Outcomes of Simple Limbal Epithelial Transplantation Without Amniotic Membrane Grafting in Unilateral Limbal Stem Cell Deficiency: A Case Series of 6 Patients.
Purpose: This study describes the technique of simple limbal epithelial transplantation (SLET) without amniotic membrane grafting (AMG) in limbal stem cell deficiency (LSCD).
Methods: Retrospective, interventional case series of 6 patients who underwent SLET without AMG were included. The procedure followed the standard technique, involving limbal biopsy from the healthy eye, resection of symblephera, and pannus dissection in the affected eye. Following host bed preparation, limbal explants were placed on the bare cornea and secured with fibrin glue. A large-diameter bandage contact lens was applied post surgery. No amniotic membrane was used. Preoperative data, including age, gender, cause of LSCD, best-corrected visual acuity, and previous ocular surgeries, were recorded. Postoperative clinical information, such as the duration of follow-up and recurrence of LSCD, best-corrected visual acuity, and other ocular examination findings, was recorded in an excel sheet.
Results: Preoperatively, 2 patients had total LSCD (secondary to a firecracker injury and excision biopsy for ocular surface squamous neoplasia). 4 patients had partial LSCD (3 chemical injuries, 1 firecracker injury). The mean age of participants was 30.67 ± 15.91 years, with a mean follow-up duration of 9.33 ± 8.04 months. Intraoperatively, all patients exhibited a smooth corneal surface after pannus removal. Postoperatively, all limbal explants remained securely attached, with complete corneal epithelialization achieved within 2 to 3 weeks. The ocular surface remained stable throughout, and no recurrence of LSCD was observed in any patient. No loss of explants was seen.
Conclusions: The present series suggests that AMG may not be a necessary step for performing SLET.
