Meanings of corneal graft in anglès

Recurrent granular deposits developed in the corneal graft 14 months after surgery.

The FK506 nanospheres may be valuable in suppressing corneal graft rejection.

After completion of the vitrectomy, the Aachen-KPro was replaced by a 7 mm corneal graft.

The most common approach is a corneal graft followed by cataract surgery at a later date.

The corneal graft was clear after surgery in four eyes, and edema was found in three cases.

Background: Gene transfer to a donor cornea ex vivo can modulate corneal graft failure in experimental animal models.

In all eyes, no disease recurrence or corneal graft rejection was observed during the follow-up period, and graft transparency was maintained.

We describe a variant of the triple procedure in which phacoemulsification is followed by a corneal graft using the big-bubble DALK technique.

The outgrowth of corneal epithelial cells onto a polymeric substrate is expected to be the primary event in the epithelialization of a synthetic corneal graft.

Intraocular inflammation (uveitis and uveoretinitis) and corneal graft rejection constitute two of the more common inflammatory conditions affecting the eye leading to considerable morbidity (blindness).

A second option is simultaneous corneal grafts with cataract extraction and intraocular lens implantation.

Corneal grafts remained clear for 1 year in 65% of eyes.

Results: The number of corneal grafts increased by 30.7% from 2002-2006 to 2007-2011 (from 1567 to 2048).

Conclusions: Our findings show that the corneal grafts in the reported SCD pedigree remained clear with no rejection or disease recurrence over the long term.

Methods: The surgical reports of corneal grafts performed during 2002-2011, using tissues supplied by the Eye Bank of Piedmont (Italy), were reviewed retrospectively.
