A Case of Autologous Cultivated Limbal Stem Cell Transplantation
The patient presented herein, is a 29-yearold man with history of unilateral alkaline chemical injury 14 years ago. Upon referral, visual acuity was 20/20 and the examination was unremarkable in the right eye. Vision was hand motions (HM) in his left eye and a small angle exotropia (10-15 Prism Diopters) was evident. Slitlamp examination revealed severe corneal opacification and vascularization...
متن کاملCultivated limbal stem cell transplantation for ocular surface reconstruction
Severe damage to cell repair mechanisms of the limbal region can lead to many disorders such as vascularized conjunctivalization, keratinization, corneal scarring, and corneal opacification, collectively described as limbal stem cell deficiency (LSCD). Limbal stem cell deficiency may occur as a result of depletion of stem cells or destruction of their stromal niche. In such cases, apart from co...

Purpose: To report the early results of transplantation of autologous limbal stem cells cultivated on amniotic membrane (AM) in patients with total unilateral limbal stem cell deficiency (LSCD). Methods: Four eyes of 4 patients with total unilateral LSCD confirmed with impression cytology underwent transplantation of autologous limbal stem cell cultivated on AM. At each follow up visit, a compl...
