- Surgical Management of Corneal Hydrops: Case Series - PMC
Case 2: Slit-lamp photos of a keratoconus patient showed acute hydrops and microcystic edema in the right eye (a) On anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT), Descemet’s membrane (DM) rupture was visible below the area of edema (b)
- Ruptures of Descemets Membrane in Keratoconus - ScienceDirect
Ruptures in Des cemet's membrane are known to occur not only in keratoconus but also in posterior keratoconus, buphthalmos, high myopia and after trauma (birth injury) 1 · 8 The ruptures of Descemet's membrane in the present case are considered a complication of early kera toconus
- Managing Acute Corneal Hydrops in Keratoconus | SpringerLink
Based on biomicroscopic findings, the acute keratoconus cases were classified into three different categories: (1) cases with a small Descemet’s membrane rupture and a small lacuna, (2) cases with small ruptures and a large lacuna, and (3) cases with large ruptures and large lacunae (Fig 5)
- Are Descemet Membrane Ruptures the Root Cause of Corneal . . .
And, we thoroughly agree with the primary point of their letter; namely, that “acute hydrops in keratoconus was a result of a tear in both the Descemet membrane and the pre-Descemet's layer in the background of the abnormal collagen of the corneal stroma in keratoconus ”1 As we learn more about this abnormal collagen structure, it is hoped
- Spontaneous Corneal Clearing after Descemet Membrane Rupture . . .
We present a case of a patient with OI and KG who had a near-total rupture of Descemet’s membrane followed by spontaneous corneal clearing, suggesting extensive migration or auto-transfer of endothelial cells and re-establishment of a new Descemet’s membrane
- Extreme Descemets membrane rupture with hydrops in . . .
We report a case of a giant rupture in Descemet's membrane caused by advanced keratoconus resulting in hydrops We present the clinical observations with histological analysis and highlight the focal changes by environmental scanning electron microscopy images of the Descemet's membrane rupture
- Acute Hydrops After Bowman Layer Transplantation for . . .
Conclusions: Hydrops formation in keratoconic corneas after midstromal BL transplantation may indicate that a break in Descemet membrane is secondary to hydrops development (and not vice versa) With a midstromal BL graft in situ limiting hydrops dimensions, resolution of the hydrops seemed relatively quick with recovery to prehydrops visual
