目的:研究培养的角膜/角膜缘上皮细胞在人羊膜(AM)上移植治疗角膜缘缺陷的短期临床结果。设计:非比较性、回顾性干预病例系列。参与者:严重角膜缘缺损13例13眼(Stevens-Johnson综合征8只眼,眼瘢痕性类天疱疮3只眼,干预:将培养的异体角膜缘上皮移植到严重角膜缘缺陷患者的眼表。主要结果测量:研究了角膜上皮化的眼表重建、视力变化和术后并发症。结果:AM上培养的角膜上皮形成2 ~ 3层,基底膜样结构形成。术后有8眼(61.5%)上皮再生并覆盖眼表。然而,八只眼睛中的三只出现部分结膜浸润,两只眼睛后来出现上皮缺损。最后一次检查时,6只眼(46.2%)实现了角膜上皮化。5只眼结膜形成,1只眼真皮上皮形成,1只眼未上皮形成。并发症角膜穿孔4眼,感染性角膜炎2眼。结论:这项研究表明,移植培养异体角膜缘上皮上的AM的成功率是没有什么不同,从传统的角膜缘和AM移植治疗严重的角膜缘干细胞功能障碍。眼科学2002;109:1285-1290(C)2002,美国眼科学会。
Purpose: To study the short-term clinical results of transplanting of cultivated corneal/limbal epithelial cells on human amniotic membrane (AM) for limbal deficiency.Design: Noncomparative, retrospective interventional case series.Participants: Thirteen eyes of 13 patients with severe limbal deficiency (Stevens-Johnson syndrome in eight eyes, ocular cicatricial pemphigoid in three eyes, and chemical burns in two eyes) were treated at the department of Ophthalmology, Tokyo Dental College, Japan.Intervention: Cultivated allo-limbal epithelium was transplanted onto the ocular surface of patients with severe limbal deficiency.Main Outcome Measures: Ocular surface reconstruction with corneal epithelialization, changes in visual acuity, and postoperative complications were studied. Histologic examinations were also performed on cultivated epithelium.Results: Cultivated corneal epithelium on AM formed two to three layers with the formation of basement membrane-like structures. After the surgery, the epithelium regenerated and covered the ocular surface in eight eyes (61.5%). However, three of the eight eyes developed partial conjunctival invasion, and two eyes later developed epithelial defects. At last examination, corneal epithelialization was achieved in six eyes (46.2%). Five eyes had conjunctivalization, one eye had dermal epithelialization, and one eye was not epithelialized. Complications were corneal perforation in four eyes and infectious keratitis in two eyes.Conclusions: This study demonstrates that the success rate for transplanting cultivated allo-limbal epithelium on the AM is not different from the conventional limbal and AM transplantation for the treatment of severe limbal stem cell dysfunction.
