Descemet Stripping Endothelial Keratoplasty: Ten-Year Endothelial Cell Loss Compared with Penetrating Keratoplasty

To assess endothelial cell density (ECD) and model 10-year cell loss after Descemet stripping endothelial keratoplasty (DSEK), and to compare with results after penetrating keratoplasty (PK) performed for the same indications in the Cornea Donor Study (CDS). Retrospective, longitudinal study. Five h...

Zusammenfassung:To assess endothelial cell density (ECD) and model 10-year cell loss after Descemet stripping endothelial keratoplasty (DSEK), and to compare with results after penetrating keratoplasty (PK) performed for the same indications in the Cornea Donor Study (CDS). Retrospective, longitudinal study. Five hundred ninety DSEK recipients, 21 to 96 years of age, treated for Fuchs' dystrophy (n = 498; 84%), pseudophakic or aphakic corneal edema (n = 89; 15%), or other endothelial dysfunction (n = 3;
