Banking 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 کاملDescemet 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 کاملFellow eye comparison of corneal thickness and curvature in descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty and descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty.
PURPOSE To compare posterior corneal curvature in the fellow eye of the same patients after Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) and Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK). METHODS This retrospective, case series comparative study included consecutive patients who underwent DSAEK in one eye and DMEK in the fellow eye. Each eye underwent corneal evaluation w...
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 ...
