Corneal Regeneration by Deep Anterior Lamellar Keratoplasty (DALK) Using Decellularized Corneal Matrix
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the feasibility of DALK using a decellularized corneal matrix obtained by HHP methodology. Porcine corneas were hydrostatically pressurized at 980 MPa at 10°C for 10 minutes to destroy the cells, followed by washing with EGM-2 medium to remove the cell debris. The HHP-treated corneas were stained with H-E to assess the efficacy of decellularization. T...
متن کاملStromal Rejection after Deep Anterior Lamellar Keratoplasty (DALK) - a Retrospective Study
Materials & Methods: Retrospective review of patients who underwent DALK for progressive keratoconus from 2010 to 2013 was done. Patients who completed 2 years of follow up were included. Slit lamp findings, corneal topography and central corneal thickness were analysed.122 eyes of 71 patients were analysed. Uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) and best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) were analysed ...
متن کاملFemtosecond laser-assisted anterior lamellar keratoplasty for the treatment of stromal corneal pathology
BACKGROUND To describe the initial outcomes and safety of anterior lamellar keratoplasty (ALK) assisted by a femtosecond laser for stromal corneal pathology. METHODS A non-comparative case series of 14 eyes (13 patients) with various stromal corneal diseases underwent ALK with a femtosecond laser. Femtosecond laser settings, technique, uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA), best-corrected visual a...
متن کاملLamellar keratoplasty with lyophilized tissue for treatment of corneal scarring.
BACKGROUND A pilot study was carried out in Pakistan to assess the feasibility of the use of lathed freeze-dried corneal tissue in the treatment of corneal scarring. METHOD Six eyes underwent lamellar keratoplasty and were followed up for 18 months. RESULTS Visual improvement was obtained in every eye. In one eye, the procedure was complicated by delayed epithelialization of the graft, but ...
متن کاملMicrokeratome-assisted anterior lamellar keratoplasty.
Microkeratome-assisted anterior lamellar keratoplasty has emerged as a surgical option for conditions affecting the clarity of the outer 200 mum of the cornea. Herein we describe the outcome of a simple procedure in which the excimer laser can be used to augment deep tissue removal after both recipient bed and donor graft are prepared with the microkeratome. Our noncomparative interventional ca...
