Abstract:
PURPOSE:To report a rare complication, delayed suprachoroidal hemorrhage, of needle revision of a nonfunctioning trabeculectomy bleb in a patient with previously undetected hairy cell leukemia. DESIGN:Interventional case report. METHODS; An 89-year-old man presented with massive delayed suprachoroidal hemorrhage after needle revision of a trabeculectomy bleb. RESULTS:Routine investigations before choriodal drainage showed a low platelet count. Anterior chamber washout and choroidal drainage were done after intravenous platelet infusions. Subsequently, the diagnosis of hairy cell leukemia was made by the hematologist. CONCLUSIONS:Delayed suprachoroidal hemorrhage is a rare but devastating complication of needle revision of trabeculectomy blebs and should be borne in mind while performing this seemingly trivial outpatient procedure.
