Toxic Anterior Segment Syndrome In this webinar we will discuss factors which attribute to toxic anterior segment syndrome (tass), strategies in the prevention of developing tass, and methods for investigating an outbreak. Toxic anterior segment syndrome (tass) is an acute, sterile, postoperative inflammatory reaction of the anterior segment without vitreous involvement, following an uncomplicated and uneventful ocular surgery, having broad and multiple etiologies. Conclusion: tass is a preventable complication of anterior segment surgery. recognition of tass, differentiating it from endophthalmitis, and starting treatment immediately is important. Toxic anterior segment syndrome (tass) is a rare and devastating complication of intraocular surgery. tass is an acute sterile anterior chamber inflammatory reaction that usually develops 12 48 hours after anterior segment surgery.

We review the literature on toxic anterior segment syndrome, emphasizing its etiology, pathophysiology, and clinical and surgical management, as well as prognosis and sequelae. Most patients with toxic anterior segment syndrome will develop symptoms within 12 to 24 hours of the surgery. common findings on anterior segment slit lamp examination include increased cell and flare with associated fibrin and possible hypopyon formation. Toxic anterior segment syndrome (tass) is an acute, sterile postoperative inflammatory reaction of the anterior segment tissues in response to toxic substances. B scan od should be performed to evaluate the posterior segment, given that the fundus cannot be visualized through such severe corneal edema. b scan shows that the retina is attached and the vitreous is relatively clear.
