Nightmare

Show Description +

A patient with a long history of tamsulosin use undergoes cataract surgery so the surgeon places a Malyugin Ring (MST) at the beginning of the case. As the last fragment of nucleus is removed, the phaco tip creates a punch hole in the posterior capsule. To complicate matters further, the vitrectomy tip snags the Malyugin Ring and pulls one of the scrolls of out through the side incision.
