Case report: Two-step lamellar keratoplasty for alkali burns

For patients with ocular surface alkali burns who experience persistent disease progression despite early and mid-stage aggressive interventions, this study is the first to report on the use of a Two-Step LK. This approach takes into account both the "soil" factors that may lead to graft dissolution and the "seed" factors related to recipient stem cell deficiency. The results in preventing graft dissolution and maintaining postoperative corneal function are encouraging.

Abstract

For patients with ocular surface alkali burns who experience persistent disease progression despite early and mid-stage aggressive interventions, this study is the first to report on the use of a Two-Step LK. This approach takes into account both the "soil" factors that may lead to graft dissolution and the "seed" factors related to recipient stem cell deficiency. The results in preventing graft dissolution and maintaining postoperative corneal function are encouraging.
