Abstract
To report a case of spontaneous fluocinolone acetonide (Retisert) implant dislocation and migration into the anterior chamber.Retrospective case report.One patient with sympathetic ophthalmia uveitis was well controlled by fluocinolone acetonide implants.The fluocinolone acetonide implant spontaneously migrated into the anterior chamber causing corneal edema and anterior chamber reaction. The implant was subsequently successfully removed through a temporal corneal wound.Clinicians should be aware of the spontaneous dislocation and migration of an intact fluocinolone implant as a potential surgical complication, particularly in pseudophakic eyes with iridectomy.
