영문 초록

Purpose: To report the clinical outcomes of total corneolimbal transplantation in two cases. Case summary: One patient, who previously underwent three rounds of penetrating keratoplasty and limbal transplantation for uncontrollable peripheral and central corneal melting, received total corneolimbal transplantation. The other patient who underwent penetrating keratoplasty with limbal transplanation for a chemical burn and who did not experience corneal perforation also received total corneolimbal transplantation. During the average 19 months of follow-up, cyclophotocoagulation was performed to control high intraocular pressure in both patients. Both eyes were tectonically maintained without further corneal destruction despite poor visual acuity and rejection. Conclusions: Total corneolimbal transplantation may be an effective tectonic procedure for corneal melting. This procedure can be considered as another option for patients with corneal melting after failed limbal and corneal transplantation. J Korean Ophthalmol Soc 2011;52(10):1238-1243
