PURPOSE: To evaluate the epidemiological and clinical profiles of corneal transplants performed in a reference eye center in Recife, state of Pernambuco, Northeastern Brazil.
METHODS: This cross-sectional study collected epidemiological and clinical data from the medical records of patients who underwent keratoplasty at the Altino Ventura Foundation between January and December 2017.
RESULTS: A total of 356 procedures were performed in 327 patients, of whom 165 (50.5%) were female. The mean age at surgery was 50.9 ± 22.6 years (range, 10-89 years). Most patients (n=152 [46.5%]) were from the capital and metropolitan areas. The mean waiting time for keratoplasty was 52.4 ± 58.9 days (range, 0-460 days). The main indications for keratoplasty were infectious keratitis (n=88 [24.7%]), keratoconus (n=80 [22.5%]), and previous transplant failure (n=75 [21.1%]). Penetrating keratoplasty was the most common surgical technique performed (n=213 [59.9%]) and more frequently performed in men (n=132 [76.7%]), whereas posterior lamellar transplant (n=143 [41.1%]) was more frequently performed in women (p<0.001).
CONCLUSION: Infectious keratitis was the main indication for keratoplasty, which was similarly performed in economically active adults of both sexes. Penetrating keratoplasty was more frequently performed in men and lamellar transplants in women.
