This paper presents donor and surgical risk factors for PGF in DSAEK cases in Asian eyes.Design: Retrospective case-control study.Participants: All consecutive patients who underwent DSAEK at a tertiary referral teaching hospital from March 2006–December 2008.Methods: Donor details analyzed were: age of donor, cause of donor death, death to harvesting time, donor storage time, distribution distance of tissue, preoperative endothelial cell count. Surgical factors analyzed were: donor diameter, donor thickness, and method of donor insertion. These risk factors in cases of PGF were compared with patients with successful DSAEK as the control group.Main outcome measure: PGF.Results: A total of 124 DSAEK procedures were performed. Six DSAEK procedures (five eyes of five patients; one eye with two failures) resulted in PGF (4.8%). Significant risk factors were found for PGF to include graft insertion using a folding technique (odds ratio [OR], 34.03; 95% confidence interval [CI], 3.75–314.32; P = 0.0017) and a small donor diameter (OR, 39.94; 95% CI, 2.18–732.17; P = 0.013).Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that in Asian eyes with shallow anterior chambers, surgical trauma relating to the technique of donor insertion, and the use of a small donor are major risk factors for PGF following DSAEK.Keywords: DSAEK, PGF, penetrating keratoplastyAng MHtoon HMCajucom-Uy HYTan DMehta JSDove Medical PressarticleOphthalmologyRE1-994ENClinical Ophthalmology, Vol 2011, Iss default, Pp 1503-1508 (2011) |
