Simultaneous Vitreoretinal Surgery And Penetrating Keratoplasty Without A Keratoprosthesis Or Endoscopy For Vitreoretinal Disease Associated With Corneal Opacity
CASE REPORTS IN OPHTHALMOLOGY(2020)
摘要
We evaluated the visual outcome of combined penetrating keratoplasty (PKP) and 25G pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) performed without a temporary keratoprosthesis or endoscopy in a patient with vitreoretinal disease complicated by severe corneal opacity. The patient was a 68-year-old woman who had severe corneal opacity and silicone oil in her left eye after several previous intraocular surgeries for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment and proliferative vitreoretinopathy. We successfully performed a combined surgery of conventional PKP followed by 25G PPV without the use of a keratoprosthesis.At 6 months after surgery, visual acuity had not improved, and the density of corneal endothelial cells of the donor cornea had declined from 3,205 to 1,969 cells/mm(2). However, corneal transparency remained good, and additional surgery for vitreoretinal disease was not necessary. The combined surgical procedure designed to minimize the number of open-sky steps and to limit vitreoretinal complications thus proved to be safe and achieved stable corneal clarity in a patient with vitreoretinal disease and severe corneal opacity.
