Abstract Late‐onset Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) is the most common primary disease of the corneal endothelium and the leading indication for corneal transplantation in Western countries. It is characterized by progressive accumulation, over two to three decades, of extracellular matrix (ECM) components in Descemet's membrane (DM ...

Triamcinolone Acetonide-Assisted Descemetectomy for Retained Descemet Membrane
We present a case of decreased vision due to the presence of retained Descemet membrane (DM) following Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK) and penetrating keratoplasty (PKP). A 78-year-old male presented postoperatively from PKP

Descemet-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.

ABSTRACT Ophthalmic surgeries pose infection risks. Traditional control methods rely on manual monitoring, creating a need for more precise, data‐driven nursing models. This study evaluated the effectiveness of real‐time data analysis in improving ophthalmic infection prevention and control outcomes.

Descemet’s stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty and penetrating keratoplasty for Fuchs’ endothelial dystrophy [PDF]
Abstract.Purpose: To compare the outcome of Descemet’s stripping endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK) to that of penetrating keratoplasty (PK) in patients with Fuchs’ endothelial dystrophy.Methods: The first 20 patients who underwent DSAEK at the Department of Ophthalmology, Aarhus University Hospital were compared to 20 patients treated with classic PK.

Exploring the histopathological signature of repeat‐mediated Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy
Abstract Purpose To determine the histological differences between Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) cases with and without the most common genetic risk factor, expansion of a CTG repeat (CTG18.1) within the TCF4 gene. Methods Formalin‐fixed paraffin‐embedded corneal tissues were compared retrospectively, and CTG18.1 status was determined from

Cataract surgery after Descemet stripping endothelial keratoplasty
Management of endothelial dysfunction in phakic patients is sometimes a dilemma for corneal surgeons. Phakic patients with visually significant cataract and endothelial dysfunction are preferably managed by performing combined cataract surgery with ...

ABSTRACT The corneal endothelium is a monolayer of specialized cells that maintains stromal deturgescence and transparency, functions essential for vision. Despite its clinical importance, the developmental origins and homeostatic programs of the endothelium remain poorly understood, in part due to the lack of a lineage‐specific genetic driver.

iPSC‐derived corneal endothelial cells purified via a novel wash‐out method show high functional fidelity, resemble primary CECs, and restore corneal clarity in vivo, offering a scalable alternative to donor transplantation. ABSTRACT Corneal endothelial failure can cause blindness, with transplantation as the only treatment.
