CRD SUMMARY:

The authors concluded that compared to trabeculectomy with 5-fluorouracil, trabeculectomy with mitomycin C was associated with higher rates of complete and qualified surgical success and was not associated with increased incidences of postoperative complications. Given the small evidence base and uncertainties regarding the robustness of the findings, the authors’ conclusions appear overly strong.
