DSEK and DMEK are considered the procedures of choice in cases of endothelial dysfunctions.[1] Both intraoperative and postoperative complications do occur in DSEK and one among them is graft failure.[2] The repeat DSEK procedure can be easily performed in most of the failed cases with satisfactory results. DMEK is also considered as a feasible choice in patients with graft failure after DSEK.[3] Few reports suggest that results after DMEK as a procedure to treat graft failure after DSEK were as good as in patients that underwent DMEK.[4] Goh et al. reported a similar case of repeat DSEK done on a failed DSEK without removing it.[5]
