Successful Pars Plana Vitrectomy with Zonulo-hyaloidectomy Performed 4 Years after the Onset of Chronic Low-Grade Aqueous Misdirection
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In aqueous misdirection, the interval between diagnosis and surgical intervention is inversely proportional to the success of the surgery. Here, we report a successful outcome of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with irido-zonulo-hyaloidectomy 4 years after the onset of the disease. A 34-year-old female, known to have primary angle closure glaucoma, underwent trabeculectomy with mitomycin C in the right eye for uncontrolled intraocular pressure (IOP). Six weeks after the surgery, the patient presented with a shallow anterior chamber centrally and peripheral iridocorneal touch along with a patent peripheral iridectomy. Ultrasound biomicroscopy showed a shallow AC centrally with peripheral iridocorneal touch, and the ciliary body was rotated forward confirming the diagnosis of aqueous misdirection. The patient refused surgical management and was managed medically, which was unsuccessful. Four years after the diagnosis, the patient underwent PPV with irido-zonulo-hyaloidectomy because of progressive shallowing of the AC and corneal edema. One month postoperatively, visual acuity improved from 20/200 to 20/60, and the AC maintained appropriate depth. In conclusion, PPV with irido-zonulo-hyaloidectomy may result in a complete resolution of a chronic low-grade form of aqueous misdirection.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
