Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty with a stromal rim (DMEK-S).
AIM To describe a novel technique for the preparation and transplantation of posterior corneal lamellae consisting of endothelium and bare Descemet membrane with a stromal supporting rim. METHODS Posterior lamellar discs for Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty with a stromal rim (DMEK-S) were prepared manually immediately before surgery using the big bubble technique. The retrospective...
متن کامل[Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK): two-year results].
PURPOSE To report the two-year results of Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) for managing corneal endothelial disorders. METHODS Non-randomized prospective clinical trial. A DMEK was performed in ten patients with Fuchs' endothelial dystrophy or bullous keratopathy. A 3.5 mm clear corneal incision was made and "under air" DM was stripped off from the posterior stroma. A 9.0 mm ...
متن کامل[Visual acuity and endothelial cell density following Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK)].
PURPOSE To assess the clinical outcomes of DMEK in the first series of 120 eyes operated for the treatment of Fuchs endothelial dystrophy in terms of visual acuity and endothelial cell density. METHODS The first 120 consecutive eyes that underwent DMEK (i.e. transplantation of an isolated donor Descemet membrane with its endothelium) were evaluated. In all eyes, the best corrected visual acui...
متن کاملRepeat Descemet Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty
Purpose: To evaluate the outcomes of secondary Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) after failed primary DMEK. Design: Retrospective, interventional case series. Participants: Fifty-five DMEK recipients 42 to 89 years of age. Methods: An initial consecutive series of 1655 DMEK surgeries was reviewed to identify cases of secondary DMEK after failed primary DMEK (n 1⁄4 55). A paired ...
متن کاملComparison of 20% sulfur hexafluoride with air for intraocular tamponade in Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK).
Purpose: To compare the effect of 20% sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) with that of air on graft detachment rates for intraocular tamponade in Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK). Methods: Forty-two eyes of patients who underwent DMEK by a single surgeon (A.S.J.) at Wilmer Eye Institute between January 2012 and 2014 were identified; 21 received air for intraocular tamponade and the nex...
