Item Simple Limbal Epithelial Transplant in a Patient With Limbal Stem Cell Deficiency Due to Chemical Burn(Başkent Üniversitesi, 2024-09) Leyla Asena; Mehmet Haberal; Sibel Oto; Dilek Dursun AltİnÖrsABSTRACT Limbal stem cell deficiency develops when corneal epithelial stem cells become dysfunctional or deficient. This deficiency leads to neovascularization of the corneal surface, persistent epithelial defects, scarring, and decreased vision. Simple limbal epithelial transplant is a relatively new technique to address limbal stem cell deficiency. Here, we describe a male patient with chemical ocular burn injury in his left eye that resulted in diagnosis of unilateral limbal stem cell deficiency. The patient was successfully treated with simple limbal epithelial transplant.Item Effects of a Fat-Rich Diet in the Pancreas of Rats During the Acute Phase of Burns(Başkent Üniversitesi, 2022-06) Neslihan Başçıl Tütüncü; Ayse Ebru Abali; Santiago J.
