD腔逃逸。。

This study encountered a challenge in achieving an AGV outflow comparable to that of glaucomatous eyes, as the surgery was performed in normal eyes. To address this issue, two interventions were implemented: instilling atropine to maintain pupil dilation and performing digital ocular compression

这项研究在实现与青光眼眼相当的AGV流出方面遇到了挑战,因为手术是在正常眼睛中进行的。为了解决这个问题,实施了两种干预措施:滴注阿托品以维持瞳孔扩张和进行数字眼压

. Through these interventions, bleb formation was encouraged by ensuring a volume of aqueous humor drainage. Notably, a relatively low IOP was observed in the first 10 days after surgery, indicating the establishment of outflow. However, starting on day 10, similar IOP levels were consistently maintained in both eyes.

通过这些干预措施,通过确保房水引流量来鼓励气泡的形成。值得注意的是,在手术后的前10天观察到相对较低的眼压,表明建立了流出。然而,从第10天开始,两只眼睛的眼压水平一直保持相似。

It was hypothesized that the methods described have limitations in further increasing the outflow into the tube of the AGV due to the normal iridocorneal angle and outflow pathway, which hinder the observation of the effects of aqueous humor on the filtering site commonly observed in glaucomatous eyes.

据推测,由于正常的虹膜角膜角度和流出途径,所描述的方法在进一步增加进入AGV管的流出方面存在局限性,这阻碍了观察房水对青光眼眼中常见的过滤部位的影响。

Based on these considerations, the point at which the IOP became similar between both eyes was set as the endpoint of the study..

基于这些考虑,将双眼眼压相似的点设置为研究的终点。。

An additional approach was implemented to encourage the formation of fibrotic blebs, which involved avoiding the use of intraoperative MMC in AGV and TBD surgeries, as well as the omission of postoperative corticosteroids. While MMC is widely used to inhibit fibrosis and enhance surgical success, its exclusion was intended to observe the natural progression of bleb fibrosis.

实施了另一种方法来鼓励纤维化泡的形成,这涉及避免在AGV和TBD手术中使用术中MMC,以及省略术后皮质类固醇。虽然MMC被广泛用于抑制纤维化和提高手术成功率,但其排除旨在观察滤泡纤维化的自然进展。

Similarly, the omission of corticosteroids, commonly used to suppress inflammation and fibrosis, allowed for an unaltered evaluation of the TBD’s effects on aqueous humor drainage. These strategies provided a controlled environment to study the natural fibrotic response, but their absence may have influenced the severity and characteristics of the fibrotic tissue observed.

同样,省略通常用于抑制炎症和纤维化的皮质类固醇,可以对TBD对房水引流的影响进行不变的评估。这些策略为研究自然纤维化反应提供了受控环境,但它们的缺失可能影响了观察到的纤维化组织的严重程度和特征。

Future studies incorporating these agents could provide further clarity on their effects on surgical outcomes and device performance; For instance, the use of MMC or corticosteroids during or after TBD application could potentially extend the survival period of the bleb but might also influence the risk of late plate extrusion..

纳入这些药物的未来研究可以进一步阐明它们对手术结果和设备性能的影响;例如,在TBD应用期间或之后使用MMC或皮质类固醇可能会延长气泡的存活期,但也可能影响晚期平板挤压的风险。。

This study focused on examining the bleb fibrosis and the subsequent IOP reduction following TBD implantation, a direct comparison between AGV-alone and AGV with TBD conditions was not included. A previous study involving 10 clinically normal dogs undergoing single-piece Baerveldt glaucoma implant surgery reported a significant postoperative IOP reduction that returned to baseline within approximately 21 days and remained stable for 60 days thereafter, which aligns with the current study’s observations.

这项研究的重点是检查TBD植入后的滤泡纤维化和随后的眼压降低,不包括单独的AGV和具有TBD条件的AGV之间的直接比较。先前的一项研究涉及10只接受单件Baerveldt青光眼植入手术的临床正常狗,该研究报道术后眼压显着降低,在大约21天内恢复到基线水平,此后60天保持稳定,这与当前研究的观察结果一致。

. Such trends, along with the inherent limitations of normal eyes in replicating glaucomatous conditions, guided the decision to prioritize TBD implantation over including an AGV-alone group in this preliminary study.

这种趋势,以及正常眼睛在复制青光眼疾病方面的固有局限性,指导了在这项初步研究中优先考虑TBD植入而不是仅包括AGV组的决定。

Although this was a short-term study, the findings demonstrated that TBD could serve as an efficient and less invasive approach for managing elevated IOP in the presence of fibrotic blebs. The simplicity of TBD not only aids in cost reduction but also provides flexibility in its application. In this study, TBD was applied to the superior nasal quadrant of the bleb, but it could be adjusted according to needs, such as towards the superior temporal quadrant or the retrobulbar direction, and multiple TBDs could be implemented if required, even for fibrotic blebs formed around the first TBD.

尽管这是一项短期研究,但研究结果表明,TBD可以作为一种有效且侵入性较小的方法,用于在存在纤维化滤泡的情况下管理升高的眼压。TBD的简单性不仅有助于降低成本,而且为其应用提供了灵活性。在这项研究中,TBD被应用于气泡的上鼻象限,但可以根据需要进行调整,例如朝向颞上象限或球后方向,并且如果需要,可以实施多个TBD,即使对于在第一个TBD周围形成的纤维化泡也是如此。

The versatility of TBD suggests its potential utility in offering a different approach for managing bleb fibrosis following glaucoma surgery..

TBD的多功能性表明其在青光眼手术后提供治疗滤泡纤维化的不同方法方面的潜在效用。。

This preliminary study is limited by its small sample size and short follow-up period, which restricted the ability to evaluate the long-term efficacy and tissue response to the TBD. The results indicate that the TBD was tolerated in aqueous humor drainage up to 21 days after surgery, but did not provide conclusive evidence for its effectiveness beyond this period.

这项初步研究受到样本量小和随访期短的限制,这限制了评估TBD长期疗效和组织反应的能力。结果表明,TBD在手术后21天内可以耐受房水引流,但没有提供超过这一时期的有效性的确凿证据。

the study design included periodic ophthalmic evaluations to confirm encapsulated bleb formation and ensure the absence of functional abnormalities in the dogs’ eyes following tissue sampling, the experiment was designed with a minimal follow-up duration and small sample size to reduce experimental stress on the animals and minimize the number of animals sacrificed.

该研究设计包括定期眼科评估,以确认包裹的滤泡形成,并确保组织取样后狗眼中没有功能异常,该实验的设计具有最小的随访时间和较小的样本量,以减少对动物的实验压力,并尽量减少牺牲的动物数量。

From the perspective of conjunctival tissue healing, the three-week period included the initial clotting and vascular reactions within the first 5 days post-surgery, followed by the inflammatory phase and fibroplasia lasting approximately 15 days, including granulation tissue formation. However, this timeframe may have been insufficient to evaluate the subsequent remodeling phase and to gain a more detailed understanding of aqueous humor drainage dynamics and tissue adaptations.

从结膜组织愈合的角度来看,三周的时间包括手术后前5天内的初始凝血和血管反应,然后是持续约15天的炎症期和纤维增生,包括肉芽组织形成。然而,这个时间范围可能不足以评估随后的重塑阶段,也不足以更详细地了解房水引流动力学和组织适应。

. Despite employing various strategies to encourage bleb formation, the inherent differences between normal and glaucomatous eyes presented fundamental challenges, making it difficult to fully assess the long-term efficacy and stability of TBD. Additionally, while anti-inflammatory treatments were administered following both AGV and TBD surgeries, and distinct signs of uveitis including aqueous flare were absent, it is possible that surgically induced intraocular inflammation may have influenced the initial reduction in IOP..

尽管采用了各种策略来鼓励气泡的形成,但正常眼和青光眼眼之间的固有差异提出了根本性的挑战,因此很难充分评估TBD的长期疗效和稳定性。此外,虽然在AGV和TBD手术后均进行了抗炎治疗,并且没有明显的葡萄膜炎迹象,包括水性眩晕,但手术引起的眼内炎症可能影响了眼压的初始降低。。

In conclusion, TBD represents a novel approach to address bleb fibrosis in the aftermath of glaucoma surgery. The preliminary results of this study demonstrate its potential to restore aqueous humor flow and reduce IOP in the short term. However, limitations such as the small sample size, short follow-up period, and use of normal rather than glaucomatous eyes necessitate further research.

总之,TBD代表了一种解决青光眼手术后滤泡纤维化的新方法。这项研究的初步结果表明,它有可能在短期内恢复房水流量并降低眼压。然而,诸如样本量小,随访时间短以及使用正常眼而不是青光眼眼等局限性需要进一步研究。

Future studies should focus on evaluating the long-term effects of the TBD, including its impact on fibrotic blebs and IOP control over extended periods. Additionally, comparisons between TBD and other surgical techniques, the role of adjunctive agents such as MMC or corticosteroids, and the influence of incision site strategies on outcomes would contribute to a better understanding of its clinical utility and potential for broader application in glaucoma management.

未来的研究应侧重于评估TBD的长期影响,包括其对纤维化滤泡和长期眼压控制的影响。此外,TBD与其他手术技术之间的比较,MMC或皮质类固醇等辅助药物的作用以及切口部位策略对结局的影响将有助于更好地了解其临床实用性和在青光眼管理中更广泛应用的潜力。

Optimization of the device design to address challenges such as the risk of conjunctival complications and improving bleb survival would also be essential to maximize its efficacy..

优化设备设计以应对诸如结膜并发症风险和改善滤泡存活率等挑战,对于最大限度地提高其疗效也是至关重要的。。
