Title: [Morphopathological changes in glaucoma-induced trabecular meshwork].
Abstract: Glaucoma causes trabecular meshwork and Schlemm canal changes, resulting in the obstruction of the aqueous flow at this level.To show the histological changes in the surgically removed trabecular meshwork tissues.Trabecular meshwork fragments were histologically processed for histological diagnosis.29.87% of all patients had ordered structure with high eosinophilia, 20.12% a rare structure with high eosinophilia, 21.34% a voluminous trabecular meshwork with fusiform cells, 21.03% tissue fibrosis and 7.62% had tissue necrosis.Aqueous flow obstruction in trabecular meshwork is produced by the histological changes at this level, found in all tissue specimens removed during surgery.
