Spontaneous Reattachment of a Detached Sutured Descemet-Stripping Automated Endothelial Keratoplasty Graft
Abstract Introduction This is a case report of a spontaneous reattachment of Descemet-stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK). This graft was primarily sutured, and 20% sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) was injected into the anterior chamber, followed by graft detachment and spontaneous reattachment, 3 months later. Case Presentation A 78-year-old male presented with DSAEK graft detachment, which was the patient’s second DSAEK (the first also did not adhere). During the second surgery, the DSAEK graft was sutured and 20% SF6 was injected intraoperatively. Graft reattachment occurred without any intervention or repositioning 3 months after the 2nd DSAEK surgery. Conclusion Spontaneous DSEAK late graft reattachment is possible, particularly in the setting of an anchoring suture. In some patients, waiting can be an option that can spare the patient the possible risks of graft repositioning, rebubbling, or repeating the DSAEK. Suturing the DSAEK graft primarily may have served as an anchor to keep the graft approximate and aid in attachment. A graft suture can be considered in the setting of a previously failed DSAEK due to DSAEK graft detachment.
期刊介绍:
This peer-reviewed online-only journal publishes original case reports covering the entire spectrum of ophthalmology, including prevention, diagnosis, treatment, toxicities of therapy, supportive care, quality-of-life, and survivorship issues. The submission of negative results is strongly encouraged. The journal will also accept case reports dealing with the use of novel technologies, both in the arena of diagnosis and treatment. Supplementary material is welcomed. The intent of the journal is to provide clinicians and researchers with a tool to disseminate their personal experiences to a wider public as well as to review interesting cases encountered by colleagues all over the world. Universally used terms can be searched across the entire growing collection of case reports, further facilitating the retrieval of specific information. Following the open access principle, the entire contents can be retrieved at no charge, guaranteeing easy access to this valuable source of anecdotal information at all times.
