Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty
Endothelial keratoplasty is at present the gold standard for surgical treatment of corneal endothelial pathologies not associated with significant corneal scar. Tremendous progress has been made in recent years in improving the technology of endothelial keratoplasty techniques, such as descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK) and descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty. ...
متن کاملDescemet-stripping Automated Endothelial Keratoplasty—A Review
Descemet-stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK) has become the procedure of choice to treat corneal endothelial dysfunction. The technique involves replacing the diseased host endothelium with a graft consisting of a thin layer of posterior stroma, Descemet membrane, and endothelium. In comparison to penetrating keratoplasty (PK), DSAEK confers quicker visual and structural recove...
متن کاملBanking of donor tissues for descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty.
PURPOSE The demands for precut lamellar grafts for Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty rose in our eye bank from 74 in 2007 to 408 in 2010. To meet this expanding requirement, we explored the possibility to preserve these preparations in organ culture. METHODS Organ cultured corneas, stored in a medium containing 6% dextran, were mounted on a Moria artificial anterior chambe...
متن کاملSpontaneous reattachment of dislocated endothelial graft after non-Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty: a case report
BACKGROUND Graft detachment is a complication of non-Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (nDSAEK). We report a case of spontaneous reattachment of an extensively dislocated graft after nDSAEK. CASE PRESENTATION A 54-year-old male underwent penetrating keratoplasty (PKP) for keratoconus in his left eye in 2001. Following graft opacity due to rejection, a second PKP was implem...
متن کاملResults of Femtosecond Laser-Assisted Descemet Stripping Automated Endothelial Keratoplasty
PURPOSE To evaluate femtosecond laser in DSAEK surgery as an improvement to manual DSAEK. SETTINGS Department of Ophthalmology, Cairo University. DESIGN A retrospective observational clinical study. METHODS 20 eyes with SBK and Fuchs' dystrophy underwent a Femto-assisted DSAEK by laser cutting of two matching posterior stromal discs in the recipient and donor corneas and then fitting the ...
