PURPOSE: To describe a rare complication of phacoemulsification (Phaco) cataract extraction.
OBSERVATIONS: A phaco tip fracture occurred during the sculpting of the nucleus in a cataract extraction surgery of a 60-year-old woman. The surgeon introduced the second instrument through the side port to retrieve the broken portion of the tip while maintaining it inside the sleeve.
CONCLUSIONS AND IMPROTANCE: Phaco tip fracture is a rare but serious complication that all cataract surgeons should be able to manage safely. Main risk factors for phaco tip fractures are: Aspiration Bypass System (ABS) phaco tip design and sterilization and reuse of instruments. A step by step plan of action was described in detail for a surgeon to manage a phaco tip fracture which mainly consists of removing the fractured phaco tip while it is still inside the sleeve to prevent any touch between the sharp broken edge of the tip and any intraocular component.
