lüll Review of 1028 bulbar eviscerations and enucleations Changes in aetiology and frequency over a 20-year period Hansen AB; Petersen C; Heegaard S; Prause JUActa Ophthalmol Scand 1999[Jun]; 77 (3): 331-5PURPOSE: To evaluate possible changes in aetiology and frequency of bulbar eviscerations and enucleations. METHODS: A total of 1028 cases from three two-year periods: 1975-76, 1985-86 and 1995-96 collected by the Eye Pathology Institute were reviewed. RESULTS: A significant decrease (p<0.001) in number of enucleations was observed from 358 in 1975-76 to 214 in 1995-96, corresponding to an almost equivalent increase in number of eviscerations from 5 in 1975-76 to 83 in 1995-96. The total number of eye removals decreased significantly (p<0.01) over the last two periods from 368 in 1985-86 to 296 in 1995-96. This was primarily caused by a decrease in the number of glaucoma-related enucleations from 32.7% in 1975-76 to 15.0% in 1995-96. The reduction in number was not fully balanced by the increase in glaucoma-related eviscerations. CONCLUSION: Over the last 20 years there has been a change in choice of operation from enucleation to evisceration.|Adolescent[MESH]|Adult[MESH]|Aged[MESH]|Aged, 80 and over[MESH]|Child[MESH]|Child, Preschool[MESH]|Denmark/epidemiology[MESH]|Eye Diseases/*epidemiology/etiology/surgery[MESH]|Eye Enucleation/*statistics & numerical data[MESH]|Eye Evisceration/*statistics & numerical data[MESH]|Female[MESH]|Follow-Up Studies[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Infant[MESH]|Male[MESH]|Middle Aged[MESH]|Retrospective Studies[MESH]|Treatment Outcome[MESH] |
