description Purpose To evaluate the efficacy and safety of combined bevacizumab–mitomycin c (MMC) in recurrent cases of pediatric glaucoma. Methods A prospective non-masked controlled study that included bilateral cases of 12 patients (24 eyes) with recurrent (had previous glaucoma surgery before) pediatric glaucoma. One eye in each patient (12 eyes) was assigned to trabeculectomy operation with combined application of MMC (0.4 mg/ml for 3 min) under and around the scleral flap before trabeculectomy and bevacizumab (avastin) (2.5 mg in 0.2 ml) injected subconjunctivally around the bleb after completing the surgery (group I). The other eye of each patient (12 eyes) was assigned to trabeculectomy operation with application of MMC (0.4 mg/ml for 3 min) only (group II). The mean follow-up period was 13±1 months. Results The mean age was 2.16±1.5 (range 7 months to 4.1 years). No significant difference in preoperative intraoperative pressure (IOP) was observed between the groups ( P >0.05). Recurrent primary congenital glaucoma represents 66.7% of the cases. Other cases included were recurrent aphakic and pseudophakic glaucoma 25% and recurrent post uveitic glaucoma 8.3%. The mean IOP was 12.1±4.2, 12.6±5.4, and 12.8±5.2 mm Hg in group I at 3, 6, and 12 months, respectively, and was 12.8±5.3, 13.7±6.7 and 15.6±5.9 mm Hg in group II at 3, 6, and 12 months, respectively.

The encountered complications included mild hyphema, which occurred in 8.33% in group 1, wound leakage, which occurred in 8.33% in each group, and shallow anterior chamber (AC), which occurred in 16.7% in each group and was the most common encountered complication in the study. One case of shallow AC in group I led to choroidal effusion (8.33%). One case in group II developed late bleb-related endophthalmitis after 3 months, which resulted in phthisis bulbi (8.33%).
