Spontaneous glaucoma drainage device extrusion after early postoperative orbital cellulitis – Case report and literature review

A 70-year-old glaucoma patient who underwent Ahmed Glaucoma Valve (AGV) implantation developed orbital cellulitis (OC) 5 days postoperatively. On presentation, the valve was not exposed and no intraocular involvement was noted. After successful treatment of OC with intravenous and oral antibiotics,...

description A 70-year-old glaucoma patient who underwent Ahmed Glaucoma Valve (AGV) implantation developed orbital cellulitis (OC) 5 days postoperatively. On presentation, the valve was not exposed and no intraocular involvement was noted. After successful treatment of OC with intravenous and oral antibiotics, the patient presented to the clinic with the AGV completely extruded from the eye. There are only 10 previous cases of OC reported in the literature following glaucoma drainage device (GDD) implantation and no previous reports of spontaneous AVG extrusion. Close observation and thorough evaluation of the tube and plate positions are warranted to achieve better outcomes.
