Diagnostic and Therapeutic Approach in a Case of Severe Post-Traumatic Hyphema with Subtotal Iridodialysis

Purpose: To report our diagnostic ultrasound-based approach and surgical strategy in a case of severe blunt trauma with complete hyphema, 270° iris disinsertion, and traumatic subluxated cataract. Case Report: A 70-year-old male was referred to our hospital for a blunt trauma in his right eye. A complete examination revealed visual acuity consisting in light perception, a complete hyphema, and an intraocular pressure of 45 mm Hg with moderate pain. Our diagnostic approached was ultrasound based with B-scan examination showing some vitreous hemorrhage and ultrasound biomicroscopy showing a large iris disinsertion of 270° with the iris entirely dislocated in the inferior sector of the anterior chamber. The patient was hospitalized and a systemic and topical treatment was started to lower intraocular pressure. Our surgery consisted in a single-step approach with removal of traumatic cataract with scleral fixation of an intraocular lens and iridoplasty. Conclusion: In our patient, the single-step surgery, supported by anterior and posterior ultrasound imaging, achieved a satisfactory anatomical and functional outcome.
