Purpose: To report the resolution of a massive suprachoroidal hemorrhage after penetrating keratoplasty by sclerotomy.
Case summary: A 64-year-old man with a corneal opacity in the left eye underwent penetrating keratoplasty. On the first postoperative day, a massive suprachoroidal hemorrhage was detected. After two surgical drainage procedures, the suprachoroidal hemorrhage subsided and the graft survived. His visual acuity was 20/240 two months post-operation.
Conclusions: We report a patient with massive suprachoroidal hemorrhage after penetrating keratoplasty that was improved by surgical drainage procedures.
