CXL / epithelial defects / stem cells
Posted: Thu 26 Apr 2012 8:05 pm
Hello all,
I just “discovered” a medical event that could be very important for future KC treatments and/or corneal epithelial defects.
In the IVO Clinic of the University of Crete (Greece), Pr. Pallikaris and his team applied a pioneering treatment of stem cells for corneal epithelial healing, to a 35 years KC patient, treated with CXL 1 year ago.
You can read an abstract of the method here:
