Optimizing the Swelling Reduction Time of Organ Cultured Corneas Wolf A., Neubauer A. S., Priglinger S., Kampik A., Welge-Lüßen U.,
Introduction: While organculture offers several advantages over cold storage, deswelling is critical to ensure successful transplantation. Corneal thickness similar to the recipients' of approximately 550µm is required. On the other hand deswelling in medium containing Dextran decreases endothelial cell counts and Dextran is absorbed and stored in keratinozytes during deswelling process, thus damaging the organ. Therefore aim of this study was to investigate the minimal deswelling time necessary for a sufficient corneal thickness. |
