Rezidivierende Hornhauterosion bei epithelialen Hornhautdystrophien

2018

ZusammenfassungDas Hornhautepithel stellt die wesentliche abbildende Struktur des optischen Systems dar. Rezidivierende Hornhauterosionen können durch Entzündung, Trauma, Degenerationen und Dystrophien verursacht werden. Die epitheliale Basalmembrandystrophie (EBMD), die epitheliale rezidivierende Erosionsdystrophie (ERED) nach Francheschetti und die Meesmannʼsche epitheliale Hornhautdystrophie (MECD) führen jenseits unterschiedlicher Symptome und klinischer Zeichen – bedingt durch verschiedene Pathomechanismen – mehr oder weniger häufig zu einer Erosio corneae. Diese treten bei der EBMD fakultativ auf, wobei jedoch das Krankheitsbild der EBMD sehr versteckt sein kann. Die histologische Urs…

Franceschetti Hereditary Recurrent Corneal Erosion

2011

To describe new affected individuals of Franceschetti's original pedigree of hereditary recurrent erosion and to classify a unique entity called Franceschetti corneal dystrophy.Observational case series.Slit-lamp examination of 10 affected individuals was conducted. Biomicroscopic examinations were supplemented by peripheral corneal biopsy in 1 affected patient with corneal haze. Tissue was processed for light and electron microscopy and immunohistochemistry was performed. DNA analysis was carried out in 12 affected and 3 nonaffected family members.All affected individuals suffered from severe ocular pain in the first decade of life, attributable to recurrent corneal erosions. Six adult pat…

Lattice Corneal Dystrophy Type 1

2014

PURPOSE To evaluate the question whether lattice corneal dystrophy type 1 (LCD1) is of epithelial or stromal origin. METHODS The landmark of advanced LCD1 shows central superficial haze and paracentral stromal lattice lines. In 16 eyes of 8 affected individuals of 2 families, a penetrating keratoplasty was performed. The follow-up was 8 to 16 years after penetrating keratoplasty. Slit-lamp documentation of the patients was evaluated in direct and indirect illumination with dilated pupil to assess the horizontal and vertical pattern of new deposits on the corneal graft. Three affected patients of 2 families are demonstrated in detail. A DNA analysis was performed. RESULTS Gene identification…
