Intraoperative sub-tenon injection increases optic nerve length transection during enucleation.

摘要
PURPOSE:To determine the effect of sub-Tenon injection on the length of optic nerve resected during enucleation.
METHODS:Case-control laboratory study on 22 orbits of 11 unpreserved, fresh-frozen human cadavers. Each cadaver underwent a conventional enucleation technique on one side and an otherwise identical technique on the contralateral side that included sub-Tenon injection of 2.5 ml normal saline in each oblique quadrant. Resected optic nerve lengths were measured and compared using Student t tests.
RESULTS:The mean optic nerve length was 15.2 mm (range, 5.0-21.0 mm) in the sub-Tenon injection group and 11.3 mm (range, 5.0-19.0 mm) in control group (p = 0.015).
CONCLUSIONS:Sub-Tenon injection during enucleation allows for significantly longer optic nerve resection lengths in unpreserved, fresh-frozen human cadavers.
