| Abstract: |
Purpose: to evaluate the surgical outcomes and possible complications of limbal stem cell transplantation procedures including keratolimbal autograft (KLAU) transplantation and keratolimbal allograft (KLAL) transplantation. Methods: This prospective interventional clinical trial included “17 eyes” of patients (with mean of age of 56.56 ±7.53 years) with limbal stem cell deficiency (LSCD), at Benha University Hospitals, in between May 2022 & May 2024.
