Donor Tissue Preparation for Bowman Layer Transplantation
Cornea, 2016To describe and compare 2 preparation techniques for Bowman layer (BL) grafts for use in BL transplantation.A retrospective evaluation of the 2 methods for preparing BL grafts was performed, that is, BL graft preparation from donor globes not eligible for penetrating keratoplasty or endothelial keratoplasty (technique I, n = 36) and BL graft ...

Contamination of Corneal Tissue From Infected Donors [PDF]
Archives of Ophthalmology, 1985 Thirty-two corneas with scleral rims were cultured from the eyes of 17 cadavers that harbored systemic infection at the time of death. Twelve (71%) of 17 cadavers demonstrated corneal contamination from one or both corneas. Eleven (92%) of 12 donors with positive postmortem blood cultures had positive corneal cultures from at least one eye.

The research potential of tissue from a cadaveric donor
Cell and Tissue Banking, 2002The purpose of this case report is to illustrate the research potential of the tissue obtained from a single donor referred to the Peterborough Hospitals NHS Trust (PHNHST) Research Tissue Bank. Tissue retrieval was done 19 hours after death and 453 tissue units processed on site were despatched to 20 mainly commercial client research organisations.

Donations by living donors include bone, cord blood, amniotic membrane, ophthalmic limbal stem cells and heart valves. The latter may include heart lung block recipients who then donate their hearts. Allograft haemopoietic stem cell donors of bone marrow and peripheral blood stem cells are also clearly living donors but are not dealt with in this ...

Donor Selection, Retrieval and Preparation of Donor Tissue
2009Corneal transplantation safety is widely dependent on clinical donor selection. Donor-to-host transmission of rabies and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease is well established, and it is lethal for the recipient. Taking into consideration this latter figure, contraindications to ocular tissue transplantation include not only rabies, contact with rabies virus ...

Preparing donor tissue for DSEK
Acta Ophthalmologica, 2013AbstractDonor tissue preparation remains a critical step in endothelial keratoplasty technique. Since its introduction in 2008 the use of pre‐cut grafts for Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK) has become increasingly popular.

Donor Care before Pancreatic Tissue Transplantation
Progress in Transplantation, 2005Publications are reviewed to identify factors related to donor care that may optimize the function of pancreatic tissue (whole or segmental organ or islet cells) after transplantation. Short cold ischemia time, avoidance of hypotension, and treatment of donor hyperglycemia appear to be beneficial, although additional properly designed studies are ...

Evaluation of Prior Photorefractive Keratectomy in Donor Tissue
Cornea, 1999To describe a case in which an eye donor had prior bilateral photorefractive keratectomies and to elucidate possible methods of evaluation and screening of donor tissue.Case report. A 62-year-old eye donor was reported to have received radial keratotomy before his death.

Screening the Tissue Donor for Infectious Agents
2021Like all substances of human origin, tissues are capable of transmitting infectious agents from donor to recipient. The screening of tissue donors for blood-borne infectious agents helps minimise this risk. To ensure the reliability and accuracy of screening a number of critical elements need to be considered.
