摘要

Purpose: To study the outcomes of therapeutic penetrating keratoplasty in fungal keratitis. Methods: This retrospective, observational, interventional case series involved an audit of 198 consecutive eyes that underwent therapeutic penetrating keratoplasty (ThPK) for fungal keratitis at L V Prasad Eye Institute between January 2008 and December 2010 was performed. The data on demographics, clinical characteristics, intraoperative, and late postoperative complications were noted. The primary outcome measure was eradication of infection and postoperative anatomical success. Secondary outcome measures were graft survival, risk factors, clinical features, and management of recurrent fungal keratitis post ThPK. Results: Mean follow-up after ThPK was 24 ± 17 months. A total of 178 (89.9%) eyes had complete eradication of fungal infection, whereas 20 (10.1%) eyes developed recurrence. Anatomical restoration was achieved in majority of cases (192 eyes; 97%). Larger infiltrate size was associated with a higher risk of recurrence of infection. The median graft survival rate was 5.9 months. The graft survival was better for grafts 8 mm versus those with 8 mm (P = 0.026) and not found significantly related to the species of fungus. Twenty-seven eyes underwent re-grafting: penetrating keratoplasty in 14 eyes, and Descemet's stripping endothelial keratoplasty in 13 eyes. Conclusion: As larger infiltrate prior to therapeutic keratoplasty had much higher risk of recurrences; timely surgical intervention should be considered in cases not responding to medical therapy. Alternative strategies of management of postoperative inflammation need to be considered to prevent graft failures.
