Successful treatment of glaucoma in Sturge–Weber syndrome using PreserFlo™ microshunt with intraluminal stenting: a case report

Herein, we successfully executed PFM insertion with intraluminal stenting in a patient with SWS, resulting in effective IOP reduction without any serious postoperative complications. These findings suggest that PFM insertion with stenting could be a viable treatment option for glaucoma associated with SWS.
