Abstract
This clinical case report describes a single case of a progressively enlarging anterior chamber cyst arising in a patient with prior cataract surgery. We detail findings of a large implantation cyst within the anterior chamber, confirmed on ultrasound biomicroscopy. The patient was successfully treated with needle aspiration and injection of 5-fluorouracil without recurrence at 5 months. Anterior chamber cysts are a rare side effect of cataract surgery caused by intrusion of epithelial cells during surgery. Patients may present with a progressively enlarging mass requiring surgical intervention. Aspiration and injection of a cytodestructive chemical agent is one conservative approach in the management of an implantation cyst, with our patient exhibiting favorable visual outcomes.
