Comparing Posterior Release Sclerotomy With Conventional Evisceration Surgery.

Comparative Analysis of Posterior Release Sclerotomy vs Conventional Ball Implantation in Evisceration Surgery

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 3 Jun 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The primary objective of this interventional study is to compare posterior release sclerotomy in the scleral cup with conventional ball implantation during evisceration, focusing on intraoperative feasibility, postoperative outcomes, and implant stability. Specific objectives include: 1. Assessing the rate of implant migration and extrusion. 2. Evaluating the long-term stability of the implant within the scleral shell. 3. Investigating the occurrence of complications such as exposure or infection. 4. Analyzing the functional and anatomical outcomes. 5. Comparing patient satisfaction and quality of life measures.
