Comi et al (2005):• Found altered fibronectin expression in
fibroblasts taken from port wine stains and brain compared to normal tissue from same subjects
• Fibronectin has effects on angiogenesis, vessel remodeling, and vessel innervation density
• No known genetic abnormality, possibly a somatic mutation

Sturge-Weber Glaucoma
• Glaucoma in 30-70%, most common with involvement of upper lid
• Congenital (60%), childhood (30%)
• Later onset of sx usually between age 8-20
• May present with photophobia, epiphora, blepharospasm, Haab’s striae, clouding of cornea, buphthalmos, amblyopia
• Retinal and choroidal detachments
![Page 19: GRAND ROUNDS](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051821/56815750550346895dc4f425/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Pathophysiology
In 1973, Weiss proposed the following:
• Congenital cases caused by abnormal angles and increased episcleral venous pressure
• Childhood/adulthood cases caused by increased episcleral venous pressure only
• Elevated IOP directly related to decreased aqueous outflow and/or elevated EVP

Angle Abnormalities
• Scleral spur poorly developed • Thickening of uveal and trabecular
meshwork• Displacement of iris root anteriorly • Attachment of ciliary muscle directly to TM• Neovascularization or fibrosis of the
juxtacanalicular region
![Page 21: GRAND ROUNDS](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051821/56815750550346895dc4f425/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
![Page 22: GRAND ROUNDS](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051821/56815750550346895dc4f425/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Aqueous outflow • Aqueous drains from the anterior chamber
through two routes: the conventional route (TM to SC) and uveoscleral outflow
• Hemangiomas upstream cause ↑ blood flow and pressure leading to elevated EVP
![Page 23: GRAND ROUNDS](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051821/56815750550346895dc4f425/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Episcleral venous pressure
• Normal EVP = 9 +/- 1.5 mmHg
• SC fills with blood when EVP>IOP (IOP is usually 5-6 mmHg higher)
• AV shunts
• Thyroid orbitopathy, artifact, body position or idiopathic
• Ocular hypotony
![Page 24: GRAND ROUNDS](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051821/56815750550346895dc4f425/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Treatment
• Resistant, may need repeat surgery
• Congenital cases: surgical; initial or repeated goniotomy/trabeculotomy, if ineffective, filtration surgery, shunt
• Later-onset: medical tx first, then trabeculectomy with MMC, shunt
• Diode cyclophotocoagulation last resort
![Page 25: GRAND ROUNDS](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051821/56815750550346895dc4f425/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Complications• Sudden hypotony can cause large choroidal
effusion or expulsive hemorrhage
• Prophylactic posterior sclerotomy, viscoelastic to AC or tight scleral flap sutures
• Increased risk for anesthesia complications including intracerebral bleed and DIC

trabeculectomy without posterior sclerotomy performed by one surgeon
• No intra-op complications• Post-op one pt developed shallow AC with

Agarwal et al (1993):
• Retrospective study• 16 pts (19 eyes) with SWS glaucoma• Primary combined trabeculotomy-trabeculectomy
performed in 18 eyes; repeat surgery in three eyes• After average f/u of 42 mo, IOP was ≤ 22 mmHg in
11 eyes (61.1%)• Intra-op complications: hyphema in four eyes
(22.2%), vitreous loss in three eyes (16.7%)• Post-op complications: choroidal detachment in
three eyes (16.7%); vitreous hemorrhage in one (5.6%)

• Pre-existing conditions/interventions can be confused for acute findings in the trauma setting
• Certain conditions place pts at risk for complications of surgery and anesthesia
