Descemet 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 کاملManagement of angle-supported intraocular lens and iridectomy in Descemet-stripping endothelial keratoplasty.
PROBLEM Effective tamponade of a Descemet-stripping endothelial keratoplasty graft with a gas bubble requires that there is no route for the bubble to escape into the posterior chamber. SOLUTION Exchange the angle-supported anterior-chamber intraocular lens (IOL) for an iris-enclaved Artisan IOL and position the IOL haptics over the peripheral iridectomy to occlude it to the extent that no ga...
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 کاملPerformance of electrophysiologic study in an asymptomatic patient with type 2 intermittent Brugada syndrome: To do or not to do?
Background: Brugada syndrome (BrS) is an inherited channelopathy, which is associated with sudden cardiac death due to rapid polymorphic VT or VF. There is no definite consensus regarding the management of asymptomatic patients. Some experts advocate close follow-up; others propose the programmed stimulation for risk stratification. We aimed to evaluate the benefit of complete atrial and ventri...
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...
