Aim To describe a novel technique of tube placement in the anterior chamber.Methods In this technique, the extra cut piece of the tube is used to provide a hinge/fulcrum such that the main tube entering the anterior chamber would be angulated posteriorly away from the cornea.Results The tube entering the anterior chamber is angulated posteriorly.Conclusions Using a fulcrum beneath the tube would assist in posterior positioning of the tube and prevent long-term tube endothelial touch.
