Two-Piece Mushroom Penetrating Keratoplasty With “Pull-Through” Technique to Manage High Vitreous Pressure in Infant Eyes
In infant eyes, fixation of a large anterior lamella over a smaller partially excised recipient cornea allows selective exchange of the centrally diseased host cornea under "semiclosed system" conditions, overcoming the threat of expulsion of intraocular structures posed by excessive vitreous pressure and possibly minimizing donor endothelial trauma.
