Single-Stage Bilateral Corneal Neurotization for Neurotrophic Keratopathy in Stüve-Wiedemann Syndrome: A Case Report and Literature Review

Jordan E Wiebe et al. J Pediatr Ophthalmol Strabismus. 2024 Sep-Oct.

Abstract

The authors report the surgical management and outcomes of neurotrophic keratopathy in two patients with Stüve-Weidemann syndrome who underwent single-stage bilateral corneal neurotization. Both patients experienced improvement in corneal sensation based on Cochet-Bonnet aesthesiometry measurements or cotton tip testing in addition to clinical improvement in ocular surface health.
