description PURPOSE: To report a novel management technique using pericardial patch graft for severe corneal wound burn following phacoemulsification of dense cataract with shallow anterior chamber (AC) and overfilled AC with viscoelastic. METHODS: Case report. RESULTS: A 46-year-old patient with a shallow AC and dense cataract, who underwent phacoemulsification using “soft shell” technique had severe wound burn which was refractory to conventional management with corneal suturing and placing bandage contact lens. He underwent Tutoplast(®) (Innovative Ophthalmic Products, Inc., Costa Mesa, CA, USA) pericardium patch graft, which fully resorbed and resolved the wound leak over 6 weeks, leaving a well-healed corneal wound. CONCLUSION: Pericardium patch graft is a safe and effective technique to manage extensive phaco wound burn which is refractory to conventional management options.
