State-of-the-art book provides hands-on guidance on the latest
endothelial keratoplasty techniques A significant number of eye
disorders result from deficiencies in the endothelial layer of the
cornea. Endothelial keratoplasty (EK) helps spare patients from
months of refractive adjustments, lengthy recovery, complications,
and poor outcomes associated with full-thickness penetrating
keratoplasty. This newer methodology is based on more selective
transplantation of cells and is less invasive, resulting in quicker
recovery and more efficacious outcomes. Contributors are
world-renowned pioneers who are front and center in implementing
innovative, sight-restoring techniques that continue to change the
ophthalmic surgery landscape. In the first section, a solid
foundation is laid with discussion of anatomy, the history of EK,
clinical aspects of endothelial cell dysfunction, and
clinico-pathology. Subsequent sections cover surgical procedures,
special topics, surgical outcomes, complications, and future
trends. Readers will gain invaluable insights from clinical pearls
throughout the book, gleaned from hands-on experience by leading
experts in the field of ocular surgery. Key Features: A large
compendium of high-quality videos demonstrate cutting-edge
approaches Richly illustrated with 400 images that further
delineate anatomy and techniques Anterior segment surgery advances
including Descemet's stripping endothelial keratoplasty (DSEK),
predescemet's endothelial keratoplasty (PDEK), ultrathin DSEK,
Descemet's membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK), and trocar
anterior chamber maintainer Treatment of conditions such as
pseudophakic bullous keratopathy and Fuchs' dystrophy Management of
complicated cases including glued IOL, cataract extraction &
IOL implantation, glaucoma, failed grafts, and scarred corneas This
book is a stellar resource on the surgical management of patients
with corneal disease. It will benefit both trainees and practicing
ophthalmologists - and is a must-have for specialists who perform
corneal surgery.
