Microkeratome-assisted preparation of ultrathin grafts for descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty.
PURPOSE To compare three microkeratome-assisted techniques for the preparation of ultrathin (UT) grafts for Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty. METHODS After dissection with a 300-μm microkeratome head in 40 donor tissues, a second cut was performed with a 130-μm head either after manual stromal hydration (group A, n = 10) or osmotic hydration at the eye bank (group B, n = ...
متن کاملCombined use of a femtosecond laser and a microkeratome in obtaining thin grafts for Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty: an eye bank study.
PURPOSE To evaluate the use of a femtosecond laser combined with a microkeratome in the preparation of posterior corneal disks for Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK). METHODS This experimental study involved ultrathin DSAEK tissue preparation of 22 donor corneas unsuitable for transplantation. The first cut was performed with an Intralase® FS60 laser and the second ...
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 کاملDouble-pass microkeratome technique for ultra-thin graft preparation in Descemet’s stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty
Endothelial keratoplasty is evolving with increased attention placed on the optical qualities of the posterior donor lenticule. In efforts to improve visual outcomes, the effects of the thickness, smoothness, and planar profile are being studied. This paper describes a double-pass microkeratome technique to create ultra-thin (less than 100 μm) Descemet's stripping automated endothelial keratopl...
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...
