Comparative analysis of ultrasound and femtolaser-assisted phacoemulsification in patients with primary endothelial Fuchs corneal dystrophy

Офтальмохирургия, 2021
Purpose. To highlight the comparative results of surgical treatment of patients with primary Fuchs’ endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) using the methods of classical ultrasonic phacoemulsification and femtolaser-assisted phacoemulsification of cataract.

Sustained activation of the unfolded protein response induces cell death in Fuchs' endothelial corneal dystrophy [PDF]

, 2017
Purpose: The unfolded protein response (UPR) is believed to play a role in the pathogenesis of Fuchs' endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD). The purpose of this study was to investigate whether unfolded proteins accumulate in the corneal endothelium in ...

Tissue‐level heterogeneity in FECD: Descemet's membrane phenotypes and association with TCF4 CTG18.1 expansion†

The Journal of Pathology, EarlyView.
Abstract Late‐onset Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) is commonly framed as a corneal endothelial disease characterised by guttae accumulation and progressive thickening of Descemet's membrane (DM). However, clinical forms and evolutionary profiles vary widely.

Bilateral corneal edema in an alcoholic male

Taiwan Journal of Ophthalmology, 2021
Pseudophakic bullous keratopathy and Fuchs' endothelial dystrophy are the two most common causes of corneal edema after cataract surgery. We report a 61-year-old alcoholic male with bilateral corneal edema that improved after his alcohol abstinence.

Mini descemet membrane stripping (m-DMES) in patients with Fuchs' endothelial dystrophy: A new method. [PDF]

, 2017
We present two cases with focal corneal edema due to Fuchs' endothelial dystrophy that were successfully treated with mini Descemet membrane stripping (m-DMES) (diameter of 3-4 mm; at the area of preexisting focal corneal edema) without endothelial ...

Astigmatic changes after Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) in decompensated penetrating keratoplasty grafts

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate the surgery‐induced changes of astigmatism after Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) in eyes with failed previous penetrating keratoplasty (PK). Design Retrospective, interventional cohort study based on prospective DMEK database.

Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty combined with secondary sulcus hydrophobic intraocular lens implantation

American Journal of Ophthalmology Case Reports
Purpose: To report a case of combined Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) and secondary sulcus hydrophobic intraocular lens (IOL) implantation for hyperopic correction in a pseudophakic eye with Fuchs’ endothelial corneal dystrophy ...

Genetic risk factors in Finnish patients with Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To study the genetic risk factors of Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) in the Finnish population using hospital‐based and large biobank cohorts. Methods We genotyped a cohort of 107 Finnish patients with FECD for the primary associated genetic risk factor, the TCF4 (CTG)>50 expansion, and studied their clinical phenotype.

Update on the genetics of corneal endothelial dystrophies

Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2022
Corneal endothelial dystrophies are a heterogeneous group of diseases with different modes of inheritance and genetic basis for each dystrophy. The genes associated with these diseases encode transcription factors, structural components of the stroma and

Deformation velocity imaging using optical coherence tomography and its applications to the cornea [PDF]

, 2017
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) can monitor human donor corneas non-invasively during the de-swelling process following storage for corneal transplantation, but currently only resultant thickness as a function of time is extracted.
