Motivos do descarte de córneas captadas pelo banco de olhos do Hospital São Paulo em dois anos

Abstract: RESUMOObjetivo: Analisar os motivos do descarte ou não utilização de córneas doadas, cujos tecidos foram captados, preservados e avaliados pelo Banco de Olhos do Hospital São Paulo no período de outubro de 2002 a setembro de 2004. Métodos: Estudo retrospectivo analisando os prontuários com as seguintes informações sobre as doações: história clínica e ocular do doador, idade, causa mortis, resultados de exames sorológicos, avaliação do corpo do doador, avaliação biomicroscópica da morfologia do globo ocular e d… Show more

“…With the exposure of the cornea, epithelial ulcers might occur, paving the way for epithelial stromal infiltration by bacteria. 10 The percentage of positive serology in this study was superior to that in a study conducted in Porto Alegre, where positive serology contraindicated 19.5% donations. The serology for hepatitis C and HIV presented higher indexes compared to those found in the study in São Paulo, where 2.9% of corneas were discarded because positive serology for anti-HCV and 1.0% for HIV were detected.…”

“…The causes for discarding corneas are stromal infi ltration, positive serology, time frame of transplant, poor quality and sepsis (14)(15) . Data found in the study above corroborate with the fi ndings of this study, in which the main causes that led to discarded corneas were poor tissue quality and stromal infi ltration, followed by anti HBc-positive serum.…”

“…This type of infi ltration makes tissue transplantation impossible, as the aetiology of the lesion is unknown (14) . Incorrect use of the capturing and preservation technique is one of the causes of corneal tissue loss (6,9) .…”
