Abstract

Purpose: The aim of this study was to examine the influence of donor age on graft clarity. Methods: Records of 373 donor corneas and recipients of 550 penetrating keratoplasties between January 1998 and January 2001 were reviewed. Patients were grouped according to transplantation indication as high risked (herpes, aphakic bullous keratopathy, regraft, chemical burn, cataract and leukoma, desmatocele, active ulcer, vascular leukoma) and low risked (keratoconus, simple leukoma, pseudophakic bullous keratopathy, dystrophy).Results: Donor age ranged from 2 years to 85 years (mean 45), with 19% and 11% of donors being aged over 60 years at death in the high risked and low risked group, respectively. In the low risked group graft clarity was 80% with donor corneas being aged over 60 years at death and 83% with donor corneas being aged below 60 years at death. In the high risked group graft clarity was 53 % with donor corneas being aged over 60 years at death and 55 % with do-nor corneas being aged below 60 years at death. Donor age exerted no significant effect on graft clarity neither in the low risked group nor in the high risked group (p

Özet

Amaç: Donör yaşının yüksek riskli ve az riskli keratoplasti hastalarında greft saydamlığı üzerine olan etkisini araştırmak. Yöntem: Ocak 1998 - Ocak 2001 tarihleri arasında penetran keratoplasti yapılan 550 hastanın 550 gözü ve 373 donör korneanın kayıtları irdelendi. Hastalar keratoplasti endikasyonlarına göre yüksek riskli (herpes, afakik büllöz keratopati, rekeratoplasti, kimyasal yanık, katarakt ve lökom, desmatosel veya aktif ülser, vaskülarize lökom) ve az riskli (keratokonus, basit lökom, psödofakik büllöz keratopati, distrofi) olarak iki gruba ayrılarak incelendi. Sonuçlar: Donör yaşı en küçük 2 ve en büyük 85 (ortalama 45) idi. Yüksek riskli keratoplasti grubunda donörleri % 20'sinin ve az riskli keratoplasti grubunda % 12'sinin yaşı 60 yaşının üzerindeydi. Az riskli grupta greft saydamlığı 60 yaş üzerindeki donör kornealar ile %78 bulunurken, 60 yaş altındaki donör kornealar ile %82 olarak bulundu. Yüksek riskli grupta greft saydamlığı 60 yaş üstündeki donör kornealar ile %53 olarak bulunurken, 60 yaş altındaki donör kornealar ile %55 olarak bulundu. Donör yaşının ne yüksek riskli grupta ne de az riskli grupta greft saydamlığı üzerine istatistiksel olarak anlamlı etkisi bulunmadı (p
