Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty using cultured corneal endothelial cells in a rabbit model.
OBJECTIVE To investigate the feasibility of Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK) using cultured human corneal endothelial cells (HCECs) in an animal model. METHODS Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty grafts were produced by seeding cultured HCEC suspensions onto human corneal stromal discs. Three insertion techniques were assessed in an ex vivo model...
متن کاملProspects for Descemet Stripping Automated Endothelial Keratoplasty Using Cultured Human Corneal Endothelial Cells
Study background: Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK) allows selective replacement of the diseased corneal endothelium. However, DSAEK requires a donor cornea and the worldwide shortage of corneas limits its application. In this review, we introduce our recent work on tissue engineering for DSAEK using cultured human corneal endothelial cells (HCEC) and recently publis...
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...
