Immunohistochemical Evidence of Heterogeneity in Macular Corneal Dystrophy

American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1988
We used the avidin-biotin complex immunoperoxidase technique to test the reactivity of the abnormal corneal accumulations with five different monoclonal antibodies that recognize specific determinants on keratan sulfate. Eighty-eight corneas from 67 patients with macular corneal dystrophy were immunolabeled with the antibodies.

Corneal Proteoglycan Biosynthesis and Macular Corneal Dystrophy

1985
Proteoglycans are constitutive components of all connective tissues. They consist of a protein core containing covalently attached glycosaminoglycan and oligosaccharide side chains. Antibodies have been prepared against proteoglycans isolated from a variety of tissues including cornea (Hassell et al, 1982), bone (Fisher e t al, 1983), basement membrane

Characterization of In Vivo Biomechanical Properties in Macular Corneal Dystrophy

American Journal of Ophthalmology, 2020
To measure and compare corneal biomechanics in patients with macular corneal dystrophy (MCD), versus those who underwent penetrating keratoplasty (PK) for MCD, versus normal subjects.Cross-sectional study.This study enrolled 24 eyes with MCD, 25 eyes that underwent PK in patients with preoperative diagnosis of MCD, and 28 normal eyes.

Amyloid in Corneal Dystrophies

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1968
Lattice dystrophy of the cornea can be differentiated histologically from granular and macular dystrophies by the use of those stains that are employed in the histologic detection of amyloid. Only the stromal lesions of lattice dystrophy give consistently positive reactions for amyloid.

Scheie Syndrome and Macular Corneal Dystrophy

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1971
In the first electron microscope study of tissue from a patient with mucopolysaccharidosis type V (Scheie syndrome), multiple vacuolations were seen in fibroblasts from conjunctiva and skin and in conjunctival epithelial cells. Inclusions were single membrane-limited, contained a granulofibrillar material, and were associated with Golgi areas.

Biochemical and Histological Analysis of 'Recurrent' Macular Corneal Dystrophy

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1982
A patient with macular corneal dystrophy who had a successful 6-mm corneal transplant 23 years ago underwent a second keratoplasty for marked irregular astigmatism. The excised button, which contained the original graft and a rim of host cornea, was divided into several portions.

Recurrence of Macular Corneal Dystrophy after Lamellar Keratoplasty

American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1977
A 20-year-old man required bilateral lamellar keratoplasties for macular corneal dystrophy. Histochemical proof of macular corneal dystrophy was demonstrated in both of the excised lamellar corneal buttons. Eleven years later, the patient underwent a penetrating kiratoplasty in his left eye.

Phototherapeutic keratectomy for macular corneal dystrophy.

Journal of refractive surgery (Thorofare, N.J. : 1995), 1999
To report a case of early intervention with phototherapeutic keratectomy for treatment of macular corneal dystrophy.We report a 21-year-old Saudi male with early macular corneal dystrophy, recurrent erosions, and decreased visual acuity, who underwent phototherapeutic keratectomy in the right eye and penetrating keratoplasty in the left eye with more ...
