Abstract
Purpose: To describe the long-term results of deep sclerectomy with collagen implant (DSCI) with or without adjuvant mitomycin C in Korean patients with primary or secondary open-angle glaucoma (OAG).

Methods: This retrospective review was comprised of 65 Korean patients who received DSCI with or without adjuvant mitomycin C due to primary or secondary OAG. Patients were followed for 72 months after surgery. Complete success was defined as intraocular pressure (IOP) <21 mmHg without medication and qualified success was defined as IOP <21 mmHg with or without medication.

Results: Mean postoperative follow-up period was 53.0 ¡¾ 16.2 months. Mean IOP was 30.5 ¡¾ 11.7 mmHg preoperatively, 8.4 ¡¾ 4.3 mmHg at postoperative day one and 13.4 ¡¾ 3.8 mmHg 60 months after surgery. The mean number of glaucoma medications was decreased from 3.6 ¡¾ 1.1 to 1.6 ¡¾ 1.3 at 60 months after the operation. Complete and qualified success rates were 36.7% and 79.6% at postoperative 60 months, respectively (Kaplan-Meier survival curve). No shallow or flat anterior chamber, endophthalmitis, or surgery-induced significant cataract was observed.

Conclusions: The results of DSCI in Korean patients presented here seem reasonably excellent with qualified success rates of over 70% at six years with negligible complications.
