[Suitability of newborn donor corneal graft in penetrating keratoplasty].
OBJECTIVE The lower recommended age of the donor cornea is a controversial matter. Although newborn corneas have a high endothelial cell density, there are anatomical, refractive (myopic shift) and postoperative problems. Two cases are analyzed; one had an atypical refractive result and the other an unexpectedly severe immune response. We also review the use of pediatric donor corneas in penetr...
متن کاملDonor organ cultured corneal tissue selection before penetrating keratoplasty.
AIMS Donor organ cultured corneal tissue selection before penetrating keratoplasty is carried out by taking into account different variables. The objective was to identify preoperative variables which are significantly and independently associated with transplant outcome and should effectively be taken into account before transplantation. METHODS 231 consecutive penetrating keratoplasties wer...
متن کاملDiffractive Intraocular Lens Implantation with cataract surgery following penetrating keratoplasty
Several reports have shown that penetrating keratoplasty (PKP) is a safe and effective technique for corneal transplant and provides good visual outcomes1-3. However, such as Rathi et al.4 reported in a retrospective study, the incidence for cataract formation is high. In this study 24.45% of patients developed cataract within the first years of surgery, being the excessive use of steroids the ...
متن کاملCorneal trephining for penetrating keratoplasty.
MANY complications following corneal grafting procedures may be attributed to the technical and biological problems associated with this type of surgery. It is generally agreed that accurate apposition of the graft to the margin of the incision in the recipient cornea is of the greatest importance. Manual trephining for penetrating keratoplasty frequently results in badly cut grafts, and for th...
متن کاملPenetrating keratoplasty for pseudophakic corneal oedema.
AIMS The study was designed to investigate the results of penetrating keratoplasty (PK) for pseudophakic corneal oedema (PCO). METHODS Retrospective analysis of 80 consecutive patients (82 eyes) who underwent PK for PCO between the years 1980-1992 with a minimum follow up of 12 months. RESULTS PKs for PCO have accounted for as many as 20% of all grafts performed in the hospital in recent ye...
