Histocompatibility and Corneal Transplantation
2002HLA typing and matching have been poorly implemented in corneal transplantation, mainly because of inconclusive or contradictory analytical results. Consequently, we studied the immune response of corneal transplant recipients to HLA histoincompatibilities in a large homogeneous study.All corneal transplantations were performed by a single surgeon in a

Lamellar Corneal Transplantation
Survey of Ophthalmology, 2012Penetrating keratoplasty (PK) has been the gold standard for the surgical treatment of most corneal pathologies; lamellar keratoplasty that only replaces the diseased corneal layers has recently evolved as an alternative, however. Innovations in surgical technique and instrumentation provide visual outcomes comparable to PK.

Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2017
Pediatric keratoplasty poses unique challenges in clinical and surgical management. However, successful transplantation can afford a child vision in an otherwise poorly seeing eye. This review will provide an update on recent advances in pediatric keratoplasty.Although children who receive corneal transplants remain at increased risk of rejection ...

Corneal Transplant Allograft Reactions in Unilateral, Double Corneal Transplants
Cornea, 1985In support of the idea that the HLA system plays a major role in corneal graft rejection, we report these two unique cases. Both had two penetrating grafts in the same eye. One was a regular graft and the second a patch graft to repair a perforation in the initial one.

Journal of Perioperative Practice, 2009
Corneal disease is one of the major causes of blindness worldwide. Removal of the damaged cornea and transplant of donated tissue is often the only option available to patients to improve and restore vision. This paper discusses corneal transplant with consideration given to penetrating keratoplasty (PK), a traditional full thickness corneal transplant
