[Descemet's stripping endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK) in failed penetrating keratoplasty patients: graft survival rate and its associated factors].

Objective: To explore graft survival rate and its associated factors of DSAEK in patients with endothelial decompensation after penetrating keratoplasty (PKP). Methods: A retrospective case study was conducted, including 51 patients (51 eyes) that underwent DSAEK for endothelial decompensation after PKP in Department of Ophthalmology in Peking University Third Hospital from June 2009 to September 2017. The mean recipient age was (43.3±21.0) years. There were 36 males and 15 females. Data comprising demographic details,surgical methods, complications,follow-up durations,final states of grafts,preoperative and postoperative risk factors were collected. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to determine the cumulative probability of graft survival. Cox regression model was developed to examine for factors associated with graft survival. Results: Among 51 eyes,the overall graft survival rate was 78%(40/51). The cumulative probability was 85% (95%CI: 0.73-0.96) and 69% (95%CI: 0.52-0.86) at 1 year and 2 years, respectively. The median survival time was 42 months. The diameter of DSAEK graft and postoperative intraocular pressure correlated with the long-term survival of graft. Larger diameter of DSAEK graft was a protective factor for graft survival (HR=0.29, 95%CI: 0.12-0.73), while postoperative high intraocular pressure was a risk factor (HR=1.08, 95%CI: 1.00-1.16, HR=1.10, 95%CI:1.01-1.12). Recipient age, sex, lens status, the number of previous PKPs and previous glaucoma surgery had no significant effect on long-term survival (P>0.05). Conclusions: DSAEK is an effective treatment for endothelial decompensation after PKP,with favorable graft survival rate. Larger diameter of graft is beneficial to the long-term survival,while high postoperative intraocular pressure is a risk factor for graft failure. (Chin J Ophthalmol, 2019, 55: 428-434).
