Posterior fibrous pseudometaplasia of lens epithelial cells in phacic eyes filled with silicone oil

Abstract: Silicone oil instillation may result in the development of posterior fibrous pseudometaplasia, which is the final common pathway of alteration of lens epithelium and which was interpreted as a partial change, or change of certain characteristics of posteriorly migrated lens epithelial cells due to metabolic alterations.

“…Similar changes have also been observed in the posterior capsule in eyes filled with silicone oil. 9 The pathophysiology behind these epithelial changes is unclear. The mechanical stress produced by the presence of silicone oil and its contact with the lens might be responsible.…”

“…Die Linsenzellen unterliegen, wie kaum andere Zellen, einer ständigen UV-Exposition und somit zusätzlich zur Entstehung durch Autooxidation auch der ständigen physikalischen Entstehung von ROS [17,18]. Die Schädigung entsteht in der Linse vor allem durch Oxidation von Thiolgruppen (-SH) und der Bildung von Disulfidbrücken zwischen Aminosäuren, vor allem Tryptophan, Methionin, Histidin und Cystein [21]. Die unge- [14].…”

Es wird von einigen Au-toren angenommen, dass bei Gas-oder Silikonöltamponade die Funktion der Na + -K + -ATPase gestört ist, sodass Natrium nicht aus den Zellen heraus transportiert wird und Clsowie Wasser nachströmen und somit die Linsenfasern quellen [5,13,21]. Der genaue Mechanismus der Störung der Ionenpumpen ist jedoch unklar.…”
