Abstract
Retrospective analysis of the case histories of 243 patients (111 men and 132 women) aged 6 months to 96 years who underwent eye removal operations (22 eviscerations and 221 enucleations) was conducted. In the structure of clinical indications for enucleation and evisceration of the eye dominated severe pyo-inflammatory processes (infectious ulcer with corneal perforation, endophthalmitis, panophthalmitis, chronic sluggish uveitis with the threat of sympathetic ophthalmia) – 46.5 %. The percentage of malignant neoplasm (melanoma and retinoblastoma) is 27.9 %. Painful absolute glaucoma was the cause of enucleation in 18.9 %, severe eye injury in 6.5 % of patients. Radical surgeries were more often performed in women of the older age group with inflammatory pathology and oncopathology, men were more often operated on for painful absolute glaucoma and eye injury. Keywords: еnucleation; еvisceration; аnophthalmia
