Endothelial keratoplasty (EK) is a new surgical method in treatment of corneal endothelial keratopathy, which retains healthy portions of a patient's cornea while replacing diseased endothelium with healthy donor tissue. In the past decade EK has been used increasingly and has shown better results over standard penetrating keratoplasty.

Endothelial keratoplasty versus penetrating keratoplasty for Fuchs endothelial dystrophy
2011Fuchs endothelial dystrophy (FED), first described by Ernst Fuchsis in 1910, is a condition in which there is premature degeneration of corneal endothelial cells. When the number of endothelial cells is reduced to a significant degree fluid begins to accumulate within the cornea.

Endothelial keratoplasty – a review
Clinical & Experimental Ophthalmology, 2010AbstractFrom its inception over a century ago, penetrating keratoplasty grew to become the most common and most successful form of solid tissue transplantation. Yet clinicians have long recognized the limitations of full‐thickness corneal transplants, including prolonged visual rehabilitation, unpredictable refractive changes, susceptibility to ocular ...

Endothelial keratoplasty in children
Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2014Descemet stripping endothelial keratoplasty has superseded penetrating keratoplasty (PKP) in adults as the procedure of choice for treating endothelial dysfunction, but endothelial keratoplasty despite the multitude of advantages has undergone a much slower adoption in pediatric patients.

Descemet's stripping endothelial keratoplasty
Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2007Descemet's stripping endothelial keratoplasty (DSEK) is rapidly becoming the preferred treatment for corneal endothelial dysfunction. Familiarity with recent advances in techniques and instrumentation can help reduce the initially steep learning curve and incidence of complications.DSEK produces excellent visual outcomes with minimal change in corneal ...

Evolution of Endothelial Keratoplasty
Cornea, 2013Endothelial keratoplasty has evolved into a popular alternative to penetrating keratoplasty (PK) for the treatment of endothelial dysfunction. Although the earliest iterations were challenging and were not widely adopted, the iteration known as Descemet stripping endothelial keratoplasty (DSEK) has gained widespread acceptance.

To compare the long-term graft survival outcomes and complications of patients who underwent Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK), Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK), and penetrating keratoplasty (PK) for Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) and bullous keratopathy (BK).Retrospective comparative cohort ...
