Abstract

We examined the graft clarity and clinical outcome of 130 patients undergoing penetrating keratoplasty with donor preservation in either McCarey-Kaufman (MK) medium or moist chamber. We found comparable results with both methods of preservation in our two best prognostic groups. We feel MK medium is an excellent alternative to moist chamber preservation when used within 48 hours after the donor's death.

Allogenic & Autologous Therapies

Allogenic therapies are generated in large batches from unrelated donor tissues such as bone marrow. In contrast, autologous therapies are manufactures as a single lot from the patient being treated. Here is the latest research on allogenic and autologous therapies.
