Congenital glaucoma secondary to anterior segment malformation is a rare pathology. The purpose of our study is to analyze the epidemiological and clinical aspects of children with secondary congenital glaucoma and to evaluate the therapeutic results of these patients. Over a period of 5 years, we reported ten eyes from six childrens who were treated all of them by trabeculectomy with mitomycin by the same operator. The middle age was 3,8 mounths with a sex ratio around 0,5 males per females. Bilateral glaucoma was found in 66% of cases. The average initial intra-ocular pressure was 22,5 mmHg, the average follow-up was 24mounths with a total success of 23% and partial success of 40%. The prognosis was worse for dysgenesic secondary glaucoma.
