Zusammenfassung
Die Herpes-Virus-(HSV-)assoziierte Keratitis ist die häufigste Ursache postinfektiöser, persistierender Hornhauttrübung und stellt weiterhin eine wichtige Indikation zur Keratoplastik dar. In den letzten Jahren lässt sich ein Wandel in der Epidemiologie der Infektion und ihren Behandlungsmöglichkeiten beobachten. Ziel dieses Beitrages ist es, eine Übersicht zur aktuellen Entwicklung und insbesondere zu spezifischen Aspekten der Keratoplastik nach HSV-Keratitis zu bieten.
Abstract
Herpes simplex viral (HSV) keratitis is the leading infectious cause of secondary visual loss in the western world. Corneal stromal scaring is still an important indication for penetrating keratoplasty. Over the past decades the epidemiology of HSV infection as well as treatment strategies have changed. This review will address these recent findings with a focus on specific aspects of keratoplasty subsequent to HSV keratitis.
