Corneal Endothelial Transplantation

Ophthalmology, 1980
Patients with visually significant corneal edema, secondary to endothelial dysfunction, before the development of scaring or vascularization, need only have the corneal endothelium replaced to restore corneal clarity. This fact, plus the lack of consistently available donor material, prompted us to evaluate tissue cultured corneal endothelim (TCCE) as ...

Targeted corneal transplantation

Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2012
Corneal transplantation surgery has moved from an era of conventional penetrating keratoplasty to selective replacement of the diseased corneal layer with complementary healthy donor corneal tissue. Anterior lamellar transplantation surgeries do not involve replacement of corneal endothelium, consequently eliminating the occurrence of endothelial ...

Mouse Corneal Transplantation

2022
Corneal transplantation is the most common form of organ transplantation worldwide. Transplant survival depends on various factors, many of which are not fully understood. Due to the existence of many genetically defined strains, mouse models of corneal transplantation are most commonly used.

Corneal Transplantation and Glaucoma

Seminars in Ophthalmology, 2014
Glaucoma is the leading cause of irreversible vision loss post-keratoplasty and an important cause of graft failure. With newer techniques, such as lamellar, endothelial, and laser-assisted keratoplasty as well as keratoprosthesis gaining popularity, clinicians will need to consider the incidence, risks, evaluation, and management of glaucoma for each ...

Histocompatibility and Corneal Transplantation

2002
HLA 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, 2012
Penetrating 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.

Pediatric corneal transplants

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, 1985
In 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.

Corneal Transplant Surgery

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
