JUBERIAS, J.R.; MAQUET, J.A.  y  USSA, F.. Decompression retinopathy with maculopathy after trabeculectomy with mitomycin C. Arch Soc Esp Oftalmol [online]. 2008, vol.83, n.6, pp.373-375. ISSN 0365-6691.

Case report: We present a case of decompression retinopathy with retinal haemorrhages, optic nerve haemorrhages, maculopathy, and decreased visual acuity after trabeculectomy with mitomycin-C. Discussion: Decompression retinopathy is a potential complication after glaucoma surgery but has been rarely reported in the world literature. Although these four characteristics have been described separately, in this patient all four occurred together.

Palabras clave : Glaucoma; decompression retinopathy; haemorrhages; maculopathy; trabeculectomy.
