Recurrent progressive anterior segment fibrosis syndrome following a descemet-stripping endothelial keratoplasty in an infant with congenital aniridia.
[aniridia]
Progressive
anterior
segment
fibrosis
syndrome
(
ASFS
)
,
after
intraocular
surgery
in
older
children
(
≥
9
years
)
and
adults
with
congenital
aniridia
,
is
described
in
the
literature
.
In
this
report
,
we
describe
an
unique
case
of
ASFS
in
an
infant
with
congenital
aniridia
following
a
combined
trabeculotomy-ectomy
and
its
recurrence
after
a
descemet
stripping
endothelial
keratoplasty
.
The
ophthalmologists
should
be
well
aware
of
this
entity
and
warn
the
parents
about
its
possibilities
.
Use
of
immunomodulators
or
prolonged
anti-
inflammatory
therapy
may
be
considered
to
prevent
its
occurrence
.
