Abstract:
The presence of Descemet membrane scrolls is an uncommon finding reported in syphilitic interstitial keratitis. We herein describe a novel surgical strategy for this entity; this report demonstrates that Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty surgery can be performed with excellent visual outcomes in the event of corneal edema as a late sequela of syphilitic keratitis.
