Corneal Stroma Cell Density Evolution in Keratoconus Corneas Following the Implantation of Adipose Mesenchymal Stem Cells and Corneal Laminas: An In Vivo Confocal Microscopy Study

Abstract

A significant increase in cell density occurred up to 1 postoperative year at the corneal stroma following the implantation of ADASCs alone, as well as in those cases implanted with decellularized and recellularized laminas at the different levels of the analysis. However, this increase was significantly higher in the ADASC recellularized laminas.
