RESUMO
Objective: To report a case of acquired anterior staphyloma after trauma and its first surgical management. Methods: This is a case report of a 17-year-old man who had a history of trauma by insect on the right eye, without a previous history of eye conditions, and evolved with local pain and low visual acuity. The ophthalmological exam showed light perception visual acuity in right eye and 1,0 in left eye, anterior staphyloma and impossibility to blink. The first surgical procedure proposed was sclerokeratoplasty and the second one an optical transplantation but, after step one, the patient did not return to the service and missed the follow-up. Results: Sclerokeratoplasty was proposed once the posterior segment and the crystalline were preserved in topical position. The anterior tumor was excised in free-cut and corneal-scleral graft sutured in single points with 10-0 mononylon. Gatifloxacin 0.3% with Prednisolone Acetate 1%, Epitezan® and Atropine 1% were prescribed immediately postoperative. After 60 postoperative days, he maintained the use of Dexamethasone 0.1% and Atropine 1% and the patient had visual acuity of perception of hand movement in the affected eye. Conclusion: Few treatment options are alternatives to evisceration. In this case report, the sclerokeratoplasty was the chosen technique for the initial management. The second step was not possible due to loss of follow-up. Despite the uncomplicated procedure, we need greater compliance by the patient to conclude the treatment.

We describe an unusual case of acquired anterior staphyloma in a patient addicted to crack cocaine. At the beginning of his crack cocaine abuse, he noticed redness and irritation of his eyes. Over the next 4 months, the patient also noticed the onset of decreasing visual acuity in his right eye (OD). Initially, his visual acuity was light perception in OD, and slit-lamp examination revealed a corneal infiltrate with a peripheral perforation and an iris prolapse. The patient was hospitalized to ensure compliance with the prescribed treatment and was advised to undergo therapeutic keratoplasty; however, the patient left the hospital against medical advice and was lost to follow-up for the next 6 months. He returned with complaints of photophobia and the inability to close his right eyelids. At this time, his cornea had developed an anterior staphyloma and required a sclerokeratoplasty. Following surgery, the patient was again lost to follow-up.

RESUMO Descrevemos um raro caso de estafiloma anterior adquirido em um paciente viciado em crack. No início do uso do crack, paciente observou hiperemia e irritação nos seus olhos. Durante os próximos 4 meses, evoluiu com piora progressiva da visão em seu olho direito (OD). Inicialmente, sua visão no OD era de percepção luminosa e ao exame de biomicroscopia observava-se um importante infiltrado corneano com uma perfuração periférica e hérnia de íris. O paciente foi hospitalizado para garantir seu correto tratamento e indicado ceratoplastia terapêutica; no entanto, o paciente abandou o hospital e ficou 6 meses sem acompanhamento. Após esse período, paciente retornou queixando-se de importante fotofobia e inabilidade em ocluir o OD. Neste momento, sua córnea havia desenvolvido um importante estafiloma anterior e necessitou de uma escleroceratoplastia no OD. Após a cirurgia, mais uma vez o paciente abandonou o tratamento e perdeu o seguimento pós-operatório.

En este artículo se presenta un caso reciente de rechazo al aloplante utilizado para escleroplastia meridional. Se refieren las características del cuadro clínico presentado y su tratamiento. Además, se expresan consideraciones basadas en datos estadísticos y hallazgos anatomopatológicos que fundamentan la suspensión de la práctica de esta técnica en el Centro de Microcirugía Ocular
