A patient suffering from a progressive keratopathy which could not be identified clinically underwent penetrating keratoplasty. Light microscopy showed cholesterol deposits in deep stromal regions. Further ultrastructural investigations confirmed these findings and, in addition, fibrous long spacing collagen was found in that region; this represents a new factor in the possible pathogenesis of corneal lipid degenerations.
一位患有进行性角膜病变且临床无法确诊的患者接受了穿透性角膜移植术。光学显微镜检查显示在深层基质区域有胆固醇沉积。进一步的超微结构研究证实了这些发现,此外,在该区域发现了纤维性长间距胶原;这代表了角膜脂质变性可能发病机制中的一个新因素。
