SLC4A11 mutations in Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy [PDF]

Human Molecular Genetics, 2007
The endothelial (posterior) corneal dystrophies, which result from primary endothelial dysfunction, include Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD), posterior polymorphous corneal dystrophy (PPCD) and congenital hereditary endothelial dystrophy (CHED).

Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Mitophagy in Fuchs Endothelial Corneal Dystrophy [PDF]

Cells, 2021
Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) is a genetically complex, heterogenous, age-related degenerative disease of corneal endothelial cells (CEnCs), occurring in the fifth decade of life with a higher incidence in females. It is characterized by extracellular matrix (ECM) protein deposition called corneal guttae, causing light glare and visual ...

Transient peripheral edema following displaced corneal graft after descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK): case presentation

BMC Ophthalmology, 2011
Background Descemet's Stripping with Automated Endothelial Keratoplasty (DSAEK) is constantly gaining popularity in the management of endothelial dysfunctions such as bullous keratopathy or Fuchs' dystrophy.

Outcome of Two Corneal Collagen Crosslinking Methods in Bullous Keratopathy due to Fuchs’ Endothelial Dystrophy

Case Reports in Medicine, 2014
Four eyes of 2 patients with corneal edema due to Fuchs’ endothelial dystrophy were treated with CXL using the standard protocol. Since no improvement in visual acuity, corneal clarity, thickness, or pain sensation was evident in any eye at month 12, 2 ...

Cataract surgery in patients with Fuchs’ dystrophy and corneal decompensation indicated for Descemet's membrane endothelial keratoplasty

Scientific Reports, 2022
The availability of corneal donor tissue is limited in most developing countries. This study evaluated whether patients with coexisting cataract and Fuchs’ dystrophy with corneal decompensation awaiting Descemet’s membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK)

Dataset on transcriptome profiling of corneal endothelium from patients with Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy

Data in Brief, 2019
Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) is a bilateral inherited eye disease with advanced forms only treatable by corneal transplantation. The pathogenesis of FECD has not been worked out yet, however, trinucleotide repeat polymorphism CTG18.1 in the

Fuchs Endothelial Corneal Dystrophy in Patients With Myotonic Dystrophy [PDF]

Cornea, 2014
The aim was to report 4 cases of Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) in patients with an established diagnosis of myotonic dystrophy (DM) and suggest a mechanism for their association based on the known molecular genetics and potential pathophysiological parallels of DM and FECD.We reviewed all available medical records and pathology slides for ...

Corneal clearance and central endothelial cell repopulation despite graft detachment after Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty

GMS Ophthalmology Cases, 2019
Objective: Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) is the gold standard procedure for treatment of primary corneal endothelial disorders. Graft detachment is a frequent complication of DMEK, which often requires re-operation or re-bubbling ...
